Labour isn't working - Thread 5

A chat thread for those who don't like this Labour government. Labour isn't working!

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

Can’t seem to post links at the moment - IMF has upgraded growth forecast…

but seriously, when did it become the norm to celebrate a growth rate of 1.2 percent? Doesn’t this show the mess that is French (0.6), Japanese (0.7), Italian and German politics?

I’ll be looking out for an analysis but although this is ‘good news’ it really looks like governments across Europe and Japan are failing their populations.

Me too. It's the only emoji suitable for Parsley's posts 😂.
We can always count on Parsley when we need a giggle.

Yes you're right. It's a sad state of affairs isn't it. Trump hasn't finished with his tarrifs either, and we have another Starmer/Reeves budget to survive yet.

I think Trump is impacting EU countries.

After 1 whole year you've 5 threads 🤣 guess you didn't contribute to 70 threads on the shower of shite that preceded them?!

Arrearing50 · 29/07/2025 15:24

Yes @EasternStandard the times article is saying no effects felt from tariffs but how can that be true? I bet the French and German press are saying something different!

That makes no sense! 70 threads in 14 years is exactly the same as 5 in 1 year

A year? It started in April.
Plenty of other threads for Starmer worship if that's your thing. Sorry, Our Dear Leader as you would call him.
