I note that this synopsis conveniently forgets the punitive treatment of disabled people by cutting disability benefits and support, the erosion of trans rights, imprisonment of grandmothers for peacefully protesting an active genocide and selling arms to a country engaged in genocide. So left wing. Radical. Wow.

"Recognizes" Palestine, but if you agree with him the "wrong" way, then you're literally a terrorist and will go to jail.

So left leaning.

Or you can say is that really left? that people have been so conditioned by a right leaning Labour that this seems left?

And also go all in on prosecuting pro-Palestine protesters and also enact the most draconian Internet-censorship 'child-protection' laws outside of China.

Nothing says left wing like loosening fiscal investment rules.

No, that was the Attlee government. Or Harold Wilson's.

While Starmer's is economically much better than the Tory shit, it's still rather centrist and he's got other issues that undoubtedly everyone more right-wing than him also has.

Don't forget that Jeremy Corbyn was ousted as top Labour candidate for being "anti-semite", which merely meant disagreeing to which degree the Labour party which he was leading had a specific problem with antisemitism. Where "antisemitisn" was sometimes defined as "criticizing the Israelian Government".

Not new that leftwing politicians are measured by far higher standards than conservative-rightwing ones.

Mmmm. When you put it like that... 🙃
