The Labour party has won over 400 seats (out of 650) in the 2024 UK General Elections, and Keir Starmer is expected to replace Rishi Sunak as Prime Minister. The Conservatives, in power for the last fourteen years, have suffered a rout, losing over two-thirds of their seats. The SNP has collapsed in Scotland, mostly to Labour, and the Liberal Democrats have gained over sixty seats.

Can we have some of this in the US, please? While we still exist.

Pretty sure our right wing is left of your left wing. So no you can't have it because you don't have a system that supports anything other than the right-wing hellscape you got now.

Yeah. There is no left wing party here. Decades of right wing propaganda have convinced our populace of the Ingsoc motto. 😭

Leadership that detests trans people and wants to genocide Palestinians? You're in luck, bud! You get that no matter who wins!
