If you voted for Labour at #GE2024 it should be crystal clear to you by now that you chose slightly pink tinged Tory over royal blue Tory because you chose to ignore the glaring facts infront of you.
It should also be clear to you by now that your infantile “anything but the Tory” vote will kill people.
Hope you can sleep well. Don’t dare whine about ANYTHING you’ve caused.
This isn’t social housing, this is slightly reduced rent private housing.
Labour should have reversed Right To Buy decades ago and restored Council housing to proper levels to cope with the housing crisis, instead they’ve gone along with Tory privatisation of the entire housing market and we’re left with a chronic shortage of homes normal people can afford.
To the 31% of voters who just wouldn’t listen at #GE2024: you angry at voting for 5 more years of Tory bollocks?

It should be abundantly clear to even the dimmest among us that Labour hasn’t been the Party of working people for decades.
Starmer lied his way into the Leadership and immediately reneged on all the promises he’d made.
His Party has done the same to the electorate since #GE2024. Promising ‘change’ but instead only delivering more profits for big business.
If you’re feeling betrayed right now maybe pay attention next time and #VoteGreen for real, lasting change.
WHAT ABOUT THE WORKERS!?!?!?!?!?!
“The right to switch off policy closely mirrors laws introduced in France in 2017, which were designed to end the “always on” culture by making it illegal for employers to expect their workers to be contactable outside designated work hours.
On Tuesday, ministers will confirm that the policy has been dropped …. amid concern that the provision would have placed too much of a burden on businesses.”
Please don’t pretend you’re surprised ToryBoy
Starmer is reversing all the progressive promises he made to ‘win’ #GE2024 on 31% of the vote
He lied through his teeth to get Leadership of the New Conservatives (t/a Labour).
If you’re feeling cheated and let down right now you’ve only got your own stupidity to blame.
The rest of us warned you — you chose not to listen.
Scotland — we need to cut ourselves free sooner rather than later.
@DaObjector @Koochulainn Some Irish political hashtags are #irpol, and recently #GE2024 #GE24, #IrelandVotes. Search for posts with those and follow people who use them should help your timeline feel a little less lonely.
A caution for anyone in Ireland with a Seanad vote who has moved house - I updated my address on the normal election register and my polling card for the General Election went there but the Seanad address list must be separate as my ballot paper arrived at the parental home. Thankfully am there to pick up, deadline is 29th Jan.
Mate, I'm having party level discussions about the same thing. I can't say much, but there are high level discussions which have commenced looking in detail at #GE2024 voting patterns, where #Labour stands now, & what must be achieved to retain power in 2029.
Labour's coms are comically shit! This makes matters worse when we don't have a gob on a stick, populist leader who can chat shit & people take it all in.
The fightback is gonna have to come from us mate. I've got your back 
Oh bless! I see our fashy far right brethren are all fighting like rats in a sack since they were unceremoniously given the heave ho by the Irish electorate. 
(With apologies to Bernard Mulvaney if he is on here. I couldn’t find an a/c).
Next steps! Please consider getting involved in tenants/workers unions and in community groups, especially if you're also a young person.
Change is about more than voting once every 5 years; it is something we must all collectively fight for day-to-day!

I'm so grateful to all who gave me a vote and who supported me in any way over the past few weeks and months!
The momentum continues to grow from the locals, with double the votes in half the time canvassing, and I'm proud of how the campaign went!
Leigheas póit ól arís. Sin a dheirtear pé scéal é, ach tá amhras orm an oibreoidh sé i gcás na ngéarchéim tithíochta agus costais mharachtála. Beidh deis eile againn i gceann 5 bhliain nó mar sin stopadh den ól. Go mbeirimid beo. #Rogha2024 #Vóta2024 #GE24 #GE2024
