  1. Labour aren’t even to blame for it either. People are idiots

  2. Red Tories doing Unionist things as we all expected.

    Edit; do the resident Gammons think is it OK to call the Unionists, Unionists?

  3. Tbh I don’t know what Labour stand for anymore other than being “not the Tories”.

    If you were handed a list of their policies without being told who they belonged to, you’d assume they were a conservative/right of centre political party.

  4. I think Sarwar still expects Labour to steamroll the election in 2026, but he’s in dreamland. You’ve seen what Starmer will do, So you can guess what Sarwar will do

  5. Well, as I’ve said before Anas is pretty forgettable, plus acting as a branch off for Westminster isn’t a good look. Just kinda makes them look pointless. Might as well rebrand as Imperial Labour.

  6. Vacuous no-mark refuses to blame senior vacuous no-mark for public’s sudden understanding that they’ve just voted for a slightly more discreet and moderate version of economic fuckery than they had before.

    Scottish politics has been rocked to its core that Anus has bucked the trend of those radical firebrand Slabber leaders such as Kezia ‘The Red Terror’ Dugdale and Jack ‘Here’s Your Billion Back’ McCormack.

    A tragedy for our age.

  7. Slightly less tory than the tories Sarwar will always toe the line.

  8. I mean he’s not exactly going to call out the PM whilst an election hasn’t even happened yet is he?

  9. He is going to sacrifice his political career for a guy who doesn’t even like him

  10. He’s right. It’s Sarwars fault. So many times he could have stood up to the leadership to show that Scottish Labour were more than just an outpost but that’s exactly what they are so he didn’t.

  11. I’m not sure Sarwar’s long and storied history of never holding an opinion on anything other than enforcing the bedroom tax, being weak on winter fuel payments, and generally doing everything he can to stop the few interesting voices in Labour having any say at all is that big of an advantage either.

    Give Sarwar a meet and greet with some pensioners and he’ll excel. Ask him to say anything coherent or principled on the economy that isn’t a soundbite and he’ll drown.
