Introducing my UK Political Quadra chart.
This is not based on how a politician/party is in policy, it's more about their strategy. British political strategy can be sorted onto 2 axes. One indicates stimulus vs austerity, meanwhile the other represents inclusion vs nationalism.
The @LibDems have called for a Universal Basic Income. Labour, the supposedly left-wing party have not.
That's right, The Lib Dems just out-lefted Labour.
If there's any time to stand for a Universal Basic income, now's the best time to do it. It shows how weak Starmer is.
Going into a second lockdown, but schools are staying open.
You wonder why I can't take any of this seriously anymore. The government is keeping the biggest hotbed of new cases wide open.
It's almost as if reopening schools was a BAD IDEA. xitter.cf/i/events/1304404673013…
The government banning countries due to the pandemic is the illusion of action. Cases are going up in the UK and the government isn't doing anything domestically.
Woo. Riding the Davey Train! xitter.cf/britainelects/status/1…
Guess Northern Ireland is like... NOPE! We're not going through that too! xitter.cf/i/events/1295282363472…
These numbers are lower than Jeremy Corbyn's numbers with young people. At best, equal with his 2019 numbers. Far below his 2017 numbers with 18-19 year olds, where Corbyn got 66% of the vote. Proves my point, Starmer is losing the youth vote. xitter.cf/ElectionMapsUK/status/…
Westminster Voting Intention (16-18 year olds):
LAB: 61%
CON: 20%
GRN: 7%
LDM: 6%

True but we need a functioning opposition too
Which we don't have
Instead we just have a leader of the opposition who just says meaningless platitudes without any substance or critique of policy.
If you're focusing on a plastic dinghy off the coast of Dover instead of the mass, systemic downgrading of grades across the country...
... You're part of the problem.
Somehow Starmer keeps getting worse and worse. #StarmerOut xitter.cf/Keir_Starmer/status/12…
My message to the Prime Minister: I don’t just want all children back at school next month, I expect them back at school.
No ifs, no buts, no equivocation. dailymail.co.uk/debate/artic…
This better radicalise people.
I hate this country when it comes to this. Britain lays down on its knees whilst it gets shafted.
France and Spain rise up and organise.
Britain needs strong unions that don't stand for these attrocities. xitter.cf/doctor_oxford/status/1…
So. The grades of 4.6 million GCSEs – 97% of the total – are about to be assigned *solely* by another Ofqual algorithm.
Teacher-assessed grades submitted by schools will *not* be considered.
EVEN AFTER THE A LEVEL DEBACLE.
This stinks, @BorisJohnson.

This is the Starmer strategy.
Bad thing happens (racism, homophobia)
Starmer gives a statement
The media cheer him on as the return of Labour.
Starmer proposes no policies to fix the issue.
Repeat.
Oh, case in point: xitter.cf/Keir_Starmer/status/12…
Hey, Labour simps of Israel, going to say anything?
Sir @Keir_Starmer, you're strong against hate, you going to demand the government stop giving money to Israel?

BREAKING: Palestinian children in Jerusalem cry "Where will we live?" as their home is bulldozed in front of their eyes in the middle of the night! This is child abuse!
Israel have bulldozed hundreds of Palestinian homes this year so far.
#FreePalestine
Starmer is so fking weak. xitter.cf/Rachael_Swindon/status…
Why aren’t you calling for Gavin Williamson to go immediately?
