    Done
    The guy oversees a huge murder rate and penalises Londoners for travelling, and has turned our capital into a place I have no desire to visit any longer
    He’s ruined London
    And that’s just for starters
    But what do you expect from another Labour run council ?
    He’s a total disgrace

    As it’s been pointed out before Labour didn’t have a % win this time either, but got a 174 seat majority. A much better thought Is all the useless Tory MP’s that ACTUALLY did lose their seats just a few short months ago <laugh>

    They’ll all be looking over their shoulders if they’ve got any sense

    Check who Britain First are? Are they the left cheek of the NF, the right cheek of the BNP, or the arsehole?

    It just demonstrates the regard the people have for the current status quo, people are venting opinions, expressing feelings, Starmer and the rotten bunch have been exposed but we have 4.5 years of this bullshit to endure.

    It could be worse, it could be Boris, the habitual liar, or even Lizz Truss, oh hang in a minute we’ve already had to put up with them, Truss wasn’t even voted for by the general public.

    And yet
    They seemed competent compared to what we have now
    Which tells you all you need to know about modern British politics
    Change is needed again and I believe it will arrive, and the majority of the British public will finally get people who are actually on their side, the next time around

    Starmer and his shower stock answer is ' 5 Missions' - ' 6 First Steps' - ' 7 Pillars for Growth' - '6 Milestones' - ' 3 Foundations' - All waffle and bullshit.

    AND a big AND We the public have to pay the cost of a couple £bn a year not to generate!
    1 turbine 4.5mw [ when buying 5 or more costs around £5million to set up ] It would earn around £2+million per unit, per annum so "free" electric income for around 15+ years! [ thats allowing for maintenance costs ]

    The rest of us on here readily accept that the Tories made mistakes in many ways over the previous 14 years, from lies, sleaze, immigration, policing etc etc etc
    But you can’t seem to accept any criticism of your beloved Labour Party despite them already demonstrating that they were totally unprepared for Government and still are
    What exactly have they been doing for all that time ? Not learning any lessons that’s for sure
    They’ve already done many of the same things the Tories did, and worse whilst alienating millions of people
    America is about to have seasoned, skilled and ultra successful businessmen running it, and because they are business savvy, they will cut waste, slim down the state, be energy self sufficient, protect jobs, restore pride and put the money back in peoples pockets that the Democrats stole in perusing stupid idealogies

    We’ve got the exact opposite and we will remain poor and watch an ever bloated state dictate how they want us to live, when we should be calling the shots

    If you read my posts I’ve said many times that they’ve not had the best of starts, I’ve been critical of the way the went about removing winter payments, I agree it shouldn’t be universal, but that there should be a fairer way of calculating who gets it, and it should cover a lot more than just those on pension credits, I’ve also stated that the care system should be integrated with the NHS. So to say I’ve not been critical is just not true.

    But to suggest, as some are that with the last lot all the things in the garden was rosy is complete nonsense, just take a look around, we are in a mess.

    I just think we just all need to take a step back and let them get on with things for a while.

    If, and there won't be, a General Election held now the blue vote would be split 50/50.
    The only way to be rid of the Labour government, in 5 years, is for the Reform and Tory Party agree to a voting pact.

    all built on bullshit and will likely sink ....

    Although a deep hard look into each category, they/some do have some merits.... but because they are anti what is best viz .."a tories thought of that so not doing it! mindset" they could get some little progress but at what cost as they [ sir 2 tier harmer] as spouted out yesterday in overly long boring drivel ] 20 departments are all supposed to pull together .

    I think Reform might overtake the Tories in the polls eventually, especially if more Tory MPs defect to Nigel Farage and then there could be a merger, as no one will want another 5 years of this and if it’s left as a 3 or 4 party race it will play into the hands of Flip Flop and Co

    absolutely right, the unfair of being a pension credit holder is that you often are because of it, being a lot richer than a pensioner because of all the other benefits, who misses out being on pension credit by say as much £1000 per annum! let alone the odd story of x pence a week to much to qualify!
    you get with a pension credit at least up to 10 other benefits / discounts / payments which if all applied is a couple of grand extra.

    maybe a pensioner over 76 should get it, thats like 10 years into retirement! or all those on the old pension who currently get £100 per month less !

    labour is hindsight they have to screw it up before they have a chance in getting it right!

    Liz Truss came over as a disaster... it was unfortunate that at that time she took on the seat the whole world was suffering from higher inflation USA WAS AROUND 9% ..other countries up to 10 or 12% it didnt last it was over within a quarter [ stated by BOE no recession] ALTHOUGH THE PATH DOWN TO 2% has been cleverly and successfully CRAfTED BY THE TORIES!!! people hold on to bad vibes more easily than good ones a constant battering og negativity was surely going to out on top

    I have to say you are the only person I’ve seen trying to defend Liz Truss, apart from the complete mess she made of the economy she was completely out of her depth, I actually felt sorry for her. But to attempt to defend her is beyond belief.

    OH NO not again .................. I am not defending her merely pointing out her time in office was at a bad time worldwide politically ... no matter who was in the driving seat at the time would have gone through the time period of history with little to do but try and avoid complete disaster .... thanks to Rishi and the .gov since we have inflation back around 2% and interest rates falling...

    ps although interest fell mortgages went up as the BOE rate is added on top of the mortgage base rate which is set from a number of different monetary pots .. most of which Rattlesnake has now upset

    Goal: 100,000 Signatures


    ADDRESSED TO: THE PRIME MINISTER, KEIR STARMER
    Sadiq Khan is to be knighted in the New Year's ‘honours’ list.

    He has shared a platforms with extremist Islamists, described moderate Muslims as ‘uncle Toms’, and his office was exposed for saying that white families don’t represent real Londoners.

    All crime (especially knife crime) has skyrocketed under his watch.

    He has single-handedly reduced London, our capital city, to a Third World slum!

    We demand that Sadiq Khan be immediately removed from the honours list and not receive a knighthood under any circumstances.

    This is why we have launched an emergency petition.

    We want to hand this petition to 10 Downing Street, so we need 100,000 signatures minimum.

    Please add your name to the petition below:
