It’s time to build a new kind of political party - one that belongs to you. Join the movement at https://in.yourparty.uk/.
Unofficial Lemmy community for the new party led by Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn in the UK.
Rules:
Party name is a dud, surprised they stuck with it. Putting Jezzer anywhere near it is poison if they are trying to win a majority.
Prediction:
This gains a decent amount of traction, hoovering up disillusioned Labour voters. Mostly from the lower age brackets.
Votes end up split between Reform/Tory on the right and Labour/YP on the left. Green, LD and other votes will further muddy the waters, diluting the overall result.
We'll end up with another coalition brought about by a hung parliament if the 'challenger parties' do well enough to get a decent amount of seats. I don't think either of them are winning outright though.
If the challengers don't pick up enough votes concentrated in the enough places, they'll be in the same place UKIP was at their peak - loads of votes all spread out and a paltry amount of MPs to show for it.
Not looking good to me, whichever way it goes.
If you think the party is sticking to the name. You have failed to do the minimal research needed to express an opinion on the parties plans.
My bad. It's easy to seize on. Hope whatever is chosen works well (and the sooner the better).
Next general is going to be interesting. The locals next May too.
With the mess that has happened. And the lefts willingness to reject. I think it may be over.
The right has always been willing to come together just to keep the left out.
We on the left tend to split or not vote. Over any idealistic difference. I'd be happy but surprised if this doesn't kill of your party. Before a real name is selected.
But will leave my tiny monthly donations and membership until it's dead. And hope for the best.
