Not many will remember the 1964 election, won by Harold Wilson. The rallying cry at that time (imagine saying it in Wilson’s droll Yorkshire dialect) was “13 years of Tory misrule”. And 13 years of misrule indeed, from Suez, to Profumo, to mismanagement of possible entry to the then Common Market. Labour had introduced the Welfare system during their period in office from 1945-1951 but, as always, the electorate turned on anything that hurt them in the short term and put the Tories back in office in 1951. Labour then introduced really sensible policies, especially the National Plan and the Rent Act, only to be voted from office in favour of a pathetic set of Tories led by Ted Heath. Labour relations were then the downfall of Labour between 1974 and 1979, then of course the Tories held sway from 1979-1997. Labour almost always has short terms in office where it achieves seriously beneficial long term initiatives, which are then put in peril by much longer terms by incompetent and self interested Tories.
Ummm, you've forgotten a general strike, dead unburied, bins not emptied, 3 day week, power cuts, violence from militant left unions towards people who disagreed with them and didn't want to strike. Can you explain the benefits of those consequences of Labour please?
But this present Labour Party and Blair's version of it, are a travesty. They have both betrayed those it was meant to protect...Blair's War, Blair's PPP's for hospitals and schools, Brown selling off half the British gold reserves....The only thing Blair did well well was make loads of money for himself, and master the art of Spin. I was a paid up member of the Labour Party for years but they're all crooks, just like the other despicable party of late. As for Starmer.....there are no words, just in case I get imprisoned by the thought police.

I’ll explain. He lied about raising taxes. He hypocritically took loads of expensive gifts when he claims to be representing the working class. He weaponised the justice system and threatened rightly angry working class people. He took away the pensioners fuel allowance. He’s taxing family farms. He put liars in the great seats of government. His budget was a disaster for business and private sector workers. He’s fired missiles at Russia risking a world war over nothing. He’s increased wasteful spending. So as you can see we have our reasons.

You need name and address as well as an email registered to that profile. As well as the government has the current census data that is used to compare the details... so... no... not bots

Nope Blair got 43% of the vote in 1997 and only 35% in 2005. No government since WWII has had majority electorate support. Attlee came close in 1945 as did MacMillan in 1959 and Wilson in 1966 but with the recovery of the Liberal Party in the late 60s no PM has come close to even 45% let alone 50%

if around 20 million people voted at the recent election and only two and half million have signed the petition, doesn't that reflect a higher level of support for the Government?
also most of the signitories are from Tory strongholds, which only seems to be an afterthought.

When he calms down (does he ever calm down?) someone should patiently explain to young James that people elect a government at the General Election, not a president. So, if the individual who is prime minister goes, that party chooses another one (as Labour did in 1976). Without that straw man, this rant could have been about six or seven minutes shorter, leaving James more time to tell us how right he was about something else.
The Conservative party members (paid members) choose a new leader, that is vastly different to a general election where everybody chooses a new leader.
Would Starmer take notice if the 2 million were labour voters?. Him chuckling and saying not many voted labour, tells us everything, he's for the few that voteed labour but not for the many.
who said that? No one. Most? Obviously, but no one has said that everyone signing it is a brexiteer. Listen to what is actually being said, instead of hearing what you want to hear.
His shameless Labour supporting is annoying but he's right here. He called Donald Trump what he is. He called the Tories out on what they did. He stated the effects of Brexit which were voted for by a nation of bed wetting idiots who are easily misled. It's pretty cut and dry.
Eveyone signing the petition is well aware it wont acheive what it says, but it lets the people who feel like they are being shat all over by Starmer have an outlet for their frustration. Hopefully it gets mentioned in parliment at least.

Because that petition on the first go gained over 6 million signatures & in its second drew in about 4 million. The argument for there to be a second Brexit referendum are not only legitimate but only because we never voted to leave the single market but because Farage & Mogg amongst all others argued for a second referendum when the details were known.

The last person to originally gain their premiership from a clean win at a general election was Tony Blair.
Nope Blair got 43% of the vote in 1997 and only 35% in 2005. No government since WWII has had majority electorate support. Attlee came close in 1945 as did MacMillan in 1959 and Wilson in 1966 but with the recovery of the Liberal Party in the late 60s no PM has come close to even 45% let alone 50%

also most of the signitories are from Tory strongholds, which only seems to be an afterthought. "Two Million people signed a petition for a new general election ...... that were probably Tory voters"
