If you advocate for something when not in power, and then refuse to implement it when you ARE in power, you should just be branded fundamentally dishonest and nobody should vote for you ever again.
Yet it seems to be a hallmark of our politicians.
Cuba is a Socialist country and one of the poorest in the world suffering under a 60+ year economic blockade by the richest country in the world.
Guess which one has better healthcare, life expectancy, literacy, lower infant mortality and every type of crime.
It ain't the USA.
This bunch of Labour mediocrities are the most mendacious & stupid in recent memory - & the bar is very low. They believe people will buy their bullshit: participate actively in a genocide & then claim to be friends of the Palestinians for a photo op
Just awful to see senior Labour politicians, whose government has helped arm Israel's genocide in Gaza, now expressing sympathy for the victims they played their part in creating.
This is gaslighting.
@premnsikka Purnell proposed charging interest on crisis loans to the unemployed and pensioners made by the Department for Work and Pensions, which were interest-free, at a rate of up to 26.8% per annum.

Meet James Purnell. Andy Burnham's chief of staff.
He supported Iraq invasion; ex chair of Labour Friends of Israel; said that Winter Fuel Allowance and free bus passes should not be sacred; supported PFI, lie-detector tests for benefit claimants.
Next?

As the Prime Minister is exposed yet again for his appalling appointment of Mandelson, we must keep in our minds the victims of grotesque sexual abuse.
It is the victims who must be remembered. It is the victims who must be supported. And it is the victims who deserve justice.
Just pointing out that I broke the story 7 months ago that Mandelson failed vetting from the security services and put it to Downing Street...so the idea that Downing Street only found out on Tuesday is complete nonsense.

If you’re the kind of fan who boos at a break to allow players to break their fast during Ramadan, you need to evolve & join the rest of us in 2026. Proper degenerate type of behaviour.
Football is for everyone.
Worst thing about today? The stamp, the hand ball, the dives… nope. The booing. I fucking love leeds united and I hated that today. Grown men booing people due to their religion? For what. We are better than that!
Reminder to the moronic members of our fan base (often the 'charity starts at home' brigade) that one of the reasons that Muslims fast is to show empathy to those who are in poverty & go hungry regularly. They donate food & money to those in need (millions of pounds per year).
If you booed the fasting break due to disliking Muslims , then please unfollow me. England can be a beautiful country when its made of variety and welcomes all peoples and players with all beliefs
how lucky we are to sit in the comfort of our own homes, able to freely live our lives, eat proper meals, pursue our hobbies while across the world, on the same planet we share, innocent people, families and children just like ours are forced to live in constant fear of death…
Emma Reynolds MP says with a dead straight face,
'I knew Peter Mandelson for years and had no idea about his relationship with Jeffery Epstein'
Well Emma, you are clearly too stupid to be an MP.
🙄🤦
