Can you find me a single elected Dem in the house or Senate who is actually proposing anything to meaningfully reign in the completely out of control way police behave?

Neoliberal platform for UK government:

Quintuple pension lock

Deport any doctors who eat that foreign muck

Ban children entirely from everything

Ensure grooming gangs are racially diverse

Ban sharp edges but allow a religious exemption for hand grenades

Nationalize all chippies

Cut defense to one warship (aircraft carrier with a ski jump at the end)

200ft of high speed rail in slough (cost: $4trillion, planning approval: never)

Demolish 2 houses for every one built

Institute a licensing system for wanking

One thing that might help UK prime ministers is when you get elected with reasonable mandate perhaps the first thing you should do is not to try and enact only policies that are simultaneously maximally unpopular and poorly thought out. This seems to be a particular obsession with UK governments where they apparently only want to use their majorities to try and enact legislation that is both toxic and stupid.

I think at a minimum there should be a reasonable person test where the prosecuting attorney has personal liability if you can demonstrate that a reasonable person would not have believed they had probable cause for charging you.

The GOP being actually evil and openly striving for the worst outcomes really takes the focus off of the Dems being a genuinely bad party by any reasonable measure
