Westminster Politics



After voting AGAINST extending free school meals for the most vulnerable during school holidays in the pandemic, this prick feels that Khan’s policy isn’t helping them enough.

I’m embarrassed to have him as my MP - can’t wait for the GE and him hosting town halls.
 
The SNP have fecked it. The next leader is going to struggle and Labour will gain a swathe of seats back.

Yvette Cooper is seriously good and a fantastic Home Secretary. Miles better than anyone in the Tory party.
Lots of people are critical of Starmer and I am not a huge fan.
But the thing is that we need to look at the big picture. Whatever individuals think, he has to appeal to the wider electorate. And he is beginning to do that.
This country can not endure another Tory government. And only Labour can stop that.

Yvette Cooper is also, weirdly attractive to me.

She seems to enjoy it on an even more visceral level than even Patel did. I’m honestly not sure I can remember hating a politican quite as much as her, even Farage.

She is quite clearly a sadist and loves causing untold harm to others for no reason at all.
 
Starmer setting out his 5 missions which presumably by next week will be forgotten - but anyhow. He sounds like the Brexiteers in 2016.

Q: Brexit has contributed to lower growth. You say you will fix it. How?

Starmer says it would be a “big mistake” to think Brexit is the only explanation for the UK’s low rate of growth.

The deal with the EU does need to be improved, he says. But there are other things needed to promote growth, he says.

Which deal would that be Mr Starmer? Abandon hope all ye who sail in her.

Well he is kinda right; Brexit isn’t THE reason for all bad things, but it’s THE reason why bad things are worse here.

The problem is that he’s between a rock and a hard place:
- he can’t say Brexit was a pipe-dream created by liars and that we need to go back, because then the papers & Tories will set the hounds of hell on him and risk the General Election.
- likewise, he’s dooming his PMship as he’s saying it’s the implementation that’s the problem. He’ll find himself unable to do better without much closer alignment, and the Tories will use that failure to win the following GE.

Quite, but I was also referring to his other points, which I should have quoted like, for one, we will have the best of growth in the G7! How?
 
Therese Coffey the latest Tory minister to suggest people just either work longer or 'up-skill' if they're struggling for food...

There's not a lot of people that I would call a cnut and mean it in a bad way but this cnut is top of my cnut list.
 
There has been some thoroughly useless bastards in government in recent years (think Sharma, Jenrick, Williamson, Eustace and Whatley among others), but I can’t recall many as grotesque as Therese Coffey.

By streamlining and making things more efficient, and ensuring we have a growth focused economy, and we invest wisely, and we unlock the potential of the British people, and encourage innovation in new industries.

Although I suspect that is more detail than the Labour manifesto will give...

The game he's playing and has always played as leader is destined to fall and backfire ar somepoint because he does not have a different narrative.

The Tories will always out Tory him. Whether that's after 1 term in government or not.
