Any other politician throughout modern political history would have their disappointed voters start something like this with “I voted for you but…”

I know I’m not saying what hasn’t been said a million times by now but it’s just so fucking weird.

Currently playing the Star Trek total conversion mod (which is excellent btw). Last night, as the Romulans, I took about half of the Federation’s territory in a war including Earth and genocided about 50 billion people. Everyone except for my cousin species the Vulcans. They get to be slaves.

Starmer is terrified of Reform. So he’s taken the really smart stance of pulling Labour to the right to court a demographic that would never vote Labour anyway, and in the meantime utterly piss off his core base.
