Comments by "Greg Greg" (@SlowhandGreg) on "Andrew Marr: Starmer determined' to stick to anti-immigration and pro-Brexit politics | LBC" video.
I don't think he's anti immigration but there are some rather bad stats 2010 - 2019 Real wage went down by -3% Austerity put large cuts to services At the same time we had 7% in population growth that's despite having a low birth rate of 1.6 and emigration of 40,000 pa needing +400,000 to stand still. To Joe Blogs he's seen himself get poorer at the same time as services where squeezed and a huge increase in foreign labour with zero economic benefit with a toxic right wing media salting the earth. In fact we've had a decade of stagnation you'd have thought with that much growth in the employment base our economy should have been flying so why wasn't it? I'm all for FOM but the numbers needed to swing elections are narrow and Joe Blogs is probably uneducated older and male. I will as usual vote tactically for the least worst option with my only hope of unseating the Tory in my constituency is voting Lib-Dem Anyway I really like Labour's Energy and Green policy just what the North needs as well as an elected HOL and an Agri agreement to sole the NI issue I'm glad he fetched it up made me go look at the data and try work out how the Tories had knackered the economy so completely.
