@jonquark@mastodon.org.ukThe UK local election results so far are fairly grim. People are understandably cross with #Labour, they have put themselves in an awkward position where they have effectively promised not to raise any of the maIn sources of tax when demands on the treasury are rising.
The Reform party cannot be the answer. They are a collection of easy answers to problems where there are no easy answers. …

@pre@boing.worldI see Starmer is once again taking to the national stage to tell everyone that Reform are correct, that Reform have accurately described the source of the problems of British people.
Telling everyone that migrants are a problem, that migrants are causing trouble, that migrants need to be cracked down upon.
And then he somehow thinks this will make people more likely to vote Labour?
It's basically a massive country wide national advertising campaign for Reform.
Well done Labour. When you lose it will be your own fault.
