He's up there with Farage for me, an odious human being

They're going to be filling the private sector's pockets big time in the next 5 years.

I'd ask you to read around the influence massive asset groups like BlackRock are about to have on this government.

The Red Tory gift to the private sector will DWARF anything that's happened thus far under the Tories. This will be the market on steroids.

New Labour was very much in the same vein, it sounds as though Wes Streeting's marketisation reforms to the NHS will have some Tory support as well.

He's insulted pro-Palestinian people, trans women, left-wing people, kids in poverty, parents in poverty. It's amazing he's risen to the highest office when he's so eminently odious and devoid of people skills. Election night was hilarious watching him lose his rag because a Muslim pro-Palestine Socialist independent candidate came within 500 votes of beating him - speaks volumes about his reputation in his constituency.

So the softening up process ‘worst set of accounts since WW2’ and ‘we’ve discovered a £20Bn black hole which we didn’t know about’ will culminate in the new Chancellor telling us all that tough decisions (tax rises) will have to take place in the next budget. Even though the numbers have been made available by the OBR for 14 years it’s come as ‘a complete shock’. Anyway, enjoy the tax rises and the hit to your future pension funds (of course any pension cap doesn’t apply to Starmer, amazing that isn’t it). Monday should be fun when this con is finally admitted to……

I have absolutely no idea how he is in the labour party, it's staggering

Well I do, but you get my point

He's a product of the NUS and Labour Students, which in the 90s and 00s was another arm of Blairism and the New Labour machine. You've got to remember that the only reason Young Labour was created by the leadership in the way it was, was to replace the Labour Party Young Socialists which had come under militant control. Young Labour even now has surprisingly always had a lot of vocal right-wing voices. A lot of them join Community as their chosen trade union and the Co-op Party.

Of course it's performative. The party was elected on a manifesto that said it wouldn't be scrapped straight away, and those 7 will have campaigned under that understanding. Them voting as they did is about as likely to deliver any change as voting on Gaza. It's virtue signalling.

Absolutely it will. The Official Tory criticism will be that they're not doing it quickly enough.

There's consensus politics again now. All on the market's terms.

The telegraph have got wind that Starmer’s ordered a box of Biros, and that Labour are now gonna introduce an oxygen tax for the over 50s.
