Does anyone still support this Labour government?

[PutTheCakeDOWN]

I know NO ONE in real life who still sticks up for them (apart from my mother, and she would support Labour even if KS owned up to creating Covid). Apart from that, all quiet on the western front.

I haven’t seen any support on here, or SM for weeks now.

Is it my algorithm bubble, or are people genuinely disappointed with them? I don’t think it can be the algorithms though, as until a few weeks ago there were still words of support popping up.

For full disclosure I think this government is a total shitshow intent on dismantling British culture, and taxing the private sector to death in order to pay for the public sector. With no long term plan once the private sector is squeezed totally dry. I am BEYOND disappointed with them.

@beigeybeige and yet that's exactly why many voted us out of a bloated and yet shadowy government hundreds of miles away.

Where billions goes missing in black holes and as tony benn said whose got the power and how do we get rid of them .

The Rwanda scheme was never fully implemented as Starmer and his human rights cronies held in up at every stage with legal loopholes!

They'll soon run out of everyone's money.

Oh I see. You're labouring under a misapprehension which is why you keep referring back to job creation. If you care to re-read my original post, you'll see I said "Most of her views".

In what way?

Ok so not that one then?

I asked which one did you mean so you could specify. It’s a bit vague and meaningless.

Christ.

Robbing the private sector to pay for the unproductive public sector for one.

Hilarious

Job creation isn’t a policy. It’s a policy goal. How you try to achieve it will vary depending on where you stand on the political spectrum.
I’d say just banging on about job creation with no clear plan, or a plan so simple it’s patently obviously fatuous, is populist - it suggests there’s an easy solution to the complex problem of growth. Having a policy for job creation (whether a particular person agrees with it or not, whether it’s successful or not) isn’t populist.

Absolutely right. Nigel Farage also always answers questions that are posed to him unlike other politicians. He is straight talking, and I think, a brave politician

😂😂😂😂😂

People have been polled on their opinion of the Rwanda plan? Over 100 t8nes? Recently?
I doubt it.

They are barely to the left of centre. Corbyn is much further left, but even then would be an unremarkable social democratic in much of Northern Europe/Scandinavia.

If you follow the context you’ll see the pp said @HermioneWeasleylist was populist. On asking they couldn’t say which on the list actually was so I picked one which now turns out doesn’t meet the criteria for populist after all.

It doesn’t make sense after you have added to it.

Were you aware of the details? It was strictly number limited and allowed for an equal number of more vulnerable (and therefore more expensive to support and less likely to be able to fund themselves) refugees from Rwanda to come here. It was also repeatedly judged illegal and was therefore unlikely to ever have been implemented whoever was in power. And it was horrifically expensive.
I’m constantly stunned anyone thinks it was viable, never mind the answer to a complex problem. It’s another example of populist nonsense.

The court decision wasn’t an issue, it could go ahead.

How’s smash the gangs and one in one out going?

Unproductive? In what way? Sure, education makes no profit but the private sector would struggle if it had to educate all its workers from age 5. Likewise if it had to pay for their lifelong health care.
The public sector isn’t supposed to be profitable. It enables profit though.

I didn’t edit the post. What do you mean ‘added to it’?

edit: I’ve edited this one to show you how it looks when someone edits.

I’m no admirer of Farage. In fact I think he’s a charlatan.

But if you’re going to laugh uproariously at Farage’s willingness to answer questions - fair enough - I think it’s also reasonable to observe how atrociously evasive and frankly dishonest Starmer is with his answers to questions.

I was answering your question.

Added your input of course. Follow back for context, which you’ve missed.

Gangs might take a little while, don’t you think?
The one-in-one out policy has started and will gradually increase as far as I understand it.

I wasn’t answering context. I was answering your question, whoch didn’t need context to be answered.

I think the Labour government are doing a good job. They inherited a shit show. The Tories have been running us into the ground since Thatcher in the 80s. We have Brexited which has not benefited us. They are now building houses (which we desperately need) supporting and promoting the NHS and being a steady handy with the economy. I have no idea why the media is bashing them so much. Except that much of the media is funded by millionaires with right wing bias.

It does to make sense. It was in relation to some posts up thread, specifically @HermioneWeasleylist and what qualified on there as populist. Nothing so far.
