Well, he was pretty fucking terrible

Looking to the world stage, he was less terrible than many of his peers.

Not from i saw, while I hate Carney, id argue he is better than Keir. Keir was maybe better than a handful of others, but its a race to the bottom

Who was the last PM that people liked?

T00l_shed@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 66d (3 replies)

Liked is irrelevant, a pm who works for the people is all that is needed

how was he bad?

T00l_shed@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 67d (8 replies)

He was a neolib with pro capitalism politics. He didn't care for the working class, he didn't combat right wing extremism. Plus things like his anti privacy measures

a neolib with pro capitalism policies… are you kidding me? in england? of all places?

You asked how he was bad, and I told you. Why the pointless sarcasm?

Eyekaytee@aussie.zone · -2 pts · 67d (5 replies)

because it’s a silly thing to point out

i want to know really what he’s done that’s so bad and so far I’ve not heard anything

on reddit seems like people are saying this is a football manager situation, fix everything in 5 minutes or your gone

Its not silly? Its the reason he is awful, just because you choose not to think neolib policies aren't "bad" doesn't mean they aren't.

"on reddit"

There's your problem

Eyekaytee@aussie.zone · 0 pts · 67d

what neolib policies in particular were bad?

There’s your problem

there are a total 10 comments on this thread and the one in the other world news combined vs over 4000 on reddit, sorry i need more perspectives outside of the average progressive left wing american?
