Nothing statesmanlike about him.

Old footage I've seen of Michael Foot from the early 80s in documentaries had him looking smarter than Johnson.
Yet the media called him scruffy all the time.

Johnson has a Fat belly, still
despite his early runs with his dog.

It doesn't matter, labour will never be electable again, and especially not with Starmer in charge, and no other party is in a position to challenge the cultish hold the tories have on people.

A tory supremacy is all I can see, and they'll slowly erode our rights, our public services and people will gladly vote for them to do so. There's no hope for this country.

There is great hope for this country for those who don't see negativity everywhere and don't spend their time continually moaning and whining and blaming.

He is an ineffective coward and I don't care what he has to say unless it's a resignation.

What's to say all these people without photo id would even vote for Labour anyway (or against the Conservatives). Bit strange to assume.

I saw a graph on Twitter yesterday, that basically detailed that tory voters are more likely to have Driver's licences than Labour and we can only assume that the same would likely hold true to the Green Party and Lib Dems given their views on the environment.

Aside from speculation about the Greens and Lib Dems, there's no assumptions here. The Photo ID law will more likely have an effect on people who don't vote Tory then people who do.

Well the easiest way to solve this problem would be to provide those who can prove they can't afford a photo id (being on benefits perhaps) a free one. I don't see many objections. Then there can be no doubt.

I've already mentioned the issues with this in a previous post, so I'm just gonna quote that here to save time.

Let's say this free voter ID card is a thing for people who don't have other forms of photo ID, how many hoops will a person have to jump through to get one? Because they won't send you one automatically because it's a photo ID, so a person with a Driver's Licence or a paid form of ID instantly has an advantage over someone who doesn't.

It's no different to the voter suppression taking place in Georgia where for future votes, they are banning giving people food or drink while they wait in line.... in Georgia weather... for potentially hours... That's designed to make it harder for people to vote, thus suppressing certain people from voting.

If you add restrictions or make voting harder for people to do in any way, that has the effect of voting suppression.

The problem is that people won't realistically get an automatic voter ID like they currently get a voting slip ahead of a vote. They'll have to likely pursue getting one when the current process is wholly automatic. You get a slip, you can take it with you, easy.

When you add extra restrictions to the right to vote, it won't increase votes, it'll just decrease votes from certain demographics and that is the intended affect here.
You can guarantee the process to get one of these free IDs won't be simple or quick, because the only reason to add extra barriers to voting like this one is to make it difficult for certain people to vote. No matter how you cut it, it's voter suppression and if we weren't such a spineless country, we would be up in arms about it but we just accept it, 'cus it's the tories. It's pathetic.
