I would bet my life’s savings that the social media ban is the reason for a new face on the government fucking you. They won’t roll it back because he believes in it too, but he is better trained on keeping his gobble shut. Nothing will change and you’ll be asked by all media figures and labour politicians to move on from the past. Hopefully at least it clears a path for the greens when they’re the only ones talking about reality as it actually exists.
My first thought was the other way around… Starmer knew he was on his way out and needed to push through the social media ban to repay the tech oligarchs that got him elected.
Either way Burnam needs to actually change tack, and TBH I’m going to take some convincing to not vote for the greens.
I don’t think a 180 should save labour here, personally. They’ve shown full complicity as their party and media infrastructure chose violence against immigrants and Palestinians.
A complete purge of Labour Together would help, but I am far from optimistic. If anything, Burham seems willing to promote some of the bad actors and bring back ethically compromised staffers, rather than taking out the rubbish. When people see a new frontman backed by the same old cast of dickheads, I don’t think they’ll be fooled for long, no matter how hard the media tries to carry water for Burnham.
Well I guess we’ll be looking forward to the 7th prime minister in 10 years. Just keep in mind They’d rather nuke the party than stand up for their constituents, minorities, labour, or stand up to Israel. Truly a pathetic party that even manages to make the Democrats look less crazy. Corbyn was their donor organ and they rejected him, so I guess now they’re committed to dying.
Sadly it’s nothing to do with solving the problem of young people Doom-scrolling, and everything to do with making money for ID services, while ensuring your advertising ID is tied to a government ID.
It is worrying how few media appearances he has done, and how light the questioning was when he did get interviewed.
If they think continuing with the same policies with a different presenter will work, Labour may end up fighting for 4th place in a couple of years.
Digital ID and this stupid Social Media ban needs to be binned on day one.

Meh, social media is awful for young people, anything that will reduce uptake is a good thing even if it is a bit nanny state

or possibly its the next step in eliminating anonymity entirely.
