    Don’t fuck up the next 4 years. It’s quite simple. Don’t drop the ball like America did.

    Get the people to like you. Force the rights hand to acknowledge the good.

    Shout from the rooftops that you’ve deported more people in 6 months than the tories did in 6 years. It’ll be hard to ignore them, and deformers can’t say there’s millions on boats coming in.

    The popular tactic of trumps lot is to tell straight up lies constantly until it becomes truth. Illegal border crossing down year -on-year? Nah, there’s waves and waves of them coming in, at never before seen numbers. Everything is awful, only we can save you.

    Etc etc. it pains me to see Labour fuck up the messaging in basically everything, and you get the knuckle draggers on social media with their “2 tier kier” and “frozen pensioners” and “stealing farms inheritance”. Might just emigrate and stop reading the news. Just so disappointed in…well everything.

    It’s all just happening in slow motion before our very eyes and it seems no one is doing anything about it. The rise of popularist gaslighting fascism.

      The problem with this analysis is that it assumes Labour aren’t just as racist as reform. They both are racist, neither actually want to stop immigrants. Both require migrants for cheap labour to keep the gravy coming. They represent different factions of capital.

      Labour appealing to the right wing talking points isnt some cynical ploy to maintain power - its just what they think. No one who actually cares about immigrants would pander to those talking points.
