what do you think of boris's handling on covid and will have another tory governement

Until we get a competent opposition we will remain a one party state.

And as long as Labour keep living in fairy land that will never happen. They need to choose between the (WHITE) working classes and their radical left wing students (and their pro mass immigration, anti white politics) They can’t have it both ways.

My prediction is there will be no split and the next leader will disappoint you. There’s very little to force your hope anytime soon and the ERG don’t have the numbers to put up anybody hard (we got Boris because the MP’s defecated themselves after the local/Euro elections).

I don't like Boris's handling of Covid but it's not a big priority for me and I think we should have just carried on as normal like Sweden, Brazil or Florida which is a niche opinion.

I can't see how the Tories could lose in 2024. Labour are as per above screwed and are kept alive by rigor Mortis and safe seats in primarily "diverse" seats which would elect a donkey if it had a red rosette.

Boris, despite only caring about himself and being completely lacklustre with a cabinet of mediocrities has managed to turn the UK into an effective and mildly popular one party state.

My prediction and hope is that the Tory party gains even more seats at the next GE and when Boris steps down we see a split in the Tory party between the liberals and the Conservatives. Then the real fun can begin ⚡⚡⚡⚡

what rigor moris ?

The Spanish left won and are comfortably ahead in polling

The Polish left also now leads in polling

The Swedish left looks unchallenged for the win.

The Dutch liberals also won if we count them.

Fixed that for you. 👍

Of course if we expand the goalposts to second or third there's more of interest but my point in the main was that the rise seen post refugee crisis has in the main abated and that the left is sadly not as weak as it was. Even in states where the right is strong, Italy aside it is still mostly the broad establishment right holding on.

Populism doing well is not good enough if it can't win and govern.

Pretty much correct, but in simplistic terms they need to cut off the likes of a Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott in order to form any basis of an opposition. Far to many wishy washy left wing utopians. Also stopping their incessant support of criminals wouldn’t be a bad shout.

I disagree to some extent actually. I don't think labour can win no matter what they do and the problem started with new labour NOT Corbyn.

People seem to forget Corbyn GAINED seats in 2017. Now tbf this can largely be attributed to how awful May was. But I don't think it explains everything.

The reason I think labour lost so badly in 2019 was because , instead of focussing on its (popular) economic policies and accepting brexit (which it did in 2017) it instead pivoted to supporting loony woke ideology, open borders and the insane second referendum. NOTE- it wasn't the old commie far left who pushed for this but the "moderates" like Starmer, Benn and Kendall.

See this is where I disagree. While I despise the left and close to every single thing that they stand for, Labour fundamentally chose to represent the best interests of the working classes by campaigning firstly to remain, but secondly to look at Brexit again. It’s working class voter base will be the people who have been, and will be hit hardest by Brexit, all Labour did was try to campaign for the best thing in their voters interests, it may not have been what they wanted but it was certainly in their best interests to remain.

The commie far left are now a side show that needs removed. Let them form their own party of woke, virtue signalling identity politics and see how they fare in a general election.
