AIBU to think that tonight's victory brings in a new dawn.
A world where there is better benefits system, a world where childcare isn't the constant headache it is now, a world where workers's rights will be respected and expanded,
a world where private schools are no longer charity's, a world where those who can afford it are taxed, a world where asylum seekers are not sent off on a plane but treated with respect, a world where everyone will be housed, a world with more medical staff, a world where SEN children don't have to beg for taxi;s to go to school, a world where diagnosis or those with ND conditions children and adult is made easier, a world where every child has free lunches not just in school but in the holidays to.
A kinder gentler world at long last.

Unfortunately it’ll be a case of the usual excuse of “it’ll take years to come out of the mess we inherited from the last government” so nothing will change

And just where is the money coming from to pay for this Utopia?

A world where the word women is banned

The woman issue is my one concern but that seems to have been addressed in recent days.

It's the Labour Party not fucking Care Bears😅

The private schools which are charities will still be charities. You've misunderstood Labour's policy there. They are proposing to make private schools charge VAT on their fees. Opinions vary on what the effect of that will be.

I don't think I am deluded. This is a landslide victory. it;s what we wanted and there is nothing to stop it.

Yes sorry but I think this will stay a dream, for the next few years at least. I voted labour, I do think there will be improvements under labour, but we are in a very big hole and we just can’t afford the equipment to get out of it. So for now it’ll be fiddling round the edges with restructuring, until hopefully we reach a stronger economic position when more money can be spent.

I hope so! But it is a dream at the moment. Let's just pray for now. 🙏

I think you're living in your own 'world'.

Getting far too carried away about a change of government.

Unless Keir Starmer has recruited Mary Poppins as his deputy?

Poppypops76 · 04/07/2024 23:34

Yes you are completely deluded. Sorry.
