The only reason why I address British politics — something I honestly don’t know that much about — is it definitely has an interesting dynamic in the context of Trumplandia. It appears as though, from what I can discern from a little light reading on the subject that it is within at least the realm of possibility that Labour might win.
I don’t know enough about this subject right this second to give you an intelligent explanation of what it would mean for Great Britain should Labour win, but I guess the point of this post is to tell you I’m monitoring the situation.
As I understand it, to put things in perspective, if Labour won at this point, it would be kind of like Mondale winning in 1984. It would really shake things up in British politics and it would be a return to the more traditional democratic socialist views of Labour’s past.
Apparently, one outcome is a hung parliament. It just seems as though in this age of Trumplandia that the most outlandish things are happening on a regular basis. I don’t know what to say. I am going to try to bone up on this subject had have a better understanding of what’s going on by the time the actual election happens.
Stay tuned.
