Same feelings about Mick Lynch. Sitting in his mansion telling people with very little money to stay away from work and do without money, whilst his big wage continues to drop in the bank every month.Going to post my vote tomorrow.
I looked at all the candidates and some were easy for me to dismiss, that being Greens and Lib Debs, I think Ed Davey of those two has made a great effort to be noticed but sadly not enough to change my mind on their past choices, and I'm not convinced those problems have gone away.
That leaves the independents, Reform and Labour...
The independents can be tempting, but I need to get the Tories out and make sure the most suitable party gets in...That is not Reform. Nothing to do with Farage's recent comments, I think I've voiced my views on the EU and NATO enough times, but there is more important issues here at stake for the UK, NHS, Schools, Housing, Cost of Living, blah blah blah - I don't feel I can trust Reform with all these things, we don't need more billions squandered.
I do have the option of not voting, but my cross is on Labour, for one reason and one reason only, I trust the integrity of Starmer even if he don't say alot. He promises nothing, but I don't want broken promises, I also trust him not to steal from us and for all those other things we want to achieve, if we get a small fraction of them from not giving money to our tory mates, then it's a start.
Once Starmer gets in, I accept he could be removed and as long as I don't see that Thornberry anywhere near the despatch box, I can live with it. If she does then I'll be stealing Pinkies bike and parking it in her backside. As for the militant fringe don't get me started on them, I hope Mick Lynch chokes on his whiskey lol
So Starmer gets loaned my vote for 5 years....ffs...

The only thing that could scupper my vote is if the Royal Mail decide to go on strike, now that would be funny.
The guy is a fraud.
Government destroys £1.4bn of PPE from one Covid deal

To be fair not sure why that's front page news.
From reading the article, all that ppe is was fine and within regulations and was supplying nhs even before the **** hit the fan.
The reason they are getting rid of it now is because its past its best before date not because they were ****ty tory rushed in ppe

don't blame them as they became targets despite this just being a pure case of yet more NHS incompetence .
Since they still pay UK taxes who cares .
Don't think it was the 'NHS' allocating lucrative PPE contracts to Tory donor companies and the coffers of Mone and hubby ...
Guy is a champion of his people, if only we had a government with half the fight and intelligence Mick has and we might not be in this utter mess we're in now.
Id vote for him for pm if i could
It’s a bit **** that they destroy it all though - sure there are plenty of countries that would take it. We use to provide all our out of date PPE to hospitals in Papua New Guinea when we worked there.
If we had known we weren’t going to use it 2years ago we could have shipped it somewhere and the saved storage costs would have probably covered the shipping.
I know you are new to this voting thing but you can’t vote for anyone for PM.
That would have required someone with a functioning brain in government...
well that was part of "NHS incompetence" reference . Use or give it to care homes , MSF , Unicef , other countries instead we spend a fortune storing it and then destroying it
err this stuff was from a legitimate and longstanding supplier and has nowt to do with the VIP lane from what has been reported
For 'privacy' reasons
Mrs Stoute and her husband bought a £30m seafront villa in Barbados; a yacht; a £6m house in the south of England and an international equestrian centre in Bedfordshire.
The BBC understands that at least £100m of public money has additionally been spent on storing and incinerating the excess stock since its purchase.
you seem surprised that the owners of what had become a hugely successful business made a ton of money and are now spending some of it .For 'privacy' reasons
