Labour isn't working - Thread 9

TheNuthatch · 16/09/2025 17:55

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

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

Shouldn't that be rotting on the sofa and scrolling on MN? 😙

Whoops yes 😬

I am also looking at the dire state of the kitchen floor and thinking "I really should mop that". However I've been thinking that for 3 hours and not done anything about it

upseedaisee · 20/09/2025 10:45

In the last few posts, we have sorted out the spending policy for the country. If we can see it, why can't they?? Agggghhhhhhhh!!
Makes you want to weep.

The Guardian appears to be really pissed off with this government, doesn't it? I can't recall who mentioned it the other day, but if the left wing press is turning, it shows how badly Labour is performing. We're fucking doomed.

3 hours? I'm on about 3 days considering the same issue. 😬🤣

TheNuthatch · 20/09/2025 10:51

Ladies, get yourselves a robot Keir. He mops too 😉😂.

I need a small lottery win to get that Dyson robot….staring at various boring chores here. Half a bottle of red last night isn’t helping motivate
me, nor two coffees…

twistyizzy · 20/09/2025 11:04

I have mopped half of the kitchen 💪 however have had to lie down in order to recover.

twistyizzy · 20/09/2025 11:04

We should have a "what boring chores are you avoiding doing today" thread

I'd be a regular on that thread.
Well done with your half a clean floor 👏. Its more than I've done today.

OP posts:
upseedaisee · 20/09/2025 11:28

I'm also looking at the kitchen floor. Pikelets for breakfast and 3 coffees are still not enough motivation to actually stop looking and get doing. Ahh it'll still be there tomorrow🤣🤣🤣

I'm actually being productive! 😱

I walked the mutt first, and I've made banana bread (well, it's in the oven) and I'm currently making lemon curd (both for my parents).

I'll clean the kitchen once done.

One job I can't put off any longer is cleaning the Cat's litter tray. He's sitting there giving me accusatory looks and threatening to report me to somone.🤣🤣🤣
Gloves on, I'm going in!
