Rosena is right, but Labour's power base has been fundamentally weakened by @theSNP owning the Scottish progressive vote and some of its voters falling to populism. Under #FPTP its representation is diminished.
Yet all these parties are singing from the same hymn sheet. The differences between them no different from the difference between factions within Labour itself.
Stop. All of you. Wake up. Stop fighting each other.
Marcus Rashford has more power over this government than Parliament does.
Parties put so much energy into railing against every failure of the regime. Why not put some of that energy instead into changing the rules to *guarantee* that 2024 will mark the end of our decline?

The #BrexitDeal is better than #NoDealBrexit in the same way that shooting yourself in the leg is better than gouging your eyes out with a rusty spoon.
But congrats to the tories who gambled the country to silence the ERG, lost, and reinvented themselves as UKIP to survive.
We now begin a period where the British are second-class citizens in their own continent, less free than Romanians, with less say over our continent than Malta. Where uniquely, British businesses fight with one arm tied behind their backs with red tape, delays and costs.
Our buying power has withered overnight. We're paying almost double for our #COVIDVaccine than EU citizens. Supporters of the #VoteLeave regime demand you clap like seals as their second-rate trade deals trickle in, a notable absence being a US trade deal after 4 years.
1. #ShapeShiftingCreeps make bad leaders 2. Voting them in made you poorer & less free 3. Your children despise what you've done to their country and future 4. The majority, won't accept this gutter you expect us to live in now.
Remember when they told you there were no downsides to #Brexit?
Now they're telling you that trading with the US isn't important.
At what point do you wake up and realise these are the instructions for turning a country into North Korea?
When the Nazis invaded Poland they took control of the media to pump hate propaganda, stripped people of their freedom, looted the country's reserves, attacked the judicial system, farms, the arts, libraries, universities & neighbouring countries.
1) 🇬🇧 will continue its descent into corruption, failure, misery & poverty under #EndlessToryRule.
2) Our ONLY way out is to build a broad-church coalition opposition capable of winning #FPTP at the next election.
If you're not for (2), you're for (1). End of.
Today it's the mismanagement of #Covid19. Tomorrow it will be #NoDealBrexit. The next day it'll be #JudiciaryAttacks. The next will be #ContractsForToryDonors.... It will never end unless the *majority* who have always been against this start to work together.
EVERYONE.
So:
Left wing labour versus 'Centrist' Labour. SHUT UP and work together.
Labour versus LibDems: MERGE or COALITION.
Swallow your differences. Swallow your pride. See the bigger picture.
WORK TOGETHER. Or there's literally no point to any of you.
You might remember how Theresa May's government has helped the corrupt. She ended an investigation into Arron Banks and ICO were prevented from searching Cambridge Analytica's offices until they had shipped out all their documents.
