To the surprise of no-one at all, followers of a religion which regards homosexuality as harem are not overly keen on trans people. I predicted this would be an issue when YourParty was first announced - I can't find the post so I'm denied a smug 'told you so' moment (maybe I posted it elsewhere?), the fact that the leadership failed to predict it tells us something.
I believe all those who won the Palestinian issue voted against The Renters rights bill. The problem is that’s one of the best more liberally socialist bills in the last few decades. If they can’t back that then how are they going form a party of the left? Just a point Corbyn did vote for it.

They also opposed VAT on school fees because there’s a small (but doubtless vocal) group committed to Muslim private schools, and Orthodox Jewish private schools. Jez was in favour.

Why did Jez think he’d get a coherent party out of this? Loose group of independents with some foreign policy issues in common, that was how to do it.

Because from the day he became Labour leader he's been surrounded by disciples telling him that he's destined to become Prime Minister if only he can get rid of the Zionists, globalists and traitors. Do that and the people will flock to him.

There was an internet phrase I used to like back in the day, "Graphic design is my passion", used when someone knocked out a terrible image. We've come on a lot since then, because we now have AI to do that.

As the OP says, this is quite simply one of the worst things I've ever seen. 4 variations on pickaxes, all wrong. Something that looks like a flying saucer hovering over the not obviously Durham-like landscape. And, I think my favourite are the two things, which are presumably supposed to be a tower and winding wheel, but look more like a pylon with a Texas longhorn sat on top.

And she shouldn't be using AI at all.
