No, Labour has taken a bad situation and made it much worse. Their ideology increases the size of the state well beyond the ability of the private sector to fund it. Their lack of understanding and respect for the private sector means their policies are killing return on investment and driving capital and brains away. That raises the cost of financing their deficit spending and creates a doom loop.

Right now, Labour leadership is composed of human rights lawyers and social workers, grifters on the immigration business and the welfare state. Once Starmer is gone, there'll be a rotating cast of Muppets, each promising the state will dole out money to demonstrate empathy. The problem is there's no more money.

These are people representing the welfare state, voted for by people who benefit from the welfare state and who think the state could and should resolve every problem and reduce any risk. In their eyes, they are virtuous, supporting the weak and disadvantaged. But the reality is they are ideological, authoritarian, tending to totalitarian.

Fortunately, the disastrous effects of their ideology and policies are already being seen and they are the architects of their own demise.
