He did. He said he’d freeze it.

Was it a sinister attempt to misguide people?

 

Just another example of Tory handouts to their mates, nothing new.

 

He wasn’t in power mate, so he could say what he wanted and it would make no difference!

 

Sorry mate, that’s laughable. That was him on the campaign trail promising no more council tax rises. It was an attempt to pull in votes and then he’s went back on it once he got into power.

 

This was from 2023 mate and Labour wasn’t in power. As I said, I know it’s doing the rounds but it’s been debunked.

 

Only he never has, which is the point I’m making.

 

We aren’t going to agree here mate. He’s said the words. They literally come out of his mouth that he’d freeze council tax and as soon as he got into power he went back on it.

 

So it's in the manifesto then? Please share the link/screenshot

 

So was that video AI?

If it was then fair enough.

 

No it was from 2023 and was in direct response to helping out when the energy prices had sky rocketed. He said he would impose a windfall tax on the energy companies that year to fund it. In his manifesto he said working people wouldn’t pay more in taxes and up to this point it’s true. What happens at the budget is anyone’s guess and if he does raise taxes as expected then he deserves the abuse he will undoubtedly get.
At that time the election hadn’t been called, so he wasn’t on the election trail. It’s what politicians do, have an unrealistic answer for whatever the subject of the day is?

 

Was Digital ID in the Labour Manifesto?

 

So, are you saying you can make all the promises under the sun when in opposition, but not be expected to keep them once in power?

Seems a bit off to me.

 

Sir Sausage releaser didn't promise to freeze energy bills either you imagined it

 

****ing derp of all time.

 

Captain U-turn to the fore

 

That's precisely what he's saying

He believes in being told lies at any cost.

 

How come Farage is a big far liar for promising to freeze council tax but Sir Starmer is allowed to lie because he's in power now & changed his mind ?
.

 

Nigel does not run the council, so more **** ups for the loser lefties

 

I agree they lie but they should also be held to account for the claims they make. I feel like I’m going mad here. There’s a video on this page with him saying he’d freeze council tax and I’m being told he didn’t say it.

 

The lies and denial here about things said and done would make ****ing Putin blush, tbh.
