@onepict @simon_brooke @Delphi @ScottishGreens Despite our local Labour candidate seeming to be a decent guy, I couldn't bring myself, in all conscience to vote for him, knowing that to be accepted by Starmer he couldn't be a true Socialist. I've had a long standing scepticism about The Green Party but that's how I voted this time. The first time in my life that I voted anything other than Labour!

The depressing thing is the party keeps splitting itself apart, as in the way Shirley Williams broke away to form the Liberal Democrats in collaboration with the Liberal Party. That was very different of course as it was a right wing faction splitting from Labour. The Left are constantly hammered by the right the pervasive power of the right wing media. I would certainly support and vote for a new party based on Socialism!
