Paul

really? care to show what they have spent money on that can be cut?
perhaps you think the extra money to the NHS, Schools, breakfast clubs etc shouldnt have been spent?

thats what they thought in Norway when they raised theirs a little, and ended up with less than they would have if they had left it alone

How exactly?
Surely the Scottish court has to recognise the primacy of parliament?

Labour need to shouting this from the roof tops.

They need to be challenging Farage over his multiple jobs.
They need to be challenging Reform over their tex exile donor base.
They need to be challenging Reform policies at every opportunity.

As does everyone else!

No, i am 72, I dont do emojis
I dont subscribe to the theory that 1 picture is worth a 1000 words

I dont really do emojis so I have no idea what that means
I take it to mean you have finally realised the futility of voting for anyone but labour
Well done!

If people vote for a fascist party how can it possibly be the fault of anyone but the voters?
The ones that were fooled by Cameron, by may, by johnson?
Was that the fault of labour too?

whatever the outcome I am happy i will be on the right side
I will vote labour, they will be a majority, minority, or leading party in a coalition.
You will vote SNP and spend 5 the next parliament bemoaning a reform government or any of the other variants
but thats where the SNP sits, moaning!

none of the policies they have introduced run contrary to the manifesto
if you think Reform voters are crying out for more house building, tenants rights, workers rights, more solar and wind, then you should look at their manifesto
Farage has never directly said anything racist, even though he is

I am not sure where the SNP aare on nuclear weapons, it depends on whether it threatens jobs, but the greens would oppose any budget with an increase in defence spending, or funding for nuclear power
the SNP would want more for scotland, the libdems would more for something else,,

I doubt any labour party would accept that, they would simply call another election, and blame the SNP, libdems, greens, for not supporting an anti-reform agenda
if all the small parties are required to beat reform there would be no policy that would get passed, not even a budget.

only in scotland, which only has 20% of the seats, so essentially that predicts that the SNP would get 30% of 20% which is around 45-50 seats.
And when, or if, you get 50 seats what are you going to do, oppose everything Reform puts forward and moan, or, if the polls are right, try and do a deal

Then, to be honest, you are stuffed, aren't you?
You will vote SNP in the hope that somehow they can get back all those seats they lost, but will end up with less than 12% of the seats in parliament
Nowhere near enough to do anything at unless you were in a coalition with the hated labour party

All that shows is that if that was the state at the next electio election, labour would be the main opposition
The smaller parties lumped together couldn't form a government

They have a majority big enough to do what they want,which is to fulfil the manifesto
I get sick and tired of people complaining they arent doing this or that, when whatever it is wasnt a promise anyway
They never promised re-joining the eu, or PR, or nationalise water

I hate pre-book because what they mean is book
But 'pre' is redundant most of the time, isn't it'
I worked in insurance and never got my head around 'pre-existing condition', which sounds to me like an illness you didn't know you had but actually means one you do know you have.

What progressive party is way ahead?
Not the libdems, SNP, or Greens
Voting for small parties will, at best, produce an anti Reform coalition with Labour as the main party.
That will produce a stalemate as there is little or nothing they agree on

But they arent really doing any of that and no one is going to give you a referendum while polls show a majority in favour of the union
You are like a child in a supermarket, I want, I want...
Get used to the simple fact, if you allow a reform government, you will have few, or no, rights.

dont be ridiculous, they are achieving a lot, but, lets face it ,anyone that votes for a tiny party like you instead of labour will usher in a Reform govt and get everything they deserve

no, it needs people like you and me to push the positives and accept they cant do everything all at once
it isnt just the government who has to fight it, its everyone
when you criticise the government you feed the narrative, the disenchantment.
People like you will herald in a Reform government

We are not sheep. We can all think for ourselves
Starmer may not be charismatic, but the amount of bills etc is a testament to what this govt is doing
Why not occasionally post about tenants and workers rights, on shore wind and solar, breakfast clubs etc

No, its the fault of people like you that keep going on about what you think they arent doing instead of praising what they are
They didnt promise PR
They have incrsed the min wage, there are no changes to existing disabled
I expected them to follow the manifesto. That's what they are doing

Nigel Farage is paid £3,600 an hour to work for GBNews.

It’s a racket.

They havent ticked some off, they are working on more than half
BBC Bias is subjective, though i agree
They have not backtracked on PR, it was never in the manifesto
If we end up with a Reform govt it will be down to the voters who didnt realise that they couldn't have everything

And another fun fact - he didn’t update his Register of Members' Financial Interests, which contains information about any financial interests an MP has, or any benefits they receive since April. Where are the corrupt MSM journos? #ukpolitics

They arrested 900 people for breaking the law, pretty much the same way they arrested protesters last year during the riots
The problem isnt the law, or the police, it is people choosing which laws to follow
Its why reform are rising high, they propose things that are unlawful and people nod along

#FALL

Then I am sure you wish to remove your inaccurate post
Water for my household makes up 2% of my income, how much was it in 1989?
In yorks, the cost of water since 2014 is in line with inflation, the cost of sewage has gone up below inflation

General ineptitude in what areas?
They are implementing far more of their manifesto than the majority of governments do
