We're basically coasting on the achievements of prior administrations. Unfortunately we've had 14 years of Conservative government, and the prior Labour one was the most neoliberal Labour administration there has ever been

I mean, coasting is not how I'd put it, sinking like a stone is more like it. NHS is collapsing, housing is utterly unaffordable, costs of living are skyrocketing, protests are banned, gender affirming care for young people is banned, it's a pretty horrid place to be right now.

Yeah, can't disagree with any of that
