Labour isn't Working - Thread 41

[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.

And by Labour after they won the election but lost the governing.

Tbf Starmer has gone sooner.

They’re not the most recent proof that leaders come and go. That was provided by another party.

I can pass comment on whatever I choose thanks

That is pretty much the idea of an open forum after all

Totally get you are probably used to the leftie echo chamber where everyone has to behave in a certain way or get cancelled. However the rest of mumsnet is far more free and easy. We also don't call people names like we are in the playground, you may want to think on that one judging by some of your posts.

A pp had said that Kemi had superior intellect and was toying with the Opposition. Her intellect wasn't on display there. At least get a summary of what the system might do or get someone who does know. If she isn't sure how it works/is deployed then how can she know what it will cost?

There’s a thread for Labour / Burnham btw. This one is for those who don’t like this Labour gov.

Of course you can but you make yourself look quite ridiculous when you admit you haven't even looked at the clip!! PS I am in no leftie echo chambers. The notion is hilarious.

Next time I go to the pub, I might sit down at a random table of strangers and start shouting my opinion at them loudly and rudely. Since that's the done thing now.

Good to see at least one leader thinking about defence. I like the iron dome idea.

Yep you’d think there’d be more on Labour delaying defence spending again.

"Roya News | Police detain protesters at pro-Palestine rally in Berlin" https://en.royanews.tv/news/74599/Police-detain-protesters-at-pro-Palestine-rally-in-Berlin

Berlin today

Well quite!

I like it too. The war in Ukraine has totally changed the landscape of what our defences need to be capable of.

Great to see Badenoch's thought leadership. She regularly comes up with fresh ideas before the other parties have even understood the problem that needs to be solved.

Britannias Shield. Iron Dome is something else and we can't afford it

Why can’t we afford it?

So do you agree with this thread that Labour’s not working and you don’t like that party, that’s why you’re on it?

Why are you on this thread?

It costs a lot. See Israel and the USA

Yes good idea. Don't forget to use a different name to your usual, just to be extra cowardly.

"Athens police announce 24-hour gathering ban for Rubio visit | eKathimerini.com" https://www.ekathimerini.com/news/1317251/athens-police-announce-24-hour-gathering-ban-for-rubio-visit/

Interesting another all encompassing ban.

Not sure your logic that a politician or potentially leader needs to know how are system workers in order to buy it for a country or a country to use it. That is why they use experts. Also maybe she should have got someone else to speak about it, however I can imagine they wanted to speak to her not some random.

Also despite her often tongued moments , I can think of a few times she has had these moments. She is a rather clever accomplished woman that does know how to talk too and for the general public. After Boris, Starmer and now Burnham I do find that refreshing.

Feel free to disagree with me but don't suggest I should shut up

No, we can’t afford it now because social security is more important than national security.

Extra for defence is a good idea. Labour are the party of welfare so it’s hard for them to switch.

Why do you talk like you have just come out of one and don't understand who regular people communicate then?

It definitely isn't me that is being ridiculous on this thread

Yes true. Labour don't give a fuck about defence or our servicemen and women.
