american equivalent to labour party is more DSA than Democrat. America's mainstream left is a fucking joke. Obama's 2012 campaign manager was an adviser for the Tories

This is kind of true. Clinton-esque Neoliberalism crept into the Labour party the same way it did with the Democrats, even calling it "New Labour". Tony Blair was the biggest proponent.

Curious to see how democrats take this. I expect full "You can't expect that to work here" / "They're just reacting to Trump".

Anyway, not sure how Corbyn gets to be PM. The SNP isn't holding up, and they're losing seats to the Tories.

Also about Lord Buckethead,

In 1987 he secured 131 votes against Margaret Thatcher in Finchley and lost to John Major in 1992.

And the Americans think a multi-partied political system is stupid.

And the Americans think a multi-partied political system is stupid.

I don't know if a lot of people think it's stupid, but the dynamic of the UK (four countries, parliamentary system) is different from the US (one country, presidential system, electoral college, and a myriad of other problems) and thus harder to execute.

UK politics is stupid so yes it is.

Is this where Gred says this isn't achievable in the United States and democrats must continue to pander to "centrists"

This just proves that Bernie would have lost narrowly?
