Labour And The Mini-Budget

[Paigntonian]

Labour Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves says Kwarteng's statement is a repudiation of 12 years of Tory government. Labour should welcome it then, as they have slammed the Tories' economic policies for all of that time.

What about Blackford as PM in a coalition government? \\ - well it's like saying I don't care if it's heads or tails as long as it's not heads. The only party that can possibly get into no 10 other than the Tories is Labour and they haven't won an election in half a century. The Tories supply the PM after the next election, end of. the wager is still on offer if anyone has the cojones to back their own opinion.

I've decided not to waste another morning watching repeats on Answerbank.

You need a new scriptwriter, shouty geezer.

I'll back my own opinion. A hung parliament after the next election. As I've said before, I believe Labour will win back most, if not all, of the Red Wall seats but they need Scotland to be able to get a majority, and that aint gonna happen any time soon.

Blessed are the young, for they shall inherit the national debt.

…..and he’ll be worse than Boris and Mrs Flip-Flop how, exactly?

Tell me how great the Tories have been over the last 3 years especially and how they’ve taken the UK to its current standing in the world?
Our politicians are seen as a joke, our democracy is in tatters, we have no meaningful trade deals, Brexit is a disaster and the pound is at a record low.
So giving bankers uncapped bonuses and looking after the top 1% in the UK is the way to go?
Lol, utterly deluded.

weren’t the tories predicting a market plunge and a collapse in the value of sterling if labour won the last election?

Lo and behold we got it anyway…
