Not happy with Sunak during Covid. “Everything he did within COVID was wrong. He paid people for furlough which was all or nothing. He gave them too much in the wrong way." No expansion on how he should have given people less. No recognition that furlough had to be developed from a standing start and implemented within a month. Of all the things to go after Sunak with, furlough isn't one of them. This boy has absolutely zero principles that align with a left of centre party. Fortunately, he doesn't need any to fit into the Labour party like a glove. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does it say about how little his company values workers that they are so driven by profit and greed that despite being aware this would be embarrassing for Anas that they did it anyway.

I dont think it will, hes not really promising any real change, things will remain shite, despite the easy win of changing for the better he’s clinging on to mediocracy, the Kodos of UK politics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes you wonder what they would do if they got an endorsement from the likes of Bernie Sanders. Possibly a thank you but no thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I lived in a marginal seat in England I’d almost definitely vote Labour because it’s the least worst option. Voters in Scotland and Wales have a credible alternative. I'd be looking at independents. However, my first vote was for a constituency in England, with the options of CON, LAB, and LIB DEM. I see REFUK has been added to the list in the decades since. Cock 'n' Balls it would be, then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, the Tories in the area vote labour to ensure no SNP MP gets in, despite my best efforts. Murray is the kunts kunt. Watch out. That’s the next Secretary of State for Scotland you’re talking about! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted Saturday at 13:58 Share Posted Saturday at 13:58 This "worst ever exchange" seems to be a potential Labour voter asking fairly basic policy questions that a seemingly experienced activist knew were essentially unanswerable. From anecdotes like this, more switched on Labour people surely know they are heading to a difficult spot in the longer term. They are either going to come up very short on the central 'change' theme of the campaign, or they will have to be much less conservative on tax and spend compared to how Starmer and Reeves have positioned them. Either way, they are almost certain to end up pissing off parts of what looks like a broad but quite shallow coalition of voters. Then again, there might not be a functioning Opposition for the next five years, so maybe they are gambling on getting away with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
