best thing about this style of insipid opposition from Starmer is I won't even give a shit when US style voter suppression is employed by the tories.

The trick is to spend as much money on it as you can. Pure, unalloyed belief will follow.

There are more replies dunking on him than supporting him fwiw.
I know I've ranted about the preposterous length of this leadership contest but I didn't expect capitalism to end in the middle of it.

For all our sakes I am appealing to Boris Johnson personally to just get on with it now and introduce measures to enforce social distancing. In London especially we can’t wait any longer. Lives are at risk. https://t.co/wwEHfiHghf— John McDonnell MP (@johnmcdonnellMP) March 23, 2020

The Labour membership that voted for Starmer still trying their best to conceal their buyers remorse and talk up this wet lettuce while inwardly despairing.

PM to address nation at 8:30pm. lockdown? their comms have been chaotic and they still haven’t done anything for the self-employed. would be pretty bad imv. people today in the park were being v considerate about each others’ space presumably because this weekend was the first time when serious comms about social distancing were available (tho that still wasn’t thru government of course). see jim waterson’s piece here.

NEW: The government hasn't run a single ad about coronavirus from its official Facebook or Instagram accountsOr the PM's official accountOr Boris Johnson's personal accountDespite being offered millions in free ad credits by Facebookhttps://t.co/psC1wXT2rF— Rowland Manthorpe (@rowlsmanthorpe) March 23, 2020
the Conservative Party piss away millions on FB advertising during election campaigns but can't even be arsed using free ad credits to help save lives during the worst public health crisis in a century.

Speaking to the nation, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson says the coronavirus is "the biggest threat this country has faced for decades".
He says "without a huge national effort" there will come a time when "no health service in the world could possibly cope; because there won’t be enough ventilators, enough intensive care beds, enough doctors and nurses".
maybe, but it would certainly cope a lot easier if we had actually looked after the NHS properly you absolute fucktards

I went to not-so-aptly-named Costcutter this afternoon, they had a selection of essentials including piles of toilet paper, but everything cost 2 or 3 times what it should usually. A man was having an argument with the cashier because she wouldn't let him buy three £5 bags of fusilli, he had to get his girlfriend in from the car to buy the third bag.
