Is the idea here:

that the "alternative to #austerity, privatisation of the #NHS or a way to reduce poverty,  fallng real wages, and an end to privatised rip-off utilities" that Corbyn's manifesto offered, was the cause of Labour losing the last election? 

That the UK electorate rejected those alternatives and wanted more of the same?

That #Starmer would lose if he offered that kind of manifesto?

As the far left were repeatedly told, it wasn't the #Labour message, it was the messenger. But would you listen? 🤔

Now show me where #Starmer has advocated against any of the above, his reasons why & the timescales involved? 🤷🏾‍♂️
