    Two Tories defected to them, and neither of them were standing for election this time, it was just a gesture against Sunak (although I do wish Labour had told them to fuck off).

    And as for the S*n, they just put their weight behind whoever is going to win.

    Labour and Starmer are far from perfect, but I think they will be far better, even if just from a competence and basic human decency standpoint.

      I was a bit surprised the S*n did switch to Labour. From what I’ve heard there still a grudge amongst Murdoch and his minions towards Starmer, due the prosecutions he pursued as DPP during the phone hacking scandal.
