Visiting a Social Enterprise which helps persons with L.D. the So Called Caring Government intend to close, does Remploy come to mind? you shower of Bads.
What Labour did:-
Remploy – a year after the last closure | LabourList labourlist.org/2014/10/remploy-a-year-after-the-last-closure/ 31 Oct 2014 ... A year ago today the last Remploy factory officially shut its doors. ... No mention that the Labour government closed 29 Remploy factories
What this Government had done to Remploy is nothing short of completely disgusting, and they deserve to lose the forthcoming Election for this reason alone.
Young, I real world, & the real world involves persons with L.D. they may not have the full capacity to fulfil a person that does not have L.D. but this is work, work that no one else that will give these people, was the Labour Party in when the likes of Remploy was closed? No not a Rant, but a comment from a person that worked with these people & seen the distress caused to these people that thought they were a part of Society, "We are in it together! My fecking A R S E.
Using the language and attitude rather point more to a left wing rant.
Calling someone an idiot because you disagree with them is not really putting an argument forward.
I happen to agree with your underlying point, but your way of putting it over as a political score distracts from the message. Especially when your beloved labour were up to their necks in it too.
///It was the then LABOUR government, in 2008, that began the closure programme by sifting out factories which it deemed commercially unviable. Twenty-nine were shut down as a result.///
In 2007 Remploy management announced proposals to close 42 Remploy factories, later reduced to 28 after heated debates at TUC and Labour conferences, with then Work and Pensions minister, Peter Hain, (Labour)requiring proposed factory closures to have ministerial approval. 29 factories were eventually closed in 2008
Was it labour who caused the Biggest problem here or was is the banks? I forget, Was it the Labour Party who fiddled the uk out of Millions? I forgot, Was it Labour that sold the UK out, I must be mistaken, Was it labour that destroyed Yorkshire / Nottingham / the North East /Scottish Mines?I must have been asleep, DID British Steel belong to Britain, British Leyland / The Energy Suppliers,
TWR, you really do need to do some serious research, you appear confused, and bigoted, in this day and age there is no excuse for a lack of knowledge on the scale that you display, and replace with bigotry!
TWR, yes, I think you must have been asleep. More mines closed under Wilson and Callaghan than under Thatcher, and yes, Labour did sell this country out when they hiked off our gold reserves at knock down prices and squandered the money, not to mention selling the working man out when they rifled his pension and abolished the 10p tax rate for low earners. Open your eyes for goodness sake! Labour is not what you think it is. It relies upon the ideology of its past to retain its supporters - and they're falling for it. That ideology no longer exists within the Labour Party. It’s a fallacy.
