He complains about Armed Forces Veterans Day yet his government cancelled it last summer and the one before, even despite very few covid restrictions at those times.

They’ve also cancelled over £7B in defence spending since coming into power meaning that the armed forces is now smaller than its been in centuries. I think you have to go back to the 1700’s. Further cuts in numbers are still planned also.

The #cheerskier that the Tories have tried to get trending on social media blaming Starmer for the strikes is spectacularly backfiring too

People are running with it and the only thing that Starmer isn’t getting blamed for is the strikes. Stubbed toes, lost keys, the weather etc etc all Starmers fault.

Starting to get some faith back that the British public aren’t as stupid as the Tory party think they are.

Just listening on the radio and apparently the effects of the strike have been dissipated because the country is now used to WFH so it’s not going to be as damaging for the country as Tories are trying to scare everyone into believing that it will be.

WFH to the rescue again.

So you wanted Starmer and now you want the illegitimate love child of Bob Crowe - I don’t think he’d take the pay cut

I was just listening to the radio and some fella who wrote a book called derailed was on and he's aid 50 billion had been taken out of the railways by private companies and investors since privatisation. Scandalous if true.

Gullis says he's been an NASUWT rep in the past but yet a) chose to become a Tory MP and b) apparently has no idea how unions work. Then of course segues into calling Lynch a Marxist waste of space

Why would I hate it?

Lynch has been very good from what I've seen but I don't have to agree with every single word he says.

Not sure what I’ve made up ? I’m suggesting that I think the strikers are more concerned about their pay (which is their right and totally understandable especially at the moment) than about a better rail infrastructure and service for the public and that’s the main reason why they’re striking.

Based on what?
I think it's fare to say this government has scant regard for public safety.

Especially when you consider the billions of public money that’s been spent bailing them out over the years.

Think it was £8B in covid bailouts alone. So the UK taxpayer’s basically bailed out rail companies owned by EU government’s meaning they still made profit. In stark contrast private rail companies in the EU widely made losses. Another case of socialism not being for the plebs.

Johnson and his government have dragged this country into the gutter. What a fucking mess.

Giving Dacre a peerage for dropping a story about his corruption.

They will win Wakefield very easily and that’s enough to show “parties don’t matter eh lads” the fact it’s been a labour seat every single time other than 2019 doesn’t matter of course

Labour should be 15 to 20 points ahead. They could form a government even if they dug out Blair and Brown - Starmer is a disaster

I’m talking about someone standing as an mp and for the leadership of his party. You think he does that without conviction?? He may not be doing a good job but to say he has no conviction is banal. And I’d still take no conviction over the conviction to lie cheat and defraud
