@kittysull1 Spare us the co-ordinated sanctimonious faux outrage.
How about calling your opponents “scum“ or suggesting they be “lynched“ or are ” literally worse than Nazis ?”
@afneil All rather reminiscent of Tony Benn in the 70s ”backing winners“ ie pumping money into chosen private companies which invariably failed some short time after
@BurnsideWasTosh@DouglasCarswell The chances of the IMF bailing us out now is negligible. Debt now pushing 3 trillion pounds and at 93.8% GDP.
We only borrowed some 3 billion back in 1976 and even then paid half of it back without using it
@TrisOsborneMP@Conservatives You do realise that unemployment rose following Browns recession from 2008 and then fell consistently all through the coalition and following Tory government.
@afneil Post 2008 crash there was hardly a public clamour to increase public spending. Cannot remember Starmer, let alone Milliband or Magic Grandpa, demanding the Tories increase defence spending as a priority
@Alexarmstrong Bit harsh mate, after all the PM has just sorted the Middle East and John Healey has just presided over the greatest naval victory since Trafalgar.
