Still bad though I guess the Labour Party. Though they’re both different. Dems haven’t been as progressive since Labour was under their previous leadership since the FDR era, but they’ve gone more toward the center.

Hasnt the Labour Party been a disaster for the uk too though? I feels like the UK itself needs to overhaul all of its political parties it’s just been bad each every changing leader the last couple of years.

Labour has essentially been a minority party going on 15 years. The Tories have massively ran the UK into the ground since then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
