    No, but it is indicative of what leftists have been trying to tell liberals for the last 12 years. The current system is hurting working people more than any point since WW2, and everyone with eyes can see it. The fascists are telling people that the system is fucked because of immigrants, the left is telling people that it’s the capitalist class that is hording all the wealth, while the liberals are saying that everything is working as intended. Labour is going through the same issue that every other liberal party across the west is dealing with. No one trusts them because they are trying to implement rainbow capitalism and slap a fresh coat of paint over the institutional rot that is destroying people’s lives rather than make fundamental changes to society.

    Jezzer wanted to make the necessary changes to improve life for working Brits, and Labour dragged him over the coals for it. Look at Scunthorpe for example. Starmwr is going on about some liberal nonsense about finding an appropriate buyer for the steel plant, while Farage is calling for the facility to be nationalized. One of those options ensures that people in a critical industry have a job, and it isn’t the option the Prime Minister is advocating for
