Thatcherism with Italian characteristics
The Japanese phase of liberal democracy
Woah, never knew it was that bad. Guess Abe being such an outlier gave me the wrong impression. Good thing the universe corrected that mistake 
"drummer for a 70s rock band that somehow still exists" phase of democracy

Round and round we go
I saved this two years ago, and would you look at that - we're just about halfway round again
Oh hey Japan just discovered how to do this cycle
Neat
Australia is not on there and it damn well should be
Our government works so damn hard to be just as terrible as any euro government and we never get any recognition for it. 
Minor correction, Friedrich Merz is not an uninspiring centrist, he is the world's most boring fascist.
Iconic
As a nominal member of the UK Im far more invested in Peru's elections than whichever English public school alumni gets to be on the peripheral vision of all my news for the next 2 years.
public school means private school
what a country!
The ID laws and VPN bans just got 10 feet higher with the next PM so laugh while you can.
What a spineless piece of shit, and that was obvious even before Labour won. Way back in 2023 he was constantly flip flopping between transphobia and criticising Rishi Sunak for making transphobic jokes after Brianna Ghey got murdered.
Burnham isn’t going to be any better. Says a lot about modern day Labour that fucking Keir Starmer and Andy Burnham is the best they could come up with.
I welcome Starmer resigning, and I encourage him to go further.
It still somewhat surprises me he was a human rights lawyer.
That being said, I am convinced he represented the oppressors.
The kind of lawyer who hears devil's advocate and gets excited thinking it's a promising job position
We need good, sensible resignations, made by good, sensible Prime Ministers, made at the sensible time
Mum says it's my turn to be Prime Minister this week.
Wait appearantly that's Larry who has already outlived 6 prime ministers and 1 queen.
Larry has been in office for 15 years, with proper care he can easily outlive 10 more prime ministers and a king.
Learning a lot about UK politics today.
I don't understand prime ministers who resign. That would never be me. What? You don't like the job I'm doing? well too bad I'm not a quitter
I'd make them drag me from office
Saw something that could explain it. Possibly if they have to vote out the pm it would also trigger a general election
But maybe that's the pm causing it not the removal of the pm by a vote of no confidence? 🤷🤔
https://www.parliament.uk/site-information/glossary/motion-of-no-confidence/?id=32625
A motion of no confidence is a motion moved in the House of Commons expressing lack of confidence in the government or a specific minister.
Having the confidence of the House of Commons has been seen as central to a government's authority to govern in the UK. Traditionally, governments that have lost a confidence vote have either resigned in favour of an alternative administration, or the Prime Minister has requested a dissolution from the Monarch, triggering a general election.
Oh that would explain it. Yeah i would resign if it were a 2.5D chess maneuver to fuck my enemies

vindicated
don't worry honey, LONG LEGS CORBYN can't hurt you anymore
lol, not one PM has managed to serve out their full term since Brexit. That's SIX failed PMs since 2016!
The last UK prime minister to both come to power in an election and leave power in an election was Edward Heath.
I think this is so labor can do the Obama change bullshit before the next election. Its the new trick center (far?) right parties do to stay in power. Carney in Canada was the same.
oh my, what will the red tories think of next?
*fart noise*

No expectations of this leading to anything good but at least he got to eat shit
That'll teach the leftists in the party.
He was an ordinary bloke, but he did an extraordinary job!
The pessimist in me says he'll be replaced by someone even more conservative
Burnham isn't more conservative but he isn't really any more progressive either. I expect the differences in policy will be imperceptible.
Yeah 
His rhetoric will be softer. He won't be as vile to hear or watch. His policy will be functionally identical. The exact same people pull his strings.
He will somehow be cooler and more cringe than Starmer. That's impressive I guess.
Considering no lessons are being learned, it'll either be someone more conservative or at least equally conservative
Some UK Labour PMs are born red tory, some achieve red toryness, and some have red toryness thrust upon them.
Truly, one of the British Prime Ministers
~~Sheen~~ United Kingdom, this is the 7th time in a row you've shown ~~Ultra Lord~~ a new Prime Minister in class!
I wonder who the next empty suit they'll wheel out to impose austerity will be.
