It is dealing a major blow to the private sector while the public sector gets bigger and bigger What Lahour should have done was make massive cuts to the Ciivil Service to save billions
Rattlesnke and 2 tier Harmer are not silly ... if they had gone down that route they would not have .............. ....... leverage over the private sector as the amount of money to "be found" would have been less ....... getting rid of public workers would be akin to austerity! and job losses! ...thats blatantly job losses bearing in mind that all the money paid to train drivers and doctors is [ excessive! ] now taxable via income tax ... for every £1000 of those pay rises it is taxed at 40%. SO if the bill to pay them is £10,000,000,000 then the income tax income is £4,000,000,000 in 2026 / 2027 that is pure profit!
BRISTOL CITY COUNCIL is doing a survey to let people know they are going to have a massive leap in council tax rise planning on a 10% rise! to get around half of the £51,000,000 debt accrued by the charlatan disguised as Lord Mayor with his labour trending idealogy over his term in office... how many times did the road works around templemeads get changed and how long did they take! all this on top of the £30,000,000 they are getting from clean air zone [ I didnt mention that when I did the survey ] Please share your views in the Budget 2025-26 consultation by midnight on Thursday 19 December: www.ask.bristol.gov.uk/budget-2025-26
we already pay a premium for our gas and electric because wind generators get paid OTO ..now it seems we pay them twice as ..................... ................. Britons have shelled out an "absurd" £1billion to temporarily shut down wind turbines in 2024 alone, a damning new report has revealed. With Britain's energy grid struggling to cope with the power generated by high winds, turbines across the land have been "curtailed" to protect it from surges. The so-called curtailment is where wind turbines are paid to switch off at times of high winds to stop a surge in power overwhelming the grid - and households and businesses are expected to pay for this through their bills. And in the first 11 months of 2024, the cost of the temporary shutdowns has skyrocketed into 10-figure sums - beating out 2023's £779million and 2022's £945m. Clem Cowton, director of external affairs at Octopus, said: "The outdated rules of our energy system mean vast amounts of cheap green power go to waste. "It's absurd that Britain pays Scottish wind farms to turn off when it's windy, while simultaneously paying gas-power stations in the South to turn on. "We need to change the rules that govern our system to make the most of our homegrown energy and get bills down for British households and businesses."
Ministry of Justice (MoJ) data has revealed that a quarter of foreign criminals went on to reoffend in the UK after being released from jail and remaining in the country. Each of the 3,235 foreign offenders freed from jail accounted for three crimes on average, giving the total in the year to March 2022 of 10,012 further offences. That represented a rise of 25 per cent on the previous year’s total of 8,021 offences committed by 2,462 freed foreign criminals. Over the four years of the data, released by the MoJ in a parliamentary question, foreign offenders were responsible for around 40,000 crimes. Offences ranged from murder to knife possession and drug-dealing. no wonder our jails are full of foreigners!
PMQ's is becoming a joke ... the concept of a Q is to get an A hence you many references in all sorts of forms of a section which says Q & A [ also get ratings and comments etc ] AGAIN today 2 ier Harmer failed to give an answer to any Q in his exchange with KB even on 2 Q's [ 2 &3 ] giving comments on the previous [ Q1 ] although reminded of the actual Q being asked. Although he lost a vote yesterday to reform the voting system ,,, he refuses to make room for a discussion in this parliament .. he knows based on the last GE ... HE WOULD LIKELY NOT BE THERE AS IS ... ACTING LIKE A CLOWN IN CHARGE OF UNKNOWLEDGEABLE MP's [ business wise ] and having to lie through his teeth with everything crossed!!!!!!!!
You’ve been watching it long enough to know that’s par for the course. PM ‘s never answer the questions, never have. Boris was particularly good at it. When he did answer he Often gave false answers, like saying meetings didn’t take place, when in fact they had.
there has been a "few" occassions in the past but this is now on a different unprecedented level not only not giving an answer but not confirming the truth and answering the wrong Q ... SOMETHING HE WAS REGULARLY PULLED UP ON AS AN OPPOSITION LEADER. ... this was due to the fact he had what was thought to be the likely reply to his Q .. EXPECTING it to not be answered or in a different way he had the "answer on his crib sheet provided by his spin doctors" ... he never got anywhere the answer... except of course when his newbie stooges asked the QUESTION to which he had the answer on his crib sheet note Q's to PM used to take 22--24 mins now around 12 to 15!?
In my experience they never answer the questions, it’s like watching Geoff Boycott, just straight batting everything. You’re now seeing it through the eyes of the opposition, rather than the PM.
just about sums it up ... .... I never had much faith in a government fronted by the likes of Ed Miliband, David Lammy, and Rachel Reeves. In fact, if this were a comedy, Starmer's Cabinet picks would be considered too slapstick to air on TV. Of course, while Labour would like to praise the diversity of this government - which incidentally is strikingly, er, white, compared with the last Tory government, but who cares - that is precisely what they lack: diversity. True diversity of experience that is... not the shallow, skin-deep woke 'diversity' the left likes to shove down our throats. Never mind Keir Starmer nominating complete incompetents to key ministerial roles. It is the glaring lack of private-sector business experience that is the most concerning. And it has never been more apparent. Virtually every member of the government has built their career in the public sector, sucking on the teat of government money and never making the tough decisions small business owners have to make. Indeed, compared to fifty years ago, Parliament has become less, not more, diverse. Where are the industry leaders, the chemists, the plumbers, the electricians and the teachers? Where are the people who don't owe their career progression to lobby groups, quangos or the civil service? Surely we can do better than human rights lawyers, Oxford PPE graduates and Labour student activists? But that is precisely what we have.
5 months in power and they are already performing a ‘reboot’/ ‘reset’ That’s the sort of thing you would usually hear after 2-3 years from a Government The French Government have just been brought down by forcing through very unpopular tax rises. Let’s hope the same happens here with this bunch of amateurs And STILL no mention of migration or immigration in this reset !
The last lot mentioned immigration in every manifesto since 2010, yet failed to deliver each time, great job they made of it
This is how many times Labour voted against stopping the boats. please log in to view this image 134 times Labour voted against plans to stop the boats
Out of interest does that mean the Tories had 134 planned attempts to stop the boats and failed each time? If it does that’s one hell of a record of failure wouldn’t you agree?
they didnt exactly place a cross they argued against the plan /s put forward and when asked 134 times what would you do they didnt have a plan I am an electric kettle ! thats why
Despite all your bluff and bluster, and deflecting. The question still remains, if they didn’t need labours votes, why didn’t they resolve the issue?
