Comment on UK Labour suffers historic local election wipeout as Reform surges
Gorgritch_umie_killa@aussie.zone 2 weeks agoI feel like things rhyme, they don’t repeat is appropriate here.
For example,
“Stop the Boats” was a slogan here long before it hit Britain. But its really not a thing anymore, and a large policy shift would be required from Labor or the Greens to see a path for that to have a resurgence.
Thats one example, but a lot of the drivers right wing populists have in other countries to play on are less common, or have been dealt with to varying degrees here.
So i really don’t support this idea that we’re politically behind the US or Europe. It doesn’t make sense to me as a framework to think about One Nation’s risen popularity.
