Question from Rain Dog on the US presidential thread

"Yesterday the people of the UK voted for moderation in politics."

Seriously?

We have ended up with a party that is too far right for your tastes because a lot of people have voted for a far from moderate party.

Yes, seriously. We have booted out the showboating and stupid antics of the Eton Mess caused by Cameron, Johnson and the rest over the overprivileged crew. My comment about too far right was referring to Starmer but the Labour party is still based on the left wing principles of caring for those in need. It is my hope that ot will remain left of centre with repesentation from both sides of the party keeping excesses from either side in check. Reform took votes from the Tories but I do not believe that is how Labour won. If Reform had not have been there, the votes still would have cast aganst the Tories - Just in a different direction.
