[Nuthatch26]

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.

Instant black hole creation there!

Oh not like his father then

Good point, he is a populist.

Apologies if already posted, I must have missed it, but this is well worth a read on the events in Belfast:

I 100% agree with one of the comments:

"What you wrote applies to most indigenous working class communities across Europe."

Thats a fantastic read, thank you for sharing.

I'm sure Hilary Benn rocking up, spouting bollocks was really helpful.

Oh! John Healey has resigned.

Yes. Good for him!

Big news!

Just get Kemi in fgs, with Rishi

Mahmood could even cross the floor if so inclined. Honestly it’s an absolute shitshow.

🍿 🍿 🍿 🤣🤣

I will laugh until my sides split if the cabinet all abandon Bollard. He deserves it, as do his super fans.

Oh gosh so would I

Healey obviously isn't prepared to prop up this utter fucking disaster that is the defence investment plan. Good on him for telling the worst prime minister we've ever had to shove it.

John Healey was a major Starmer yes man with Steve Reed wasn’t he

Fascinating. Bollard is sinking.

Agree

On the subject of the defence plan, today’s Matt was brilliant.

AFAIK, he doesn't get on particularly well with Burnham, so who knows.
Maybe he fancies a go himself?

I was going to post that but didn’t quite get the impetus, it’s great

Haha, yes just found it 😄

At least no one can accuse them of rushing it through.

Starmer offered 0.08% defence increase by 2030? Wtf?

Kemi is going to roast Starmer at PMQs. He’s probably hoping Burnham takes over by now, if he had any self awareness so maybe not.

All that bollocks at the dispatch box of raising defence spending to 3% just yesterday, Healy must have been ready to thump him.

Actually, here's Healy's death stare while Starmer was defending his foot dragging on the dip yesterday.

Crucifying with a Major saying he doesn’t like to criticise politicians or say it’s a disaster but Starmer is out of his depth.

Ouch
