The End

[AtW]

“ Labour's "devastating" general election defeat could spell the end of the party, shadow health secretary Jonathan Ashworth has warned.

The Labour MP told a BBC Radio 4 documentary the party had to change or face up to 15 years out of power.
"Unless we do something quick this could be the end of the Labour Party in this country", he said.”

I'd argue it is the end of trust in government. On both sides of the Atlantic opposition parties share a common quagmire when it comes to following the democracy rule book. Consider how both Trump & Boris have normalised lies, breaking the law, how do opposition parties compete with that? We're entering unprecedented times.

To use an old adage:

"You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time"
