  4.  @imbonkers3629  The Tories had no mandate to leave the single market and remove FOM but they did it anyway

  5. The Nordic states have strict Labour laws banning such things as zero hour also offshoring profits in Norways case and a centre left managed economy with well funded services + a border with Russia.

  8.  @normankennith7919  Living somewhere and claiming residency for tax purposes with HMRC are 2 different things, Dowden understood that with his jibe at DPMQ's the other week. The story is worse than Currygate

  10. If you want the Capitalist ladder to work you need a robust Social floor What we've seen over the last 14 years is a degrading of that social floor to the point people cannot get on the ladder hence total economic stagnation If you want a booming economy invest in the domestic workforce, that includes disability benefits to housing to sick pay to Healthcare etc

  11. There guilty as charged send them to the tower or even Ms Patel's dungeon quote Amid all the urgent material problems facing the country, why this relentless, almost pathological, search for wedge issues and cultural division points? One must assume the Tory party believes this is helping them. But examine the strategy, and there is little to suggest that this is true. The first thing to say about a government of a modern western nation setting out to “change its culture” is that this simply cannot be done. We are just too individualistic

  12. The majority of Conservatives are on the Centre Right and are aghast at the continuous march to the right, the disintegration of the Blue wall is down to a Brex1t they never voted for nor wanted and the fall out from a hard brexit, economic incompetence plus RAAC and sewage in the river

  13. that's way to logical and practical how are they going to whip up enough bile and hate if they deal with the problem?

  14. Farage was the head of a populist fascist party, whatever your views on the EU his message was bile and lies and it's the remnants of this toxic messaging wee going to have to deal with for decades. When he got his Brexit party to turn thier backs on the EU parliment in the same way that Social Democrats did in Germany pre war disgusted me to the bone

  15. why they wouldn't do any better, the boats didn't exist before 2010 its a Conservative thing same as mass migration

  16. Yea I mean who wants lower energy bills and less migration let's stick with the bunch of Sunak's noo hopers Mug

  17. If you want lower immigration taxes have to 4ise and investment needs to be made in social and physical infrastructure Reform agenda is usual BS

  18. There not a proper party just a millionaire / billionaire pressure group

  19. All 14 years of it

  20. In what way? Last time they were in power the economy grew and average wages rose by +20%
    4
  21. We borrowed 130 billion last year debt is still increasing and taxes overall will rise in the next budget with fiscal drag, 20% level should be 14500not 12250

  22. ​ @YorickReturns private healthcare system would increase taxes, there are millions of people who don't have enough income to afford a plan Pensioners for one kids for another

  23. She is clueless on the topic we are starting to see the effects of mass storage on grid networks saving billions to consumers yet you want to stay as we are?

  24. Reform have even less of a plan than Sunak.

  25. I'm already getting cheap energy because of it you need to stop listening to muppets like these
    4
  26. you voted for brexit which is the same thing you were warned that it would increase migration not decrease it and labled it project fear who needs experts Karma And every economist around has said net zero will reduce energy costs quote adopting net zero technologies will save ~£12-15bn a year because they have lower operating costs – an important factor that is missing from other analyses.

  27. You need to get out more and have a wider circle of friends by the sound of it
    4
  28. Your being conned this affects the Dysons and Clarksons of this world not family run farms

  29. Why will it be more of the same? They have different policies

  30.  @hklovejoy  My son has a boatload of qualifications and 4 years experience he's on +50p above minimum. I'm sick to the back teeth of Tory Austerity + trickle down which is driving a low wage economy. 14 years on Sunak and Hunt telling people not to have pay rises because its inflationary while average wages are -7% lower than in 2010. By the way migration is symptom of those policies not the cause. Wouldn't surprise me if the Tories didn't try outsource Defence they've done it to everything else.

  31. I listened to a really interesting discussion on this the other week The guest on the podcast can't remember which one said for the Capitalist Ladder to work you need a robust social floor, we have eroded that floor so much that people can no longer get on that ladder and it is a big contributor to our current economic stagnation.

  32. Im happy with that stick with Wishy Washy No more cons Marvellous

  33. We've been in recession 7 quarter straight if you look at GDP per capita, headline GDP is boosted by 1.25 million Visa's Tax has gone up and tax base has risen from 33% to 37% Were officially poorer than in 2006
    4
  34. HMRC have cleared it
    4
  35. why is that then a party that pursues economic policy that will benefit billionaires in the same way that the current government does will somehow be popular after Labour start fixing our essential services.

  36. She supports this why are you even giving her an ounce of praise
    4
  37. Tory + just what we don't need, not had enough of Thatcherism yet
    4
  38. Sunak is persuing Thatcher style policie don't you get the impression it's a faiiure of those policies rather than the man?
    4
  39. We've been in recession for 2 years with a continous fall in GDP per Capita. The headline rate is propped up by around 2 million visas being doled out over the last 2 years.

  40. abandoning net zero is a political death sentence 1 renewable energy is cheaper and has been since 2019 2 food prices will skyrocket the worse it gets there are already shortages from unexpected winter cold snaps damaging harvests to drought to fungal infections due to persistent rain when it should be dry and warm
    4
  41. GDP per Capita has been falling 7 quarters straight and headline GDP of 2 negative 2 quarters is propped up by 1.25 million visas

  42. Why's that then? I'd give the right wing msm a miss if I were you There are a number of long form interviews with him on YouTube give them a listen
    4
  43. How could they do things worse? this is the worst period of economic stagnation and lowering living standards since the Napoleonic wars And in the last 2 years living standards have fallen by 4.2% with lowering GDP per capita as well as a 2 year rate of of 20% inflation

  44. excellent news centre left party in power for 2 decades to reshape and rejuvenate the country

  45. Parliment doesn't and never has represented the people, in a multi party system with FFP your into minority rule. The only way this works is that people believe the government of the day are governing in the best interests of all. The current bunch can hardly govern never mind in the interests of the entire UK, it's that bad that unless there's a radical change the breakup of the UK is inevitable with an independent Scotland and NI uniting with Ireland. The way candidates are selected needs changing so there's a better Proportional element that way all sides will have to work together the house of Lords is a joke the last list of honours was embarrassing

  46. It's Conservative policies that are the problem, you can't fix anything when your world view is at odds with reality Hence things will just keep getting worse

  47. They will ask relevant questions in PMQ's like why is there still sewage in the rivers and why haven't you addressed social care
