It’s encouraging to see Jeremy Corbyn’s new party gaining strong support in the UK. According to reports today, membership is already approaching 600,000—just a week after its launch. If accurate, that figure surpasses even the 564,000 members Labour achieved at its peak during the Corbyn years.
By comparison, Labour under Starmer now has a more modest 309,000 members (and that probably still includes a chunk of defectors), while Reform stands at 229,000 and the Conservatives at 131,000.
One has to imagine that leading Labour figures are deeply regretting their decision to expel Corbyn over what many see as baseless and politically motivated antisemitism allegations. Much of the party’s left wing seems to have now defected to join Corbyn’s new movement.
Leaving us with the rather obvious question: Who exactly does Kier Starmer represent?

Corbyns reputation was destroyed to let Starmer and the security services take control of the labour party.
Don`t need to look too far to see where it`s happened before.

Is it apples and pears, comparing number of people who have registered for updates on their website vs number of people who have actually paid to become a party member?
Their website certainly feels like the former from what I can see.

Corbyn is just splitting the left. Reform will be guaranteed the election

Honestly, at this point, let them win it. Watch the country crash and burn as folk are paying £50 just to get a doctor’s appointment and the boats keep on coming (unless Farage deploys the navy to sink them).
We might then get a chance at Indy……

Starmer split the left with his purges.
The enemy travels by private jet, not by dinghy.
