@AngelaRayner While many of us don't support that motion, we still condemn Zionism for the damage it causes. You have party members openly calling themselves Zionists in the knowledge of what it can lead to ๐ก
#AndyBurnham's pension raid is understandable but WRONG.
Pensions pay out a lot more than what is paid in. The average lifetime payment is around ยฃ140,000, the average pay out is about ยฃ200,000.
We need #WealthTaxes and a #landvaluetax
#immigration contributes ยฃ3.3 BILLION to the UK economy every year...NET!
That INCLUDES the costs, such as temporary accommodation for asylum seekers.
Carrying a knife makes you a more likely target for stabbing.
The same applies to #NuclearWeapons@carla_denyer recently took criticism for pointing out this comparison to Lewis Goodall, with predictable sniggering, but no meaningful comeback.... because she's right.
If the Left did politics...like the Right. ๐คฃ
#Immigration is a complex issue (with countless benefits) that the Left take seriously.
#Climatechange is a pretty simple issue (with next to NO benefits) that the Right kick about like an empty coke can.
#AndyBurnham has announced that he will abolish the #TripleLock#pension
Though we don't agree with this approach, there is a significant gap between what is paid in and what is paid out.
Yet another reason for a #WealthTax, changes to #capitalgains tax and a land value tax!
