Nope. It is literally impossible for Labour to get in and make things worse. There is *nothing* they could do to make the situation worse.
A lettuce could be Prime Minister and things would still get better. That's how far down the Tories have dragged government. Even staunch Tory voters are going

"D'yknow what - I reckon we give Starmer a go..."

Their biggest problem at the moment is that if there were an election now, they wouldn't just be beaten, they would be utterly destroyed. A landslide of cataclysmic proportions. They have reached the point where polls show that they would have 2 mps in parliament if there were an election. That isn't bad. That is beyond bad. So far beyond bad that even if they start running now and run for two whole years, they may still be too far away to recover.

It's the ultimate f*ckcluster s*itshow. There is no parallel in our political history for where we are now. It's that bad.

I didn't say they could make it any worse, I said if they didn't improve things.

You don't think I'm offended in any way by all this anger do you, there all lying sh*tbags In my opinion and nothing really changes, just look back to '78 when sunny Jim was in charge.

But you prefer the Tory lying shitbags to the Labour lying shitbags?

What was so bad about 78/9 and Callaghan that made him a lying shootbag?

Taking what I said a bit too literal there, the situation hasn't changed that much since then is my point.

I'm sure you can throw plenty of stats and figures up to say differently but inflation was rocketing and the country was fed up with the current Government just like now, maybe history will repeat itself and Labour will come in and sort it all out like Maggie did.

Oh, she wasn't any good either?

And if Labour get in next time will it be the fault of the Tories or the previous Labour government or the one before that etc etc?
We're you happy until 12 yrs ago?
Was this forum going during the Blair years and what was the general feeling back then?

I was too young to ride a bike in those days so hadn't joined the CC forum then. :whistle:

Well, no, the point that was being made was that the Tories have spent much of the last 12 years blaming the problems that they created on the preceding years that Labour were in power, or, quite remarkably but seemingly often unnoticed by their supporters, promising to fix the problems that "the previous administration" made, which of course was usually them.
We're in a very bad place now, whoever is in power is going to have a massive job ahead of them. Perhaps you can point to what the Tories have improved over the past 12 years, what would you like to see more of. I mean sure, off the top of my head, food banks, inequality, NHS and GP wait times, relative poverty, hate crimes, the wealth gap and homelessness have all increased over the last 12 years, but I wouldn't consider that an improvement.

Is that a shortage of close family members, or, a revelation? ;)

If things in the party stay as bad as they are for the next 2+ years.

Lots will happen between now and the election and these figures will change.

Which is why the Tories are desperate to stave-off a general election right now, even getting Boris back they're so scared....
