Comment on Created a lemmy community for Your Party

It’s good to hear they’ve put a soft deadline on it, but I can’t help but think it’s wasted time when they could be building recognition with the average person. I hope I’m worrying over nothing.

Given it’s 4 years till the next election. And nothing can really happen until then.
Added to the way the PLP and leadership took over the labour party ignoring the members wishes. On many issues.
The founders think ensuring the democratic roots and management of this new party is more important then rushing it’s formation.

Thank you for taking the time to share your insight, it’s definitely worth doing things right rather than rushed. I guess I’m a bit panicked by how fast things went downhill across the pond, but that’s probably just social media’s American bias shoving it in my face so much.
If this is done properly it could very well be what we need. I’ll hold on to hope.

Sorry did not expect anyone else to be up. I tend to edit my posts a lot. I am now finished. Sorry if I dramatically changed anything.
