In the UK, our healthsystem was the best on most metrics before the Tories came in and now it's behind on most.

Next will be Kier Starmer for Labour who main promises seem to be to keep the policies of the incumbents.

(Health used as an illustrative area but this applies across the board).

Neoliberal ideology is deeply entrenched in the Angloshere. UK even more so.

Kier Starmer thinks Corbyn lost because he was a Socialist. It was about Brexit. "Get Brexit Done" was a master class in political expediency. Even Boris was wise enough to sprinkle a little "socialism" with his levelling up policies.

Kier Starmer looks like he's going to score an own goal in the last minute of extra time.
