... an exact clone of the Labour Party: devoted to the extreme centre, elite-controlled, full of untouchable power bases, and utterly dismissive of the membership -- who will be expected to hand over the money that pays for it all and then piss off until next year's subs are due.

I don't see any way of avoiding this. Just as Reform will now suck in 'experienced' Tories so that it becomes just a renamed version of all that's shittest in the Conservative Party, so will Your Party just be Nu Nu Labour with a new crowd of entitled chancers, new stationery, and a different coloured tie. Corbyn will get it started, and then he'll be emasculated, and then he'll be out.

What's that horror movie where evil spirits or aliens or something jump from person to person, possessing them and making them kill? British politics only has room for a Tory Party and a non-Labour Labour Party, and these will simply re-emerge, in new guises, over and over until the country collapses.
