    I have tried loads of times to work out how over a period of 1 /2/3 GE's how labour manages to end up with basically nothing other than a MASSIVE black hole, like pre 2010 [ PRE 2000 ] when the coffers were flooded with £TRN'S of oil money [ had never been in coffers in such volumne before ] and selling the family silver.. yes we had a few good years and I DID VOTE in response [ not first election though ] it did take a time though 8 -10 years!! to supply zero and create the handover amount of - £trn's

    TORIES SORTED IT BY 2019 THOUGH

    What have we had train drivers/ NHS EXCEPTED [ THEY HAD MASSIVE RISES ] .. JOE PUBLIC he has had a deficit! AND only just in 1 year we are wallowing in a boat full of holes and no pumps in sight.

    our PM has become a laughing stock, partly subdued, well actually heavily shielded from attention due to other worldly events taking the limelight.

    if there is to be tax increases my hope is they up the starting point to something closer to £16K then start the first band at 25/26p and higher rate 46p then highest rate at 65p+

    Even if you give Labour the benefit of the doubt in that they did inherit a ‘black hole’ of £18bn, that’s now nearly trebled in a year due to their reckless spending and failure to cut costs whilst stifling any prospects of economic growth, hiking taxes with more rises to come, and alienating large swathes of society in the process
    They have no robust policies and no clue about anything

    the majority of fiscal wizards seemingly find it hard to support a BLACKHOLE of anything like £18,000,000,000 ....... what the odd one or 2 have said it was forward thinking.... Labour had a plan! ..it was to support and prolong strikes rail/ nhs then come to power as was always expected!!! and settle the rail and nhs pay demands ...thus giving them "a good face" however to do it they had no money! so re invented the one thing they handed tories in 2010, problem was the blackhole thing was something they had to make!!!!!!!!!!! just 2 month's into the fiscal year and tax reciepts being adjusted etc etc "you cant say there is a deficit" ...
    BIT like starting a new job and having to wait for your first month's salary!

    BBC INVESTIGATION has led to the arrest of one of the minions of a people smuggling gang.. over the past few days various sources have condemned them for giving the smugglers £1200!
    Amazing the BEEB can track down and highlight the gangs and lead to an arrest ... the first of many no doubt in that chain
    2 tier's smash the gangs ................ ????????????????

    Same as it was amazing that the French police managed to puncture a dinghy being launched towards el dorado when there was a British news crew there filming

    Will be interesting to see how the Police deal with these (banned as a terrorist organisation) Palestine Action protests given that they are supposedly being joined y the eco zealots of Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion

    By rights they should be arrested and jailed swiftly if they are Palestine Action. The others will be there just to be lawless and cause the sensible public to hate them even more than they currently do

    Yet another **** show that Starmer and all the other out of touch Westminster Bubble types have brought upon themselves is about to happen

    He called people far right and thugs for what happened in Southport. Let’s see if he calls this rabble, if they cause trouble, far left thugs. He started this stupid narrative and needs to be consistent

    It will be very interesting to see how it’s handled as they can’t arrest and jail them all, meanwhile local Police are being taken away from their jobs to man this nonsense

    The country is sick of this government, sick of a 2 tier society, and sick of immigration

    We punish the law abiding and tax them out of existence, yet reward literally everyone else who wants hand outs, and people have simply had enough of being ignored, and Labour simply don’t seem to know right from wrong.

    Even on recognising a Palestine state, Starmer has got it 1000% wrong with one US diplomat saying we would have finished as runners up if Starmer had been in charge during World War II !!
