Heidi Alexander’s appointment as transport secretary means the cabinet is now 100% state-educated for the first time in history - great stat from @georgeeaton.bsky.social

They may be state educated but when the money and power goes to your head and you forget where you came from and the reason your party was formed it means you aren’t any better than the Eton educated gov
Why is this great if their policies are antithetical to the needs of working class people? And why on earth are no journos asking who briefed the press on Lou Haigh and why? Why did Starmer want rid of her? That's the real story..
What’s antithetical to the working class about big rises in minimum wage, better employment rights, better buses and trains, better state schools, better NHS, investment in cheap renewable energy and better housing for renters and buyers??
Don't see better NHS, buses,trains or schools. Do see spiralling rental costs, pensioners on £12k losing winter fuel allowance, millions of kids in poverty b/c of 2 child ben cap & a govt that lied about energy companies not being able to raise prices. GB Energy = PFI2. Rise in NLW only positive
Clinging onto Labour in the hope they're gonna come good eventually will only end in frustration and disappointment. Starmer isn't there to give the country the change it needs but good luck anyways.
I can’t get it out of my mind that my wife would never leave the house without her phone unless I was with her, even then a rare event.
For me I check, phone,keys,wallet in that order, and have done since phones small enough and cheap enough
Ah, I’m tired and in a rush so I misread the quote and thought the implication was that there are no state educated people in the cabinet. Hence my response. My mistake! She happens to be the only politician I trust, which from the undertones of your question might disappoint you!

ICC / Hague war Crimes Trials, JUST like the privately educated!
Looks like ANYONE born in a Council Estate can become a(n) in/famous War Criminal
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY GENOCIDE
Yay!
I didn't see any of these state educated cronies turning down the free clothes, holidays and concert tickets, did you?

Thanks for keeping it civil though. 🙄
Have a great weekend.
SonOfTheToolmaker has a way to go yet to earn that title.
Still, he is a scion of The Establishment..
I really hope they are the right people for the job…
