Labour isn't working - Thread 6

[TheNuthatch]

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.

😆 I can think of a few of them in Labour

What was her last property grift? There was something.

HAHAHA.

The last things you would see is her two hands clutching a vape and a bucket of cheap plonk….

Has anyone seen this clip where Reeves laughs in the face of a child when they say she puts taxes up. Proper belly laugh from her:

Totally.

I used to walk past one near me, and think ‘NO!’

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Grufter Ange rough as anything
Me and Em shares must of plummeted like a stone

Sorry that's hilarious. In her dry robe 🤣

She may be using the standard wording in the Financial Order for a divorce which says you may not reveal to terms to third parties (of course everyone does tho’!)

Shit, that’s mad.

The kid should have turned on the waterworks….

They think it's one big massive joke 😡

😂

Yes there was. My memory is a little rusty, happy to be corrected if anything I write is off. She owned an ex social home which she bought through right to buy. Obviously made a big profit on it. She and her then husband also owned a house together (which was nearby).
When she decided to sell her ex social home, she pretended that it was her main residence to avoid tax. It was quite obvious that she was not living there as her husband and children were living in her other home.

Presumably the more husbands/partners one has, the more opportunity for property monkey business.

Again, gotta hand it to her.

Best one of the day: Farage has come out in support of Raynor 🤣🤣🤣 she must be livid

Oh this has made my day 🤣🤣

From this article: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/sep/01/angela-rayners-hove-flat-five-questions-for-the-deputy-pm

He says "That being said, Rayner did receive backing from an unexpected quarter last week, when the Reform UK leader insisted the row was confected. “This whole sort of hair-shirt approach – most of the press want politicians in sackcloth and ashes, would like all of us to be vegan and give up drinking,” said Nigel Farage. “Well, it’s not happening here.”

Presumably the distinction being - Farage is an unabashed capitalist who doesn’t pretend otherwise.

Rayner and co are meanwhile about to stuff massive tax rises down our throats whilst expanding their property portfolios etc.

Yes but I think it's hilarious that the man who lives rent free in her head has supported her and in The Grauniad 🤣🤣

Love it 😀
She is the queen of grift. All hale.
She should consider a career in wealth management when Labour have finished with her. She'd make a cracking IFA.

Neil Woodford style…

Yes 🤣🤣

Angela Rayner is the Manchester version of Meghan Markle.

Nailed it

Back to immigration and “one in one out” and in case anyone was wondering how it was all going, I see tonight that some figures have been released. 3,567 migrants have arrived in small boats since the inception of the deal. The number sent back to date is 0.

As if Reeves the Bank of England economist wasn’t enough, it seems yet another rewrite of history. Allegedly Badenoch has claimed a number of times that at sixteen she had an offer to study Medicine at Stanford. Except Stanford don’t concur! You couldn’t make it up. But they seemingly can 🙈
