Much like all British food is judged by the standard of what was available pre EU membership all American food is judged by the Midwest

Also true of Italy and Japan. Believe it or not most Germans in Bismarckian/Wilhelmine Germany didn't really care about grabbing colonies or doing much with those few the Empire managed to snap up in Africa and Asia. The colonial office had a hell of a time getting anyone to settle overseas, and not just because they were kinda crappy compared to what the British and French had stolen elsewhere in the world. Of course when it comes to "inflicting the same degree of human misery as France or the Brits," they certainly can't be accused of not trying their best.

The postwar "boom" in people being forced out to the southern hemisphere white colonies of settlement in the British empire was a very exceptional result of there being masses of excess shipping, millions of people whose jobs at home had been destroyed, and at least hundreds of thousands of refugees, war babies, and so on which the British government preferred to send literally to the other side of the world than deal with in a country that was so impoverished by "winning" another world war that it could barely feed its people or get roofs over heads.

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/sep/23/labour-members-in-open-revolt-at-union-backed-party-reforms Whats the story on this, it says that party members were chanting "shame on the unions!" Did the labour unions betray the party?

A lot of the unions are pretty right wing tbh Also there has always been an issue with union leaders being more willing to defend their cushy jobs than be radical left wing voices. The 80s NUM is the exception, not the rule

Angela Rayner wants to go full boomer authoritarian on the internet, hopefully Labour dismiss it out of hand and it gets no traction.

Unions prevented the right wing candidate from winning in 2010 (hence 1M1V), and are completely justified in trying to vie for power inside a party that is at least theoretically For Them. Don't be an ingrate.

Don't be an ingrate. I don't see how protecting the jobs of the Progress faction particularly helps the unions or anyone else on the left of the party, but it is a huge middle finger to Momentum and the rest of the grassroots left who helped deliver the 2017 election
