If Reform win that’s the fault of Labour for trying to appease the far right to court Reform voters.
If you vote Labour you WILL get Farage, Labour is such a nasty and toxic brand now they won’t be winning anything

Labour are not left. Labour are more Tory than anything remotely left wing. They deserve to lose their voters

It must be infuriating for these MPs. Because it’s not directly Stella’s fault any of this, she seems fairly sane other than the Labour loyalism. PLP have to do something though, because their party is not winning anything with the current power structure

Time to admit the Starmerism experiment has failed.

It's increasingly obvious that Labour's strategy - call it Starmerism, Blue Labour, whatever - has got it badly wrong. It has alienated the party's core vote while failing to win over those leaning to Reform. There was no shortage of people warning them they were getting it wrong either.

When people tell you “vote Labour or you’ll enable Reform” they clearly aren’t keeping up to date with the public temperature.

The public really dislike Labour and for good reason. Labour is just a nasty label, it’s like being a Tory for the last few years of their power.

Labour have no chance

Do socialists plan to use force against welfare claimants? You are a part of a sick and nasty party and you are no socialist. Why don’t you read this and see what your nasty government is doing www.disabilitynewsservice.com/peers-derail...

BlueRayCrisp @permanentlytired9f.bsky.social · 1d

A socialist doesn’t vote to cut welfare benefits. It’s just an insane lie for her to say she is “progressive” when she voted to plunge people into poverty. You can literally prove her wrong with one sentence.
Labour deserve to be a one term government for how they have treated minorities

BlueRayCrisp @permanentlytired9f.bsky.social · 1d

Keir Starmer had disabled family and he slashed welfare benefits. That one sentence should be enough to make sure Labour are a one term government. You say that to anyone and they will consider never voting Labour again

Someone in my family is incredibly unwell and they’ve scared the daylights out of him. It’s been atrocious how they’ve talked about and treated welfare claimants. Stella calling herself a “progressive” after her party has bullied the sick is genuinely astonishing. Embarrassing

BlueRayCrisp @permanentlytired9f.bsky.social · 1d

Labour’s bullying and nasty rhetoric around welfare benefits has been disgusting. It feels like they see the sick, the vulnerable and the mentally ill as useless eaters. It’s just sick. It’s like if you can’t work Labour look down on you. Don’t trust these people

Vote #Green, then.

Labour's policies towards immigration are racist. Their foreign policy supports genocide. If you want to know what might be enabling unabashed racism in public discourse, look no further than your own party & "island of strangers" boss.

Stella Creasy MP @stellacreasy.bsky.social · 2d

Don’t give these people benefit of the doubt. This racist rant isn’t an accident. Or ‘speaking out of turn’.

It’s designed to fill our airwaves with people debating ‘if’ non white skin is a problem. Not Reform.

Diversity isn’t the issue, hatred is. Don’t indulge it, vote for it or tolerate it.

The Keir Starmer dream is to have UK politics to be just like the USA - essentially a choice between him and Farage.

Luckily now we have Zack Polanski giving a genuine Left-Wing alternative to stop the UK becoming fully Americanised.

Not to mention their atrocious rhetoric around sick and disabled people and their slashing of welfare. Just Tories
