  1. I said a few weeks back, Reform would do two things, help Labour to a bigger majority and advance the case for proportional representation. They’ve done both.
  2. It wasn’t me who posted the list of just some of the mess the Tories are handing Labour.
  3. 1% of the population pay capital gains tax. I doubt many are ‘hard working’. Certainly not working hard enough at tax avoidance.
  4. I think it’s fair to say any problems handed to Labour by the Tories after nearly 15 years in office are the fault of the Tories. Examples have been given above by someone who I doubt very much is a Labour supporter.
  5. I occasionally make typos so you can pick them up and be right about something for a change. Refer Labour Manifesto for their pledge on taxes.
  6. We at least agree on the scale and breadth of the mess the Tories have created and which Labour now need to fix. ’Without raising taxes’? Labour have pledged not to raise taxes on working people.
  7. I’m rather enjoying watching the results come in. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2024/jul/04/uk-general-election-results-2024-live-in-full
  8. There’s something irrational about failing to figure out who’s fault any and all of that is. He’s a clue, the same people who told your they would ‘Stop the Boats’. How did that work out?!
  9. What?! Nobody ever bought and sold houses in the UK during a Labour Government? Are you sure?!
  10. It seems you might not be up to date with the numbers: Sunak £651 million King Charles £610 million Starmer £7.7 million (which the Daily Express refer to as ‘a staggering sum’). So Sunak is richer than King Charles and approximately 2 orders of magnitude richer than Starmer. “I don't see why some chose to differentiate between them all.” Perhaps you don’t understand the wealth gap and/or ‘orders of magnitude’. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-69027955.amp https://time.com/6979293/king-charles-net-worth-2024/ https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/life/1532935/keir-starmer-net-worth-labour-evg/amp
  11. OK stick with Sunak (richer than the King), Rees-Mogg, Alexander Boris de Pfefl Johnson and Farage. All men of the people, looking after the best interests of the Working Class.
  12. He’s a ‘Sir’ because he earned his title. He’s a millionaire because he earned his money.
  13. https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/brexit-travel-europe-sunlit-uplands-b1780492.html
  14. It was certainly a statement made by leaders of the Leave Campaign. Perhaps unaware that there is nothing more dangerous in politics than to promise better times then fail to deliver them.
  15. Because of course the Tories have got immigration under control. But they are championing ‘anti-woke’, so let’s see what the electorate think of their what they have to offer.
  16. Well the Tories delivered something, and will be rewarded for it this week.
  17. The MRP polls also indicate the Tories could be left with as few as 30 seats and the Lib Dems handed second place. Tactical voting is in play, the election results are going to be more than a like interesting.
  18. The UK is not leaving the ECHR. You can put that particular extreme rightwing wet dream out of your head. It ain’t going to happen.
