Merry Xmas!
Have liked plenty of their posts over the years, too.
But there's far more important things to get irritated about, than who likes who and why.
Maybe a "likes time is up" thread is needed

I dislike Starmer intensely.
There was no choice
Starmer seems to think in his tiny brain that we chose him as our great redeemer.
I repeat there was no choice
All Starmer has done thus far is retreat into Law and Order where he feels most comfortable.
They have already broken their promises on taxes, on energy costs etc etc
I repeat there was no choice
The man is an asshole

The word was little more than a (Baudrillardian) empty sign. Every time I heard a Nu Lab goon say it, I laughed.

The election produced pretty much the worst possible scenario of all the likely outcomes. A huge Labour majority on the back of a small share of the vote. So Starmer and his group will proceed effectively unopposed in parliament by either an opposition or their own backbenchers, but in the knowledge that their 'project' received a relatively bad reception at the ballot box, from which they will learn the lesson that they didn't go far enough to the right.

The rules for Labour Party Leadership elections have already been changed to ensure that a there will not be a left-wing candidate, as the nomination threshold is too high.
So, even if Starmer were to resign, which he will not, and even if there were a left-wing candidate, which there will not be, members of the party would not get a vote, should this proposal be approved.
However, were I to have remained a member of the Labour Party, I would have been able, with luck, to have got a Motion passed by my CLP, calling for the restoration of the Winter Fuel Allowance, and this may have gone to the Annual Conference and been passed, and, with luck and much wailing and gnashing of teeth, Reeves may have restored the Winter Fuel Allowance. And the outcome of all that effort would not be an actual advance, but simply a return to square one from square minus one.
