The response amongst die in the wool conservatives seem to be less hurt than the response amongst the far left of the Labour Party to these opinion polls.
I have some sympathy*. In less than 3 years they’ve gone from running the Labour Party to near irrelevance, while seeing the team they said wouldn’t appeal to anyone open up a record-breaking lead over the Tories. And worst of all, all those ‘centrist dads’ and ‘melts’ will be able to claim to be part of what put the next Labour government in power, and part of making life better for the people who need help the most. As opposed to part of a clusterfuck that handed Boris Johnson a huge majority.
It’s a hell of a reality check that not only did no one believe in their policies, but that loads of people believe in the policies of the people they loathe even more than the Tories.
*Ha! Just kidding. I think it’s fucking hilarious. I’d expect alleged paediatric doctor guy would be making another fake account to shitpost in some vain scream into the abyss, but he’s probably had an aneurysm at the fall of the absolute boy and the rise of ‘Keith’. Get well soon, buddy!
