@Miss_Snuffy Interesting you listened to that quote and instantly assumed it's about the right wing.
Doesn't that just say it all about how you're a disgraced has-been?
Telling children that it's okay if the right wing lie to them, as long as it's not the left - disgraceful.
Lady in green says that manifestos should be legally binding and if political parties break them, there should be consequences, be charged with something #BBCQT
Think we can all agree, if we’re being honest, that while it’s true Labour are in a massive bind - partly of their own making - a Reform government would be spectacularly worse for Britain.
@RebeccaCait04 @redgierob Do you have ANYTHING apart from "yes they haven't done it yet, but it's only been a year and a half"?
Because that's not contracting the statement that they are not on track to meet their pledge. That's just an excuse. They had 14 years in opposition to plan and prepare.
@RebeccaCait04 @redgierob When would you have us judge them then?
When they've failed to meet everything they're on track to fail in the next two years, will you be saying "it's only been 30 months?"
@RebeccaCait04 @redgierob No, they specifically set a pledge they are failing to be on target for. That is a lie.
The waiting lists are not reducing or growing. They're moving in line with average seasonal pressures. This isn't a pro nor a con to Labour. This is "business as usual - no change."
@RebeccaCait04 @redgierob They haven't capitalised the national wealth fund, and have only delivered Breakfast Clubs, cutting the non-dom loophole and are passing the employment rights bill and renters rights bill through parliament.
It's a mixed to poor message on facts at best.
@RebeccaCait04 @redgierob 4) Whilst money for dentists is sat with local ICBs, the Gov has done nothing to make more NHS dentists or increase appointments.
5) Hospital waiting lists have risen, sitting at 7.4m. there is controversy over Labour removing people from lists without telling them.
@narindertweets You can say she's bad at her job and disagree with her politics and decisions without pointing out her hair, color, clothing or gender... It's really ugly how fast people want to get personal.
@ChristianJMay But what you missed is that in 2024 it was a one off, she'll never ever need to do it again. Etc.
One gets really tired of lies from Labour, lies from Tories, lies from Reform... Remember when honesty in politics wasn't a nice extra but a necessity for the job?
@BellaWallerstei Your point - that work doesn't pay - is valid and fair. People should WANT to work because it should pay well, be rewarding and support them, no matter what challenges they have.
Blaming lifelines for the disabled and sick is not that.
See how they're two separate things?
@PolitlcsUK Brings me no pleasure to say this looks like the death throws of Labour already.
If she raises taxes and scraps the manifesto or promises, she's a dead woman walking and the party faces a hill they probably won't get out of.
@Peston I wouldn't have an issue with tax rises if we were getting something for it.
The tax rises last year (that she promised was once in a generation and would never be repeated) appear to have delivered absolutely nothing for the British public apart from breakfast clubs.
@RebeccaCait04 @redgierob ...it's sad you actually believe all of that. It really is.
Being impartial and holding all political parties to equal account and equal responsibility; being critical of all of them for lies, manipulation of statistics, and broken promises - it really opens your eyes.
@PolitlcsUK Huge tax rises last year, and all they have to show for it is bloody breakfast clubs.
Public services are buckling reporting record low funding to maintain services, the framework of society is creaking, and the only 'change' she did after a giant tax grab was breakfast clubs.
