The Democrats are in deep trouble in the US – and Labour is on the way to joining them | Nesrine Malik
Labour is way past that. Kier Starmer has engorged himself with lobby funds so much he’s acting almost worse than the Conservative Party in the Uk.
Labour is a party of no one but capital.
And is literally eugenicist. What fucking “left wing”, party, cuts disability benefits, plunging an expected hundreds of thousands into poverty, than legalises assisted dying for disabled people. Within the same month.
That’s about as close to exterminating as you can get under neoliberal logic.
They all work for the same oligarchs. So it makes sense that core policy wouldn't change.
Jfc. Did this really just happen?
They made a slight change so that people with low levels of disability wouldnt get as much support and paired it with making getting a job not cut off all disability benifits immediately. When that change got huge amounts of pushback from labour MPs they watered it down. Then a private members bill (So coming from an individual MP) with no support from the government got passed allowing people who have less than six months to live get assistance in ending their own life if they get approval from a panel of a judge and care experts, that change has overwhelming support in the country.
The grandparent post is catastrophising.
