It's not quite that bad - the news obviously makes it seem like it's worse than it is. Also we finally got rid of the Tories, so at least things are heading in the right direction. I made a list of some positive changes Labour have made already:

* Allow onshore wind

* Means tested winter fuel allowance

* Inheritance tax for farms

* Assisted dying bill (controversial but I think generally people are in favour of this)

* Scrapping the public footpath registration deadline

The only stupid thing I think they've done is the porn site age testing thing, but that was also a Tory policy.

IMO the big problem is the right-wing media. Take something like the winter fuel allowance. Very obviously the right thing to do, and even pensioners were generally in favour (check this article: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gegy4r9ndo ), yet it still somehow a huge controversy with disingenuous articles even on the BBC like this one fuelling the faux outrage: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c80l9lde5yjo

How can we make any improvements if such obviously good changes meet such an irrational reaction?
