Starmerism
(noun)
Pejorative slang for the hypocritical, weak, destructive governance style of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his Labour government. It combines Orwellian double-think, two-tier policing, institutional destabilisation of Britain, DARVO tactics. The government blames "the far right" for every problem while punishing normal British people for noticing the mess, not voting Labour, or calling out the failures.
Key Features:
Two-Tier: Harsh rules and swift arrests for native Brits protesting mass migration, grooming gangs, or knife crime. Leniency for certain minority groups or left-wing protests. Deny the bias while everyone sees it.
Boogeyman: Any criticism of open borders, failing services, tax raids, winter fuel cuts, broken promises is labelled "far-right thuggery" or "racism." Classic DARVO: deny failures, attack the public, elite as victims.
Destabilisation as Renewal: Flood Britain with unsustainable migration, hammer working class with stealth taxes, erode cohesion, act shocked by riots, blame everyone except your own incompetence.
Spineless Leadership: Bland, evasive technocrat with no soul or conviction, endless flip-flops. Promises fiscal responsibility then delivers record tax hikes. Talks "national renewal" amid managed decline. Often called empty managerialism or "politics of nothing."
Related terms:
Starmerite (deluded supporter still pretending it’s working)
Starmering (verb: deflecting blame onto the public while looking smug)

"Another day of Starmerism: two-tier justice, blaming the far right for the inevitable consequences of mass migration, and calling concerned citizens 'thugs' while the country falls apart."
"Starmerism isn't a political philosophy. It's just endless gaslighting wrapped in a suit."

Gothpunk
Although designated to the Goth - Rock - Punk movement in general, which definitely predates use of this term, 'GothPunk' was first coined by Mark Rein-Hagen for the White Wolf publications series of originally five World of Darkness storytelling game books, most notable of which is Vampire: the Masquerade, 1991.

Dharma
Dharma means ‘everything in its right place’ just as Karma means ‘a things journey to its right place’.
Dharma is a state of balance.
Dharma associates with King Damuz after whom the Babylonian-Assyrian city of Damascus is named. Damuz taught a philosophy of civil and natural Order, necessary for the stability of urban living which at that time involved inner-city urban agriculture to create siege-proof self-sufficient city states.
