This is actually one of the reasons I don't think that the current administration will be able to turn the UK into 1984:

They'll be too busy trying to cover up the fact they have a foreign, militant entity they simply let in who has now seized territory and who the authorities have no power to control.

We are about to witness Labour copy the same leadership style as Æthelred the Unready in the 21st century.

I thought people in the UK were fed up with being overrun like this. How did Labour win?

Their first past the post voting systems HEAVILY favours the establishment parties.

It's a similar issue that happened in France, they don't need to 'cheat' like in the US, the system is designed in such a way to shut out emerging populist parties.

Dang. So there is little hope? I mean not like America isn’t free of election issues. I’m glad I live in Texas at least although that could turn blue

There is but it'd take a FULL revolt to happen.

Put it this way, in America you can still turn it around through an election with pressure and vigilance.

In a lot of Europe, normie programming has to break to where bodies pile up on a daily rate and authorities are targeted before enough pressure is there to change.

The European system ensures a new third reich happens because unlike the US and other countries, there's no pressure release valves to discontent.

I watched Seattle burn during the Covid riots, and politicians lead rioters to each other's houses. All of those politicians are still in power.

Heck, right now all of my lefty friends think we'll have a fourth Reich with Trump. The weird part is it's all middle class white people from around the world who think this. They can't see their own evil, even if you show riots, deaths, and incompetence.

The difference is that is happening in BLUE cities and States as aren't the rural areas in America still fine by comparison?

Given how people talk about California, New York, Chicago etc they're more than willing to let THEM go to hell in an Arkham City kind of way while they don't have to deal with it.

While in Europe due to lack of personal protection tools and laws, it isn't contained to idiot hubs.

Sadly, rural areas have their own problems to meth with.

Seattle is one of the most corrupt cities in the country. No election there or state level election in WA is legitimate, much like CA.

The normies in the UK, France and Germany definitely fit that category.

In Ireland? It looks like they're getting a new branch of the IRA activated with the amount of shit they're burning down. Eastern Europe is more a toss up as they still remember the boot of the Soviet Union to see the signs.

Regardless of how it ends though, I can guarantee EVERY one of the virtue signallers will be dragged into the street and thrown into a ditch by the 'winning' side at least in Europe since you've incentivised only the most extreme to win against the establishment.

Labour didn't win, the Tories lost. With luck, proper conservatives will complete the pivot to Remain by next election and leave the husk of the Tory party to rot.

The UK would have to import some "proper" conservatives for that to work, since they currently don't have any.

Labour didn't win, the Torys simply lost their voters.

Looks at the numbers for labour from this election and the one 5 years ago. Iirc the turnout wasn't even 5% better.

2019 was Labour's worst defeat in 100 years and in 2024 their total votes actually went down. In the time when Tories went from 14 million votes (2019) to under 7m (2024), Labour went from 10.3m to 9.7m. Keir Starmer's own constituency returned him with 37k votes in 2019 but under 19k in 2024. Any suggestion of Labour having popular support is a lie.

People got sick of the conservatives and went with the new party (reform?) while normies stuck with the tories so the vote kinda got split in a way.

Plus labor won the cities

Isn't it normal for a conquered nation to learn the language of those that conquered them?

The English decide it time for "The Beginnings" or they die. There is no third option, and this is a situation many nations are going to face in the next century.

The UK citizens seem unaware of what is happening or their future :

https://x.com/amymek/status/1814014740093624809

The UK invented military propaganda to genocide their population.

Even when they discover their future they will never be allowed to even organize themselves against it.
