There are many, many, things you can criticise Labour under Starmer for, but “neo-Thatcherite” is laughable, and is about the level of political insight I’d expect from the canary.

Last I checked, Maggie didn’t nationalise rail companies, or increase workers rights, or a mass house building programme, or make targeted investment in the north, or have an industrial policy, or put billions in to renewables. In fact, come to think of it, she did the exact opposite of every one of these things.

Am I happy with Labour right now? No. But not everything short of fully seizing the means of production is Thatcherite, and to pretend it is gives the dead bitch far too much credit, and minimises the level of damage she and her ilk did to the country.

Edit - typos etc.

Labour is dead

They’ve been around for 125 years and are currently running the country. I think I’d give them a bit more credit for resillience.
