    “Things can only get worse before they get better.”

    We have already seen that the Labour version of “levelling up” is an undisguised “levelling down”. Start with pensioners: fourteen years of the ‘triple lock’ have spared them the ravages of “austerity” so now winter fuel payments are going. In her naïvety, Rachel Reeves thinks there is a saving being made but many pensioners will surely apply for tax credits instead, assisted with the bureaucracy by groups such as Age UK.

    Just like the previous government, the Red Tories have no competent ministers, just a bunch of technocrats being led by the nose by the Establishment. The public sector has ballooned out of control, packed with slackers expecting healthy pensions funded by private sector taxpayers.

    If Starmer can do a deal with Europe that will allow young people some sort of ‘freedom of movement’ then they could possibly leave this sinking ship by migrating to the larger European sinking ship, holed below the waterline several times in the last fifty years.

    As it is Starmer has demonstrated a complete ignorance of how the EU works. He used to make a living fighting human rights cases in the European courts but he keeps lying about negotiating deals with individual countries. Anyone that thinks we were a laughing stock when Sunak was PM should watch the EU and the world laughing at Starmer.

    Which genocide is that? There is no genocide. Have you been taking it up the arse from Owen Jones again? I notice that he has created a new Twatter account as he was getting too much traffic on the old one.

    He cannot alienate core Labour voters. They stop at Greggs on the way to the polling station. Doing something about obesity would mean fewer slobs clogging up the NHS but job losses as Greggs closed the shops, driving up unemployment benefit outlays.

    It's totally ****ed whichever way you look at it. There are simply too many people claiming unemployment benefits. If they have no inclination to work, sling them out.

    I've always been for that, if after a year or 2 you've no medical reason to not work and you've refused any training/apprenticeships then your benefits should be cut. Everyone needs to chip in for society to function.

    Even when they do work it’s warehouse, Deliveroo, barber shops with no customers. Almost none are a net contributor. If it’s not a sort after skill such as nursing or caring then sling them out too.

    To be honest, we are at a point where you should be refused entry if you do not have a job lined up or if you don't have a few quid to support yourself for at least six months.

    That eye-watering bill of £8 billion is sickening. Just think what we could do with that amount of dosh each year. Personally, I'd end homelessness and also ensure every animal sanctuary has a hefty budget.

    A full out Nuclear War is the only plausible solution.

    Mutually Assured Destruction will rid this flat planet of all its problems <ok>
