it's entirely possible that 2017 was somewhat sabotaged by reluctant corbz-hostile lab operatives and 2019 was badly run by keen lab operatives loyal to corbz

Yup there is a story here to be told of Corbyn loyal ppl who left post-2017 too.

There was a lot of nonsense talk about how strong Labour's ground game before the '19 disaster. In my neck of the woods Tory campaigners were like ants and there were signs on every lamppost even signs half to Leeds outside this constituency - there was definitely some kind of ground game failure that was possibly nothing to do with internal wrecking. My mp, as decent as she was, she was melt adjacent and to the point she deleted a group photo with Corbyn in London that was taken by a local Councillor who told she said something like : oh christ no, I don't want that fucker in my pic! But it was a marginal and one that you might think was the result of gerrymandering - it might have been. I haven't looked into the history of the boundary changes.

My constituency encompasses areas like Saviletown where the population is 90%+ South Asian and lots of extreme socially deprived poor areas like Chickenley, Dewsbury Moor, Ravensthorpe etc and then posh af zones like Upper/Lower Hopton etc which belong more to Hudds than here which looks like some gerrymandering went on some point. But anyway, if Labour concentrated their ground game in the Tory zones then they fucked up and effectively did in a good mp who only lost by a couple of thousand there. get brexit done needed challenging and there was fuck all prescence.

UK politics threads are like so many demos I've been to in the past 10 years; there's this ritual.
You've got the various factions of protesters, the nice quaker/Green types with their organised signs saying 'down with this sort of thing', the Sisters Uncut who are really well prepared, and have a loudspeaker and are reading out name of the murdered or a list of the demands, and of course a few tankies in black bandanas and hoodies with anarchy symbols on them, who are milling about menacingly and occasionally shouting "ACAB!" or "Riot!!!" or whatever.
And some copper will come over, and start trying to tell people to take it easy, look, all the coppers are on overtime now and want to go home, could the demo maybe wind it up (and he will 100% say in the inquest afterwards or whatever, that he was genuinely trying to calm things down) - but one of the Sisters will kiss her teeth at him, and the hoodies will make pig noises and start oinking or whatever, and the cop will go beserk and just start telling us we're all scum. So the hoodies start throwing plastic bottles at the cops and taunting them - and BOOM! 500 cops appear out of nowhere, start pushing the crowd back, the tankies smash in the window of Foxton's, there's a million photographers snapping photos of it, and suddenly you're in a kettle and it's got *nasty*.
People will look at descriptions of that situation, and say, "no one wants to go to demos any more, the fucken tankies make it unsafe!!!" When, really, the reason people stop going to demos is because of the *cops*.
