Starmer's left wing is centre right.
It's really not, it's just actually electable
Well he's pro privatisation of the NHS, pro Israel,
anti-trans, dropped his electoral reform promises and to abolish the house of lords
dropped his green energy promises,
decided to keep private schools as charity status,
Is keeping the Tories cuts to welfare,
is pro university tuition fees,
is against taxing the rich more,
dropped his commitment to nationalise public services like water gas and energy,
dropped his promise to defend freedom of movement and refuses to start the process of rejoining EU or EEA,
dropped his promise to stop new oil and gas licences in the north sea,
dropped his promise to scrap the universal credit system
So please tell me, what is he offering to do thats actually left wing, that the Tories arent?
