Re: Sounds about right to me Archived Message Posted by dereklane on December 13, 2019, 9:07 pm, in reply to "Sounds about right to me" I'd say more of a loss of faith by the people that the Labour Party were going to stand by anything they said. With me people get one chance. If I find they've lied to me I stop trusting them. I suspect I'm not alone in that. It's very similar to the democrat loss after all the years of obamas promises. It's not that they thought trump would be better but that they were sick of lies and excuses, and people here I think could see the difference between one soft leader and all the Tory underlings in his party. Scrabb's analysis seems on the mark to me. And many may not remember, but things were going rapidly downhill for the poor under blairs regime too, and with a lot of those same members still calling the shots in the Labour Party people were just fed up.
