Labour isn't the left. Keir Starmer lied about everything to become the leader of the Labour Party as the face of Morgan McSweeney, Steve Reed and Peter Mandelson's "Labour Together" right wing project because they knew the membership, which is generally centre left, would never vote for them if they were honest about their intentions. They hid 75% of their donations until after the contest was over, violating electoral law.

Lo and behold, they're doing disability cuts, trans moral panic, privacy violations, outsourcing to American tech barons and clamping down on protest rights. Starmer suspended several MPs early on for voting against the government's policy of keeping the two child cap on benefits.

However, you are partially right that the right wing press still doesn't approve of them and are manufacturing dissent, despite Labour's cruel anti-migrant and pro-capital policies.

The third No Kings protests are expected to draw millions. Do they need clearer goals?

“It’s a declaration of intent that we are going to return power back to the people.”

I mean, that sounds good but, when did the people have power? Are you just trying to get back to the system that gave us Trump? Why did that system give us Trump and what effects was it having on Americans and people around the world?

You can tell that I'm British so I'm clearly not showing up to these protests. But we all have skin in this game as we're all affected by the American Empire, especially today. We need you to get this right and not go back to a world that gave us Nixon, Bush, Bush, Trump and a president that promised hope and change and delivered a healthcare plan from the Heritage Foundation. We really need Americans to understand that the status quo has wrecked our planet and we need to try for something very different.
