Looks like there will be even less to spend on the country's infrastructure in years to come, less for social services, less in benefits, pensions, if the Government follows through on raising defence spending to 5% of GDP in the years to come. But yeah, go ahead and stuff the pockets of companies that manufacture armaments. The UK is incapable of building a train that uses its tracks!!
Big if that for the 5% of GDP, there's plenty of commitments and promises at the these summit not many kept.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cq6my6v81z4o This is now the third government U-turn in a month - a major blow to the prime minister's authority. It follows on from Sir Keir reversing cuts to winter fuel payments and ordering a grooming gangs inquiry he initially resisted. Asked whether there was a pattern to Sir Keir's leadership in which he caves in if "enough people kick up a fuss", a Downing Street spokesman said: "I don't accept that. This is a government that listens." Perhaps they should listen before they make the announcements. Rather than trying to make out U turns are a positive feature of a listening government, it actually makes them look weak and indecisive. Maybe when the Don sends his boys into Iran to make the regime change, they could stop off here and change ours too.
The talk is not really of a new party itself but more a case of a grouping of different independents and others. Of course is mostly left wing Labour with Corbyn either being the focus or they are utilising his "brand" and the name "The collective" is often mentioned. Indeed I think I mentioned it a few weeks / couple of months ago in this thread! we're talking a lot of those free from the main political parties like the Palestinian independents, Corbyn and his 4 pals? And a growing number of the current Labour Left MPs as well as a few of the left ones that lost out last time going up in different constituencies against Labour "centrists." However a caveat..........Often when whispers are spread or things are leaked, they are done so on purpose with an intention! So leaking / rumouring (at least from the sitting Labour Left MPs might just be to might just be to move the direction of th leadership.......or weaken hi hold so they can get their choice in instead with no actual intention of standing independent to join a loose "grouping"
