    It is the constitutional entrenchment which is the most worrying. They are going to finish the job New Labour started in binding parliament with unaccountable courts and institutions. That alone will make it difficult for the native population to find a voice within the system

      I don’t know much about politics in the UK but I think your talking about the way the left grow government and bog everything down with beaurocracy. If that’s what you’re driving at, I couldn’t agree more.

      @@jefffrederick8648 Before New Labour we still had a system whereby Parliament was truly sovereign. Blair tried to americanise the system by bringing in a supreme court and by introducing civil rights type legislation. We have also increasingly signed on to international agreements (many of them courts which change over time). Also, we have things called quango's whereby the elected representatives essentially hand off responsibility for lots of things to a committee of "experts". The upcoming labour government intends to introduce a new upper house to replace the lords which would have certain veto powers over the parliament. They are basically destroying our democracy in the name of preserving human rights.

      @@LS-xs7sg thanks for the explanation. When labour or any government agency starts making decisions about human rights it often means stepping into murky territory where rights can be interpreted in many ways and defending those rights too often means stepping on the toes of other humans who also have rights. Call me old fashioned but when it comes to government I think less is more.

      Labour tends to be experienced as a period of intense agony, and strife for all involved, followed by a couple of decades of vastly increased expenditure ...

    I think about how secretly it is popular to send foreigners back, but no party dares do it. The rich mega donos would stop sponsoring the politicians if they tried it.
    Not only do we need zero seats, we need zero sponsors.

    The Tory party has been an economic disaster. Starmer will need to negotiate social policy very carefully because the electorate seem quite sophisticated wanting more egalitarian but responsible economic policies but quite conservative social policies

    I had a son via surrogacy and I would like the law liberalised or at least brought up to date. It does not make much sense to me and I have to pay my lawyers more money to get a parental order than I paid the agency, IVF clinic and maternity clinic put together.

    I’m concerned about Labour on certain issues (mainly the ones Miriam mentions) but I think they’ll be better than the Tories on most issues. So I’m voting Labour and praying very hard at the same time!

      Why not give your vote to someone else. It's not a two-party system so don't throw your vote at someone you don't like.

    A couple of straw men from 4:48 to 5:01.
    I want the legal system to do some important safeguarding steps, but beyond that it should do nothing to impede people from making (& implementing) their own decisions about whether their lives should continue. This doesn't entail anything along the lines of what Miriam said.

    I'm not as educated on UK politics...certainly as UK citizens. But from a US perspective, I can't imagine Labour moving the needly on anything so much that, it would change life globally or politics globally. Labour seems to have a very similar platform of foreign policy to the conservatives, always a few extreme politicians excepted.
