Ralph Ferrett @ralphferrett.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Many of my pals ask me why I'm a lifelong Labour supporter after I disliked leaders for being "too right wing" my whole life.

Ralph Ferrett @ralphferrett.bsky.social · 27/09/2026For example, just in story terms do you think that there is anything in post 1997 mainline films that tells as good and interesting story as Knights of the old Republic did? I don't. It was the use of that blank canvas that gave them the freedom to craft a great story that felt like Star Wars. 000
Ralph Ferrett @ralphferrett.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Yeah, far too much attempting to shoe horn Nostalgia into the reboot trilogy. For me the best bit was in Last Jedi where they were hinting that anyone could be a Jedi. It's a blank canvass, doesn't have to be Skywalkers, and Palpatines. Use that amazing canvas for something new 000

It's that we no longer support the things which facilitate growth: Europe, immigration, higher education, tax simplification, policy stability. These are all choices and could stop making them anytime. 591609422
Ralph Ferrett @ralphferrett.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I mean I can see how a changed Tory Party could make this happen; but I'm not sure it's that likely? They just aren't really doing anything, that I can see, to even try to appeal to those who just stayed home in 2024. 001
Ralph Ferrett @ralphferrett.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Of course since then a load of them have either dabbled with Reform/Restore if that way inclined in politics; or if swinging the other way in the Tory vote being systematically sidelined and ridiculed by the Tory Leader. 110
