Currently the regime is in a bad place, but things are especially bad in Britain. A few weeks ago, I started pushing the idea on twitter that the Tories should attain Zero Seats in the election, which quickly spawned memes and this particularly-excellent fan-made spoof campaign video
I agree with this, I recently wrote that there's something to be said for the sheer irrationality of a politics of spite and hatred regardless of consequences.
That said, we need to be assessing where the Tories can likely retain power and regard ''reaching out'' to the people there as a matter of importance.
I feel like this about our Republican Party. The Democrats are forever kvetching that they are being held hostage by the republicans and zero seats would remove the excuses. Plus the republicans are useless.
The Conservative Party has a consistent record, not just of failure, but of outright treachery. Infiltration of the Conservative Party has been tried, and has failed every time. Attempts to reach out to conservatives have been made time and again to no avail. It is a totally rotten and unsalvageable party that no longer has any legitimacy. In the next general election, the Conservative Party deserves to be wiped out so that the farce of British electoral politics can be exposed, and so the function of the party as a pressure valve for rightist discontent can be neutralised. Naturally, we can’t expect zero seats, but the closer we can get to it, the better.
This happened in America before the Civil War. In 1856, the Whigs collapsed (not quite zero, but still), leaving the Democrats in sole command of the Old Republic. The stress of having no one to blame, no bogeyman to hold them together, shattered the Democrats.
The more cosmopolitan remnants of the Whigs and the disaffected Dems joined together to form the Republican Party, which went on to precipitate the Civil War as soon as they came to power in 1860, and, more importantly, restore the kabuki theatre.
May your realignment go more smoothly than ours did.
It is time to accept that Britain is a lost cause and gather the remaining based people to establish a based breeding colony somewhere promising. The population will keep sliding left because of mutational load, immigrations are gonna keep pouring in, the window of demographics majority is closing rapidly and there is no change in sight. Flee or wither
"Zero Seats" is a good slogan, but "No Vote" would be more specific. Don't hold your nose and voot Labour, and don't support any of the petty outfits angling to be Con Party 2.0. Just turn the act of mass abstention into a vote of no confidence in the democratist fraud.
I think the election won't be until the very last knockings, the last Thursday before 28/1/25, which means the next US president will have been inaugurated. I also think the tories are so reviled they will not be able to campaign freely in many of the constituencies they hope to hold onto. The abuse and physical threats will be too much to contend with. The labour victory will be bigger than the 418 seats Blair won in 1997, but with less than 10 million votes.
There are local elections on 2nd May, this will be the starter before the main course.

Didn't need to read it to understand why zero seats is a desirable outcome, but read it anyway, because it's a good read.
What do you think, how can an immigrant help British dissident right to achieve it? I fucking hate fake conservatives in every Western country.

ZERO SEATS
Please get Dom Cummings on a podcast soon, I'd be very interested to hear you two debate

The two party system, is no system at all.
I remember everyone pointing out the tories had an 80 seat majority every time they complained about something. Now imagine 600-0.

Labour would immediately factionalize, the Starmers vs the Corbyns, recreating a new phony opposition and the game would go on.
It happened in one-party Communist nations: Russia in the 1920s, China in the 1960s.
It’s bloody DIALECTICAL.

Spoil your vote, 'none of the above'
"It seems that our man has fallen into a trap. This makes his behavior
no less admirable. Although his nay may issue from a lost cause, it
will nevertheless have a persisting influence. Naturally, in places
where the old world still basks in the warmth of the evening sun, on
pleasant hillsides, on islands, or, in short, in milder climates, this
voter will remain unnoticed. There it is the other ninety-eight of the
hundred votes that make the impression. Since the cult of the
majority has been long and ever more mindlessly celebrated, the two
percent will be overlooked. Their role, by contrast, is to make the
majority explicit and overpowering—because a hundred out of a
hundred can no longer be called a majority." -Ernst Jünger, The Forest Passage

Zero Seats, but be weary of what you wish for...
