The Labour Government

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Maybe if he wore some Dame Edna Everage style glasses people would forgive him?

Only if he paid for them.

A point lost on a lot of people, unfortunately.

It was a daft thing to do by the Labour Party. Really poor judgement.

If only she'd taken the advice I gave chippy_boy. Write the email. go away, come back and read it, read it again, go away, re-read and only then press send. Funnily enough he's not been back since!

What’s daft is it even being considered newsworthy, let alone the way it’s been subsequently weaponised.

Feels like everyone is collectively losing their heads at the mo.

The only people losing their heads are the bitter, rancid, right wing Tories desperate to deflect onto Labour.

Let’s be clear, all of the recent shite that doesn’t involve actual policy and is instead a smear campaign is right out of their well worn playbook.

Scumbags.

It’s counter productive too. Classic boy who cried wolf stuff.

It destroys their credibility and if something worthy of outrage actually happens, we won’t know if it’s genuine or not.

It’s not just that, it also makes them look ridiculous given it’s things they’re all doing themselves, and often they go further and actually do break rules in doing it.

It’s a continuation of their scorched earth policy. No intention of trying to work for the betterment of the country, just maliciously attempting to deflect from their own many many shortcomings.
The only people who fall for it are idiots, as highlighted by those on here jumping on anything, which in reality is unimportant, with glee.

Did you say the same about Farage and Truss ?No ... i thought not

Truss and Farage are individuals, and either no longer in power or haven’t actually been anywhere near it. So if they go to the US and appear at a rally, for example, there’s no repercussions in terms of the US-UK relationship after the election, because they have nothing to do with the UK government. No damage done.

The Labour Party sending staff over to help with the Democrat’s election campaign is an entirely different matter, as it inevitably suggests that the ruling UK party/UK government is taking sides in the election and openly preferring one outcome to another.

Depending on the election outcome, that could impact the UK’s relationship with its most important ally, and leave the UK worse off overall. That’s a party political issue impacting the UK, i.e. exactly what Starmer said he wanted to avoid. Once Labour gained power, they should not have allowed their staff to assist in the Democratic campaign, because doing so threatens the UK’s best interests.

Those are the facts of the matter, so I’m afraid a few crybabies on here will just have to deal with that, rather than pissing their pants when people spell it out for them.

It's because it's against their constitution whereas we allow it.

Canvassing as a non-US citizen is allowed provided they are volunteering to do so. I don't know, and probably nor do any on here actually know the employment status of those that are potentially involved. Apparently they have paid for their own flights and accommodated by party members in the US. it's actually quite clever of Trump to start lining up reasons to have another coup should he lose again.
