Surely you are aware that they are the root of every problem in the Labour party and are not saintly people like Progress and Labour First.

Depends where you stand on Palestine.

On the Palestinians throats would be preferable for the Labour Friends of Israel

Shit joke. Starmer's not even the worst leader of a major British political party right now.

 

Boyle should stick to the more logical position of taking the piss out of disabled people whilst telling others not to mock trans people in case it hurts them. 

Amen

When did the bulk of the population ever think that?

I'd guess listening to the evidence of human rights watchdogs spotlighting the  children being forced into living in a modern day apartheid state might be a stand too far for some on the modern right-wing of the Labour Party.

About the same time as the British working class all became bigots and racists for rejecting the EU probably?

That's just not the case and never has been, despite what the Tories and their supporters in the media would have you believe when they're claiming a 'stonking mandate' for all sorts of hard-right anti-democratic policies.

 

Just look at the % of the vote the Tories got in 2019, the % of the electorate that voted, and the % of the UK population that make up our electorate. Then minus the % of people who voted Tory despite Johnson, and the % of people who voted Tory and now wish they hadn't. 

 

My back of a fag packet maths tells me that around 20% of the population think voting in Boris was a cracking idea.

Ashworth should have fucked off with that Change UK mob, as should most of the Labour front bench, Ashworth really shouldn't be in the Labour Party nevermind on the front bench. He's just a grinning little toad, very similar in stature to Matt Hancock.

When a politician says "our hearts go out to..." or " obviously I send my condolences to...." they really don't give a shiny shite. That said, it was just a misunderstanding, I'm sure there are better reasons than this for calling him a cunt.

Their most certainly are, see the story of how the gap toothed useless little diddyman helped fuck up Labour's last election campaign, shown in the link a couple of posts above.

How many people voted him in.and regret it?

I can't say, but given his personal approval ratings and party poll ratings are both down from where they were 2 years ago, I'd argue that more regret voting for him/his party in 2019 that wish they had.

 

My point is that there's nothing, and certainly no data, to suggest that the bulk of the population (or even a majority) think voting for him was a good idea. 

[Strontium]

Even in 2019, Johnson only got 43.2%, and I doubt even all of those thought giving him their vote was a "cracking idea".

Ok the bulk of the people who voted in the election, voted him in giving them an 80 seat majority.

Until very recently their ratings have stayed high but of couse that depends on high highly you rate the polls

Quite.

 

I doubt the Tories will get as much as 43.2% next time.
