I would feel much better about politics in the world in general if every time a vastly unpopular right wing politician was being voted out, that country's "left" didn't haul out the most conservative ghoul they could find in their crypts to run the show and destroy all popularity in the next round.
Keith Starmer for Labour?
Biden for the Democrats?
These were choices.
@PatrickoftheG we needed Corbyn and Sanders.
@burnoutqueen It's just going to happen again too. Trump will have run things so badly for most people that they're going to oust his party next round, and the Democrats will open up their vault and find a Biden-style vampire to make sure they squander any momentum.
@PatrickoftheG@mastodon.social Don't forget the current batch of Liberal leadership candidates.
You know what? Nevermind. Forget them.
@driusan A race for austerity between a man so austere the UK wanted him, and austerity with a Nazi grandfather.
Beautiful.
