That cabinet minister Pat McFadden has done the morning broadcast rounds claiming huge numbers are “signing on” to PIP daily demonstrates why the government has a rebellion on its hands: the disability benefits cuts are not simply immoral - they are based on blatant lies few MPs wish to repeat.

Starmer "I sat next to Trump at dinner." School day fantasies of being chosen by the school bully to eat the cabbage he didn't want

submitted 2 days ago • 0 comments

Keir Starmer is an embarrassment to the Labour Party and the country as a whole. Scrabbling on the floor on your knees in front of a dictator, both metaphorically and for real is not what the Labour Party should be doing.

The NHS is an easy way to describe how socialism works for all of us. At least it was until Blair, the Tories and now Streeting want to make it another private company honey pot.

Like the drunk who searches for his lost keys only under the streetlights, the Labour Party seems to be saying they can only change things for the better where Capitalism allows them to.

The @guardian today tells me that "Beyoncé UK tour spurs cowboy fashion craze." Well "Yippee-ki-yay" but walking around Basingstoke I'm yet to see any evidence to support that claim.

One of the most frightening things about the @DailyMailUK is that intelligent people who avoid politics but want to read about TV, or gardening or health issues, think the Mail allows them to do just that without any politics.

Chekhov wrote that if you introduce a gun into the story, it's going to be used. Bringing profit making into the #NHS, ensured it would be abused

Do Reform voters know that Farage favours replacing the nhs with an American insurance system. The Americans pay twice as much per head for healthcare yet millions are not covered. The largest healthcare company queries 1/3 of claims. #reform #nhs #farage

Millions of people are worried about paying their rent, feeding their kids or losing vital disability benefits. If the government cared about people's security, it would reverse cruel cuts, end child poverty and pursue an agenda for peace. Let's fund welfare, not warfare.

On Facebook they post endless warnings about Nigel Farage. Last week Starmer did a big giant speech about the dangers of Farage. All the while they're trying to be him. It would be like saying "I hate David Bowie, he's so shit" while sporting a red glitter lightning bolt over one eye.
