    Always good to see a fascist flee, but it seems the UK is stuck in a death cycle of just constantly refreshing all their leaders, unable to accomplish anything. Don’t get me wrong, having a facist leader is way worse, but like what is the way out of this?

      Farage is the leader of a party with 5 seats in parliament, he’s not the leader of the country, although the party did make significant gains at winning many local councils in May.

      The changing of Prime Ministers who are failing is a good thing, Starmer is out because he has the worst approval rating ever seen, and Labour lost a huge number of votes in both national elections in Wales (Labour heartland) & Scotland, as well as a huge swing against them in English council elections. Labour MPs worked out they better do something as this strategy is failing.

      Is it better to keep doing something that clearly isnt working, or try something else ?
