It's like they are campaigning for Reform; the Tories are unelectable, having driven the country into the ground for a generation, Lab come in and continue the same policies.
So if Labour and Con are bith anti poor (and there will be a lot more poor next GE), who will the disenfranchised turn to?

Sorry for the UK's Miltonian political landscape.

"And in the lowest deep a lower deep,
Still threat'ning to devour me, opens wide,
To which the hell I suffer seems a heaven.”

Devils all the way down.

Reeves sat there so smug, Starmer has this nasty habit of saying one thing and doing another, he DID say many times "those with the broadest shoulders should carry the burden" In Starmers World. Heading for 1 term Wipeout.

Things can only get.... worse.

HEADLINE IS A DIRTY LIE.

Starmer's family will be better off by 2030.

This is entirely in the name of small govt dogma. A healthy state sector feeds and nurtures the rest of the economy. The notion (always bollocks) that the pursuit of profit would benefit everyone died over thirty years ago. Profit enriches the rich and buys MPs. Reeves is killing the golden goose.

What happened to taxing the rich tax avoiders?

There are still Starmer fans? After 14 years of Tories don't blame us for wanting to give him a chance and under our electoral system there really was no alternative. Had the chance and spaffed it up the wall. Never a fan, but was a tolerant! Not now.

I'm outta here ASAP, I'd rather live frugally in a field in the EU than suffer the UK

Finland are pretty well prepared - what qualifications do you have?

What we are witnessing is the implementation of 'Disaster Capitalism'
By the time the exploited cotton on to what happened, they won't be able to do anything about it. If they tried, they would be locked up citing 'to restore public order'

What is really concerning, they actually believe he is🤷‍♀️

jacgriffith.bsky.social•8 days ago

And they say we're the cult..
It's all projection.

socialistnan123.bsky.social•8 days ago

💯✌️✊

It's just as well that Starmer has never expressed his opposition to any policies that suggest a steategy of austerity.

Ha, yes.

squibbmeisteruk.bsky.social•8 days ago

Oh FFS!
Edit: possibly even a 'strategy'.
Isn't 'Auto-correct' fantastic? 🙄
