    Britain will stop being idiotic and will quit electing Tories any day now. Anyyy day.

      How long has it been? 10 years? 12 years? They got one rigged referendum, one 6 yo tantrum, one pandemic, one recession and one dead royalty.

      I say that had enough.

        To be fair the Tories are probably not to blame for that last one.

          I dunno, QE2 had to meet up with Truss, a couple days later she’s dead.

          I mean I’d have a brain aneurysm if I had to meet lettuce lady, who’s to say Lizzie didn’t ?

        I just googled. The last non conservative PM was Gordon Brown in 2007. 😬

            Yeah, still way way better than the tories. IMO a labour or libdem parliament wouldn’t have let brexit happen.

            Just FYI I’m speaking from the perspective of an American with friends/family in the UK, so I may be a bit ignorant on the topic.

          I read somewhere their policies are about 10 degrees of difference so we just tack one way for 10-15 years and then back

              They might actually process the asylum claims rather than leaving them in limbo and unable to work, and actually benefit the economy instead of being a cost

                  We need clean economic growth to fund services, Labour is probably our only chance now the Tories have lurched to the right.
