      Life was decent under Blair... Mortgage rates in check, inflation in check, unemployment okay, schools okay, and the NHS? Highest satisfaction rating ever.
      Dodgy war, perhaps, but Saddam was a twat at the end of the day.

      Blair 2.2. So a repeat of Labour winning elections and achieving masses in office. We can but hope.

      @@carlharding5311 Really? Explain what they are going to achieve?! Ever since Starmer was elected, he's abandoned every pledge. Former head of the CPS and could have had J.S convicted . He was there when the Post Office scandal and the CPS were responsible for prosecuted for 100's of innocent sub- postmasters. Yet in both cases will have you believe he never saw the paperwork. Beer and Curry night in the pandemic, was cleared by chief of police who is a member of the Labour Party and was also there! Going back to Blair, sent us into an illegal war. Him and Brown were responsible for the failed PFI scheme that we are still paying for today! Let's not forget, Brown sold our Gold off at the lowest possible rate. Yet, you think they will be great again?! Please don't vote until you understand 😒

    It’s a good thing less the civil service can represent their views less they Mendel with the laws.

    Is a lanyard with swastikas on just a lanyard with lines?
    Symbols express political views and it is right to ban them all in the civil service as a matter of principle. It appears Starmer doesn't do principles though.

      So thinking Gay people should have rights and feel safe in this country is a political view? Not just that, but it’s on the same level as supporting Nazi genocide?

    How can labour claim to support LGBT issues and also desire open borders with total unchecked immigration...

    • @ProsecutorZekrom
      @ProsecutorZekrom 11 днів тому

      Labour have never once said they will allow open borders. In fact Starmer has said more funding should go towards processing asylum seekers, and the fact that cuts are made is what leads to unprocessed asylum seekers being holed up in 4 star hotels.
