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

Bracing for the budget 😬

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

My take? When given the option between conspiracy or cock up - I’ll go with cock up most of the time.

The Downing Street machine is behaving like they’re still in opposition - or worse, the Student Union.

They’ve not realised they are playing in the big leagues now and that the electorate has no time/stomach for bitchy outbreaks of back-stabbing.

I really think Kemi is starting to enjoy PMQs!

Good on her. So she should

Watching now

EasternStandard · 12/11/2025 12:26

She’s great, just listened to that last question. Starmer gets switched off. He can go swizzle

TheNuthatch · 12/11/2025 12:28

Well done Kemi 👏
Also pleased with the conservative MP who asked about males in women's prisons.

Long time lurker and so glad this thread has been going for a while. Really interesting thread and I was a Labour supporter including and up to new Labour but conservative since. I didn’t vote for Labour this time around either but hoped they would do good but my god what a shit show. I took early retirement and very glad as a higher tax payer with no children as I had saved for my older years so have no inclination to work and pay even more tax.

The problem Starmer has is that he’s as much of a shit as Boris but makes out that he’s virtuous. It’s not that surprising that his employees are turning on him. I wonder whether he is a man who tells stories in which he is the hero.

Honestly? I don't think he has the imagination for it.

"Regimental association at Cameron Barracks 'told to leave'" https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/6890358/cameron-barracks-inverness-regimental-association/

Quietly in the Highlands, veterans are being evicted for asylum seekers.

I'm speechless

FGS.

Deplorable.

Appalling! Again this needs to be raised as s question in PMQ

LupaMoonhowl · 12/11/2025 13:23

And if course no way will it be reported on the BBC.

Where will they go? Just thrown out in the street?

upseedaisee · 12/11/2025 13:32

Ed Davey called for the PM to tell Trump he shouldn't take the BBC to court for £1bn. Why? They blatantly showed him in a bad light and clearly had just one intention in doing to, to infulence the American people. Davey also the BBC impartial and unbiased. I have yet to see them show either, or any remorse. From the stitch up that was Princess Diana's interview, to hounding Cliff Richard and defending one of the most prolific child molesters in modern history, they are anything but impartial and unbiased and just a bloated maggot with the strong scent of corruption.

The veterans don't live there. It is where their Regimental Association is based.

Damnthetorpedoes · 12/11/2025 13:39

Apparently last nights Newsnight was a disaster for Labour.

Will have a look.
