The UK makes me sad.

In light of guidelines with regard to politics et al, I figured I would post this here. I did not vote in today's elections in the UK. Because I believe Kier Starmer lied to the whole British people, and he is as slimy as a course of Frog's Legs in any French restaurant.

He did a giant bait and switch to get people to vote him and his party into power. Which, as someone who was raised in the North of England is practically heresy to talk about. Since he got in he has done his best to overturn freedoms, and liberties, just because he is, at heart, a lawyer. Very good at trying to spin how crap people have it.

I did not vote because the whole Reform thing is literally Trump's best UK ally... Nigel Farage. Who wants to tell you he's the common man when he's worth more than probably the top 10 companies in the UK, The guy wants to build concentration camps for people scared out of their minds.

No wonder he is best friends with Donald Trump.

Well my whole council is now under Reform control. Lets see if we still have a pride this summer now.

I hope you do.  This whole thing is like an 80's movie with Brian Glover.

Dare I comment on political matters.......

It stinks! I did not vote either for all of the reasons Lauren stated. I thought I might have voted for the Greens this year but they used a paper candidate, someone from South East England who did zero campaigning and knew nothing about the area and had no intention of moving up here to take up the post. Labour? Not on your nellie, Starmer is a liar, I'm sick of these elitist politicians pretending they care about the North. Tories, no chance I'm voting for them, Reform? Hell no the thought that they are headed for power in the next general election terrifies me. The Liberal Democrats didn't even put a candidate forward.

Things need to change fast if the country is going to avoid following in Trumps footsteps.

When starmer was a lawyer he was responsible for the factor 8 contaminated blood scandal, he did nothing to bring justice for those suffers and he is still not doing enough. Most of them will be dead before they get compensation. He's a total slimeball who is more interested in giving jobs to his mates.

I think I have managed to be quite muted there considering. I hope I don't get told off again!

Reform got in at my local Ward but the council has remained Labour but only because most of the seats weren't up for election this time around.

Look at that, Sarah.

You voiced your opinion and didn't get in trouble!

I think you are getting the hang of this politics thing. Maybe you should run for office.

I'd vote for you.
