UK Wes Streeting’s NHS Gamble: Labour’s Make-or-Break Moment
The Cyclist replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Every Government Dept, The NHS, Police etc, should have a long term plan, reviewed and updated every year. It is the lack of long term planning that has enabled every Public Service to fall into the mess that they are currently in. I'll accept that there are other factors involved, which also fall under the no long term strategy umbrella. On the above, we can agree. 1 year in and Labour are finding out the difference between rabble rousing in opposition, and sitting in the big chair with the responsibilities that go with that. They went into the GE, claiming loudly that they had a plan ready to go from day 1. U- Turn after U-Turn, clearly shows that they not only did they not have a plan, they still don't have a plan. The current funding model and Modus Operandi ofthe NHS, dictates that it will never change, only tinkering at the edges will occur. -
And lets remind ourselves of what he had to say only months ago. In keeping with Starmers warcry of openness and transparency. I think it is only fair that Musk donates all the info stored on his servers to the Inquiry. And then jail every single person, involved in covering up, facilitating, or doing nothing.

UK Aid Budget Strained as Asylum Hotel Costs Surge Amidst Overseas Cuts
The Cyclist replied to Social Media's topic in World News
They are all breaking the law by crossing the Channel illegally and breaking the law by landing on UK shores without having leave to do so. That makes them not only Illegal but also criminals. Another 900 landed on Friday. Another approx £ 45 million spunked up a wall. -

You struggling ? This beyond your comprehension skills ? I could explain it further. What I cannot do is make you understand that explanation. -
Behind the facade of the Rightwing Moral Crusade
The Cyclist replied to Chomper Higgot's topic in Political Soapbox
Well reading the comments, he seems to have been in both parties. Which puts you, and your OP in a bit of a quandary. And perhaps reinforces, that perverts and their perversions are nothing to do with Politics or Political Parties. Try not to struggle getting your head around that, I wouldn't like to see you suffering from an aneurism. -

UK UK economy shrinks by the most since 2023
The Cyclist replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I'll stick with the BDS, for those that wish to shoehorn Brexit into an unrelated topic. It's a serious condition, and many are afflicted by it. -

I will try to break this to you gently ( Even though it has nothing to do with the topic ) UK GDP grew every year ( Covid aside 2020 ) since Brexit I'm not convinced that there will by any growth in 2025. The normal good start to the year ( Q1 ) 0.7%, has in the month of April been reduced by 0.3%. Tariffs or no tariffs, I'm not seeing anything that is pointing to additional growth, only further decline. -

I'm saying that Brexit is nothing to do with the thread, which is To bring up brexit, is a nasty case of BDS. Unlucky. -

You poor deluded child The " Growth " required to pay for that investment ( All £2.2 Trillion of it ) is heading South. Just a reminder, from that well known Right Wing Political mouthpiece 😀😀 https://www.politico.eu/article/uk-labour-party-project-growth-rachel-reeves-economy-public-services/ The fat lady has sung, and is now in her death spiral -

The OP doesn't mention the £500 million fall in april exports to the EU. Was that a result of Trumps Trade policies as well 😀😀😀😀 Keep banging that lonely drum. -

The only 2 facts in my post were 1 Growth fell by 0.3% in April 2. Payrolls reduced by 109,000 in April. Non of them counter factual or nonsense. So it must be you that is spouting counter factual nonsense, yet again, yet again, yet again, yet again. See the trend yet ?- 34 replies

All hail Rachel from Customer care. And this is just the start. A few posters might recall that I advised them months ago, that the real carnage would not manifest itself until the growth killing Budget had worked its way through the system, especially the Employer triple whammy of raised NI contributions, Lowered NI thresholds and rise in the minimum wage, which took effect in April. April payroll count dropped by 109,000 April Growth dropped by 0.3%. And this is just the beginning. £2.2 Trillion splurged on the Spending Review, to be paid for by growth 😀😀😀😀😀 Lunatics running the asylum.- 34 replies

Labour Rift Deepens as Rachel Reeves Faces Spending Review Showdown

Humza Yousaf: Immigration gamble by Labour a dangerous mistake
The Cyclist replied to Social Media's topic in World News
You missed the context of the question, which wasn't about banning the burqa. It was a trap for Starmers closer moves to the EU, where other Countries have banned the burqa. Anyway, interesting article from the Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/jun/07/zia-yusuf-return-reform-uk
