Hi from the UK

Hi I am a labour supporter from the UK. We are currently in the hangover from the bexit vote combined with a meltdown in the Labour party. Trust me you don't want to feel like this in November!

Keep On Keeping On. You can do this. I am convinced.

I'm slightly late, I see, since you've been here about a week. We have a UK group, if you haven't found it - http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=forum&id=1088 - where the Labour leader contest is obviously a topic, though, as you say, it does feel a bit like a hangover at the moment - nearly all of the Brits on DU were remainers, though of varying strengths, I guess. But we're also around the rest of the forum, with variations on "you cannot be serious" with the Trump situation.

Yeah. It certainly feels like a hangover, though without the fun of getting drunk.

I feel confident that our US friends are not going to overshadow us by electing Trump though.

Britain is a wonderful country. My parents toured there some time ago. They saw the famous Big Ben clock and went on the London Eye ride. My mom doesn't like heights but she made it!
