  1. Nick Ferrari giving tough questions to a Tory minister? It truly is the End Times 😳
    454
  2. "This is not the same party as under Corbyn" You've got that correct. You're Tories in red now
    404
  3. In the context of this conference, "woke" is a word they throw around to distract from the fact all their actual policies are utterly terrible
    258
  4. The reform needed for the NHS is less private involvement, not more Shareholders don't improve patient outcomes
    111
  5. If the government can't manage minimum service on non strike days, can we sack the government?
    106
  6. The hesitation and desperation in the "what would a persecuted African teenager do" section would be delicious if it wasn't so painfully tragic for real people out there right now
    91
  7. "Only GBNews cover the Reform conference" isn't that because Nige barred any other journalists from getting in?
    83
  8. Still cracks me up every time a Tory points out that the system, that the Tories have been in charge of for 12 years, is broken!
    77
  9. 'But I used every "pretend not to be racist" phrase I know! How did they see through my ruse?'
    69
  10. Tories: People should cook their own food Also Tories: If you can't afford food, work more hours Will there be time to cook after working all hours?
    63
  11. Is this Chris "the liar" Phelp, who Mick Lynch called out for being a liar?
    53
  12. A revolving door between parliament, the banking sector and the media 🤔
    48
  13.  @WhatIsBacon  it's a very poor showing when the pro free market Party doesn't know the very basics of free markets 🙄
    48
  14. The Labour party are now so Thatcherite, even the Financial Times are left of Starmer's labour. Our politics are bizarre
    47
  15. It's a simple question for me - we are a wealthy country. We should have the money to a lot more than we do Do we make society fairer for everyone, and put that money into homes and public services for everyone? Or do we let inequality spiral, and see everyone but the 1% have their standards of living fall? We know Tories have always got more money for their chums
    39
  16. @Believe-you-me-  alright, convince me. Which policy proposed by Starmer, Reeves or Streeting would be out of place in the Cameron/Osborne manifesto?
    35
  17. If being against raw sewage is being against the Tories, does that mean the Tories are for pumping raw sewage?
    33
  18. If he was thinking it through, he'd go do some robberies to claim his free dental!
    33
  19. This is what change sounds like! Rather than Starmer's 'change', which appears to begin and end at the colour of the party rosettes 🙁
    31
  20. ​ @thekurgan3688  the Tories got about 40% of the vote. That isn't the majority of people by any stretch!
    31
  21. I genuinely feel sorry for that last guy, who tried to intelligently tackle the economic and demographic challenges of reducing immigration He is going to have a bad time when he meets his new colleagues, and discovers their "insights"...
    30
  22. The problem with moving from EU prices to world prices is we also move from EU wages to world wages...
    26
  23. "class war, in all it's full, naked glory" If you didn't want class war, maybe you shouldn't have spent 14 years crapping on ordinary people? Just a thought!
    24
  24. I think my favourite bit might have been Mogg saying how much he thinks the government has failed Who is in charge again?
    24
  25. So her ideas are good, as long as you never ever implement them Did I understand it correctly?
    24
  26. Leopards eating faces politics
    23
  27.  @jjefferyworboys8138  I want a successful, productive country. They've had decades to show that they can invest in the nation and grow the economy, and they have failed, spectacularly If they've not got any better plans for that wealth than letting it go stale in a tax haven, why not tax it and put it to better use?
    22
  28. Rishi's idea of an ordinary worker is really quite different to ours, isn't it!
    20
  29. Could we be looking at a fourth PM in 12 months?
    20
  30. They aren't perfect, but there can be no doubt that Labour are better than the Tories!
    19
  31. What's happened to free market competition? There must be hundreds of people out there who could do a better job than these scumbags, for half the pay!
    18
  32.  @NoName-ql1wk  It doesn't happen though! As long as there is profit to be made, business will happen. Companies won't choose "no income" over "some income"
    17
  33. I saw someone having a tantrum because they might have to actually contribute some tax
    17
  34. We all know there's a union busting handbook Time to start working on the union-buster-busting handbook 😁
    17
  35. Prison orange would be better still!
    16
  36.  @clivecosta-correa2102  something something vaccines Jeremy Corbyn...
    16
  37.  @evolassunglasses4673  policies like "doing promo shoots with fishermen when it's useful for a campaign, and then abandoning them when they're no longer useful"?
    16
  38. How many £5 coffees do they think people drink in one day? 😳
    16
  39. One idea that I found intriguing is extending right to buy to private rents If you've paid rent on a place for the required time, you have the same right to buy at a diacount as council tenants do
    16
  40. ...and private yacht
    15
  41. If a sitcom had a politician more bothered by tofu than by violent crime, it would be rejected as too silly to be credible
    15
  42. You mean "needing a bank account at Coutts" isn't a working class concern? Colour me deeply shocked!
    15
  43.  @Christinebanks11  and they happen the most on badly maintained lines. This isn't rocket science!
    15
  44.  @WhatIsBacon  we are in the very odd position of the Labour Party understanding free market economics better than the Tories. These are interesting, crazy times...
    15
  45. Sunak is trying to blame Starmer for Tory rebels rebelling 🤣
    15
  46. ​ @pastlesandfish it's very right-wing - "the rules are unfair unless I win"
    15
  47. Yep. He understands lending money, but doesn't have a clue about manufacturing, agriculture, trade and all the other things that make a functioning economy Other things, like people 🙄
    15
  48. The occasional one is known to resign...
    14
  49. "Upper middle class spoiled brat, doesn't understand economics" It's almost like he was looking in a mirror...
    14
  50.  @NoName-ql1wk  poor infrastructure and training is a bigger barrier though! We can't improve infrastructure and training without funds, and they have to come from taxes
