Current Affairs The Labour Party

[Alan Whittle]

“ The Prime Minister should also stop deliberately confusing “the economy” with the public finances – a mistake which reveals a man with little experience or knowledge of how business and the private sector operate.

The latter are in a mess, the former isn’t. Average real pay in Britain has been rising since 2023 – one of the most powerful “pull through” indicators of public optimism about the state of their lives. Inflation has been falling since 2022. Britain has the fastest growing economy in the G7 club of richest nations, unemployment is declining. The economic atmospherics are positive.

Reeves suffers from the same affliction, famously saying that she had inherited the worst economic conditions since the Second World War – stretching the credulity of the public, even those who can’t remember the era of ration books and bomb sites.”…..

Things are so fantastic, it makes you wonder how on earth the Tories were obliterated at the recent General Election. People eh?

I think Joey wants to train a new generation of weed growers, albeit with a huge potential to avoid tax, which he seens okay with. Mind you, if one sets a grow up in a house next door to a poor pensioner, there'd be significant heat generated one could pipe in. Joey for PM!

What on earth is happening in here?!

He paid 6% like me but his final salary pension which has been changed now does not apply to him if it was a civil service pension they did not pay a penny into one in the 1970s ... he will be on 3/80s of his final salary with a massive lump sum to boot ....

He did not need 60 grand off an ex Tory donor for suits FGS ....

They were pretty well made suits though.

You beat me to the punch; it's utterly mental!

Embrace it.

 

[Alan Whittle]

I met him at my peat free conference workshop

I think you may be on to something….

 

[Tommy.]

Embrace it.

The only clear solution is to remove the vote from the over 60's.









Aaaaaaannd go.

I’ve explained all this but you guys refuse to accept it had nothing to do with the economy and everything to do with getting rid of backstabber Sunak. Farage managed to get nearly half the votes that Starmer did, ask yourself why……

As long as they remove the ability to tax the over 60’s then no problem. What drove the US to independence…’no taxation without representation’………

Ah, he mopped up the mouth breathing flag shagging Brexiter vote?

Obviously I was being facetious, Peter.

To be honest, I'm still reeling from your claiming you were a "school governor" with your grammar?

Tsk tsk.

An OAP stated last night next election the pen is mightier than the sword .....

 

[peteblue]

Starmers comments about things will get worse before they get better must be referring to his and Reeves performances so far……

Lightening quick wit.

Indeed.

‘Sue Johnston’s first day on set, she was biting someone’s nose off’: Ben Wheatley on his zombie drama Generation Z

The horror director’s TV debut is a coming-of-age gang show like Skins, but with doomscrolling, toxic masculinity and death by pensioner – he brings plenty of visceral gore with him
