No, hatred is a very extreme emotion and not one I exhibit. My vote was based on the absolute mess the Tories have made of the country over the last 14 years. The fact that they have completely runout of ideas and have had to resort to cruelty and culture wars nonsense to compliment their xenophobia, shows how little they have to offer. The most important thing for me, and imo the best thing for this country, was to get rid of them, and in our constituency the only way to do that was vote Labour. | |||

Aside from Starmer once fumbled a question. Also, you and all of us should absolutely hold them to account if they don't do a good job. When I lived in a Conservative constituency, I wrote to my MP regularly to express concern about the way she voted and the things she campaigned for. | |||

"1. Labour won handsomely (sorry to state the bleeding obvious). 2. We have FPTP and that is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future. Therefore, Labour will probably get a two term mandate. 3. They have a free hand to do as they wish but the finances are already stretched. The new Chancellor has already said that there isn't much money in the pot. 4. Not sure what they will do for me personally that the previous shower would not have done. 5. I personally cannot see things being any better or worse economically. 6. I am still uncertain what else they will be able to do as so much of their manifesto was headline with no detail. " And the headlines were expensive. | |||

Just hope they are not practising their excuses already. | |||

"But dont see Labour doing anything about it Do you think that helping a confused bloke from a swingers forum should be one of Labours top priorities when in government?" Maybe introduce a bill that makes it compulsory that male members of site are guaranteed a meet within a year of joining . | |||

"Just hoping for a period of calm dull workmanlike politics, with grey suited accountants competently administering our country without fanfare, scandal or corruption. Please "Exactly. As Starmer himself said “a government that will tread lightly on us all.” It’s also quite promising that Starmer is appointing people to roles that they have experience in. What a change from appointing people who hated their brief and wanted only to destroy and change everything their office stood for. | |||

Hence the need for something less divisive and my suggestion for a gender Minister. Any causes of misandry, misogyny et al can be looked at, to ensure solutions don't unbalance equality.
It's definitely a whataboutery issue but fair enough when you consider rising numbers of male suicide as an example. | |||

" When all you have known is privilege, equality feels like oppression. Ahh, that must be why feminists feel threatened then. " A rather foolish answer. Pale, male, stale is historically the privileged group. Even today we discuss group sameness re hiring. We have to consciously be aware of NOT choosing someone on the basis of being the same. We have to be inclusive and diverse when hiring someone perfect for the job. Lameness runs deep into our subconsciousness. | |||

"The vast majority of reasons I've seen for voting Labour seem to be getting the Tories out - I've seen very little about what positive changes people think a Labour government will bring to the country. I can't really see that anything will change for me, but what do you think Labour will do for you? How will they change your own personal circumstances for the better? Less self serving, less corruption. Reasonably confident. Pander less to the fossil fuels industry. Not confident. Less division and less demonising elements of society and the electorate. Reasonably confident. Progress on environmentalism. Not confident. Just a bit of hope, but who knows. All of the above, but are they competent? Time will tell. Let’s be honest, they’d have to go some way to be more incompetent than the outgoing lot!" Agreed, but that doesn't set the bar very high! | |||
