Like you can't claim benefits already without being documented with home office approval. Employers who use undocumented workers already know that they're breaking the law, and still do it anyway. This wouldn't change anything.

Lol at the idea of Starmer coming out with a coherent line on anything.

Even if Starmer Labour do come out with a coherent set of policies, he's already told us he'll lie to get elected. If the next Labour manifesto contains anything good at all, why should we believe it will be implemented?

here's an idea: instead of pandering to the votes of the centre right, maybe pander to the votes on the left that already voted for your party under a different, popular leader? just a thought.

amazingly, the best case scenario for the next election is Ed loving Balls as Labour leader, and even then he's going to absolutely fail

What's "funny" is that New Labour least realised they had to give some indication that they would do left wing stuff to string unions and leftists along as part of their coalition, even if they never had any intention of doing that and many said so at the time. Obviously this is a pretty big part of why New Labours support collapsed very quickly after they took power Starmer & co seem to actively not want leftists to vote for them and would rather lose with 20% of the vote from Tory swing voters than win with 35% of the vote that includes anyone to the left of Margaret Hodge Basically the only real hope for Starmer is a Lib Dem resurgance that nicks loads of seats from Tories which, lol

There are a few nascent parties of that ilk but rather small at the moment. There isn't one that's captured the hearts and minds in sufficient quantity yet to be considered 'the' party. I'm quite liking Breakthrough Party (following on FB) but nowhere near signing up.

This, plus the brain disease of left-labourism that leads otherwise good people to insist being marginalised inside a party led by people who would happily have you lined up against a wall and shot if they could get away with it is better than striking out into the wilderness and 'throwing away your vote' on a new party
