Corbyn announces Your Party

I meant which political party gave us Brexit...... the main reason the super wealthy have supposedly left the UK... though there are no figures on whether they still pay UK taxes or not.

Oh and an Exodus is not 10,000 out of 2.8million... it's a very small percentage but of course using words like Exodus portrays a doom and gloom situation.

Care to name the taxes you said Labour put onto the backs of middle income earners??

Are these the books you are talking about or something else?

That’s my point …

that link is from Henley Global…. And

Money Week

In retrospect considering who we have had leading UK since 2019…

Boris, Truss, Sunak, Starmer …. I mean…

Also, Corbyn wanted to do something that would have been incredible…

open up the City of London. Open up its books. Take away the remembrancer role…

since the UK civil war, the City of London has not changed - it is the only UK borough that doesn’t have to open its accounts, it’s a corporation not a local authority and it’s residents can’t vote. It has a remembrancer who can go into House of Commons and report back to the City of London in the policies in development, for the benefit of the city of London. When we know that London houses over 25% of UK economy and that the City of London is at least a third of this..breaking the 500 year secrecy that the City is shrouded I. would have massive benefit for fairer distribution and transparency of uk wealth. Just this one thing could have been pretty transformative but no. Sigh.

How do you think YourParty would be able to effect change?

A scroll of threads on MN shows people are fed up of the education system, wait times at A&E, unable to get GP or dental appointments.

It is upsetting to see these same people so incapable of supporting any party that would genuinely help them.

Well, you are evidently not a fan of capitalism, and you appear to believe in egalitarianism….

Don’t know why they don’t name it The Islamic Communist Party.

Depends which source you read:

For what reason?

Having said all that, people have a right to vote for who they wish and if a new political party offers an alternative that people want then they should go for it.

I actually think welfare needs to be cut. However I was pretty appalled by the lack of thought that went into Labours proposals.

However it’s not possible to have a blank cheque for everything, thats just reality.

Interesting on tax.. I’d look at corporation tax, tax of Uber wealthy.. (£10m+). As much as media are pushing a story of all the billionaires leaving Uk.. when see the stats - it’s not true. Plus, guranteed that if a billionaire says they are leaving due to increased tax rise… I mean… we’re they even paying ANY tax in first place…

have a look at Gary’s Economics - you tube

Were the British public not overwhelmingly in favour of Corbynite policies? Nobody has even said that Jeremy himself will lead the new party. I’m guessing that’s another decision for its members.

So pay more tax then, HMRC already have the voluntary donation option.
All these people bleat on about being happy to pay more tax and wring their hands yet I've never met one who opts in to pay more via that scheme!

People from all points on the political spectrum voted for Brexit.
I personally voted Remain.

I am not a lawyer or politician, so don’t have the answers to your questions. I am a human being who can see things are unjust and I recognise there needs to be a change.
I am probably want you refer to as a middle earner and I am happy to pay tax for a fairer society that means millions of children are not living in deep poverty , or any kind of of poverty, and everyone has access to a good education, good housing, good healthcare etc.

There seems to be only two parties atm failing awfully:

labour
conservatives

• lib dems are too “non” to matter
• greens - have good values + policies + are growing in vote share in traditionally left areas
• reform - taking the Tory and Labour vote and the popularity of their policies shows a lot about values of some of our population … sadly - find this party very very worrying

is it not time for proportional representation.. even with the madness of reform…

Rubbish, middle income earners, those on around 60kp.a, are paying no more tax now than they were under the Tories.

Very few of these will be able to afford private school either or be employing people.

Or can you name the taxes Labour have targeted for Middle Income earners....

As a leader banker said recently "Brexit is the main cause of bankers and hence hi earners leaving the UK..."

...and who gave us that??

“OK, so we have already demonstrated that we are incapable of producing a proper launch event for our new party with professional branding, media, socials etc, in fact we haven’t even got a name for it, or a leader, but we are asking you to vote for us to run the country.”

What can possibly go wrong with this new party? 🙄

Is hyperbole your noun du jour?

Otherwise, do try to look on the bright side - the rain is good for ones garden.

Chin up! Many of us are looking forward to watching the socialists eat themselves.

Have you considered relocating?

To, say, Pyongyang?

Brand and name… this will come and he is asking for people to create the name - it’s called co design. its a good signal of what is to come - very democratic, participatory politics.

Personally I think Corbyn is a guy with great ethics and values and is a true public servant. He listens - remember also in the days after Grenfell he went in and out his arms around people, and they listened to him. May didn’t even turn up.

I doubt his party would be voted into government as so many of UK are centrist // right leaning /: right wing. But his party will help move labour I hope back to its true values.

if only he had been voted in in 2019, the disaster of covid, the corruption, would have at very least been lessened…
