The Tories had better hand over government to Starmer quickly, because there's no possible way they can blame Labour for this one. Blaming Brown and Blair for everything has already gotten extremely long in the tooth; in a few years, there will be voters that will have never lived under a Labour government.



"Chaos with Ed Milliband" was their catchphrase, now they don't even have Bounty chocolate in Celebration boxes anymore. Disgraceful


The banishing of the Bounty is one of the few purely good pieces of news we've had! I mean I'll cave a few days after Christmas and eat them but I'm not happy about it.


They'll do it. And plenty of people will eat it up. Because they don't mind losing, as long as others lose more.


Are they brave enough to take the immediate loss for what might be a longer term strategy ... that may or may not pay off?


This would be like the turkeys voting for Christmas. And we're talking about a party that consists mostly of extremely self serving members.

The drunk at the wheel is here to stay until the next natural GE.


It's Labour, and it's Starmer. The Tories will have government back in no time, with a clean slate.
