    UK Labour should take this as a grave warning and change course immediately.

      I completely concur. Talk about a harbinger eating your own face.

      But of course, they won’t. They’re leaning right in both economic and social policy. It’s awful.

    Should have called it Thatcheresque for the local flair.

      That would require the Republicans to have knowledge of history outside their own country.

        The republicans have knowledge of history inside the US?

        I have the feeling they mostly believe in a fairy tale version of US history from what they peddle.

    If a US Republican is praising your policy, it’s a bad policy. If they call it (🤢🤮) Reganesque, then it’s a disastrous one.

      Especially for fucking Labour.

      And he didn’t even have the situational awareness to call it Thatcheresque instead.
