The process of being demoted from US vassal to periphery is causing positive change in the class interests of the UK, internationally. Starmer obviously still represents the UK’s bourgeoisie, but there’s fighting between the domestic bourgeoisie and the US Empire’s. Imperialist infighting.
I’ve long had this thought that real changes almost exclusively come about when the bourgeois class has a split and starts infighting. What I saw during the five-year debacle that was the lead up to Brexit was bourgeoisie having power struggles with other bourgeoisie. The media messages were mixed, the money was in confusing places, there was no clear understanding where anyone stood.
It’s those weak moments that entities (ideally already well put-together socialist orgs) often have a real chance to exploit and consequently make a big difference. Divide and conquer I suppose.
In this case, it’s actually China getting involved and offering an actually good deal in order to bring about the downfall of US hegemony, which is kind of potentially huge.

I agree, big changes may be coming!
