If nothing else I think it's important that people know Labour have heard your ideas and criticisms. Because it makes all the cuts and raising taxes on lower incomes more insulting when they clearly know what the alternatives are and still choose that. Would love to hear them justify that choice.

Yes 100%. This would be a great opportunity to get them to respond to big questions like why won't they tax the rich, why do they ignore distribution, why does nobody ask who the money from COVID went to? Let them answer,deconstruct them, then people can decide if those answers hold any weight.

How naive it is to think that someone who sells individualism and believes empathy is a weakness, might care about you at all. He cares about people as far as he can use them. You don't become a billionaire by caring about other people.

Then would barely let him get in a word in edgewise to try and reset the conversation. They didn't want peace they wanted a public humiliation.

I feel like, people need to understand that the difference between a billionaire and a millionaire, is the same as between a millionaire and a guy with 1000 pounds. people going on the defense 'cause they're doing alright and they assume you are coming to take their money. It's not about you!

The US have clearly demonstrated they are no longer allied with Ukraine against Russia and therefore any other alliances they had pre-trump are now in question.

Surely no one could possibly "buy" votes, with money? Wonder how many votes you could buy with 250 million dollars...

We can't vote our way out of this situation, we need to get more people to see this and hopefully get behind it. Maybe with enough support and coordination we can do something. But most people just parrot the lies mainstream media tell them (it's immigration, global markets, low productivity etc).
