  1. There's a good interview with economist Torsten Bell on PoliticsJoe which goes through the hard choices facing any new administration and labelling the Autumn statement as economic fiction Even small changes can have big consequences Hunt's budget is shrinking public service budgets post April to a level that would see them completely collapse to pay for the tax cuts. We will be going into the election poorer than we were in 2019 and the OBR don't expect wages to recover to pre 2008 levels till 2028

  4. Its not a Labour think Tank quote Its stated aim is to improve the standard of living of low-to-middle income families. Check out the Joseph Rowntree Foundation Analysis. The Right wing is bought and paid for by lobbyists such as the IEA and TaxPayers Alliance and our media is owned by Billionaire interests. @0w784g

  5. Labour want to spend 28 billion on Green Policies and here's why Cost of Energy in 2021 to UK Consumers (Renewables where the cheapest source of electric at this point) was 30 billion Cost of Energy in 2023 to UK Consumers will be 170 Billion (Due to Gas price Fluctuations and the energy market being tied to GAS (40%) If you invest 28 billion a year into renewable energy and grid expansion it will OnShore energy jobs and reduce the 170 billion eventually down to 30 Billion + inflation @nazb1982

  6. Corbyn was a left wing populist espousing Fantasy Economics his fate would have been the same as Lettuce Liz but more bloody making the Labour Party unelectable for decades. Populism doesn't work whatever side of the political spectrum it comes from

  8. We have a huge problem with the Black Economy a lot of so called asylum seekers who are economic migrants disappear into it, I'm all for clearing the Asylum backlog but what about the cash only car washes and other businesses which creates criminal gangs and modern slavery.

  9. top 3 issues for voters are Cost of Living Crisis, Energy Crisis & NHS Your out of touch if you think the voting Pubic have more than a passing interest in a conflict that has been ongoing for decades HS2 is dead Sunak has salted the earth, you'd need a plan that doesn't cost the earth and runs at the least expensive way possible There's no money to buy water and energy and we own rail its franchised out if you wasted time doing it you'd never get the net zero push we need and it would be reprivatised by the Tories in seconds
