We are at an airport restaurant. A robot just drove up to us with our food, said, "Hi! Here I am!" and then drove away with our food.

Labour needs to grow some backbone to establish itself as a left-wing government rather than a pale imitation of a right-wing one. Moving rightwards only highlights that they're abandoning the left while still not being extreme enough for Reform voters. Embrace the left with actual policy pls.
