Yup

I think Johnson may be doing too the tories what clegg did.

Only my opinion, but he reaps what he sows.

Apologies got your point now. I don't see the tories even being able to form a coalition government to be honest. Admittedly that it's a lot to do with where the tories sit, politically, at the moment. Well find out shortly. In any event things look much brighter now than they did 2 years ago...

You may be right, experts disagree. You clearly don't want to alienate your core support, something Johnson is doing very well. However I would disagree that starmer has done that. Some don't like him, he ain't my cup of tea either. He has no where near alienated the core labour support. Some...

I have said this before and I will try it again. Starmer and Johnson will target about 500k voters in the next election. They are the voters that will swing it one way or the other. Labour don't care what the staunch Labour voters think, they already have their vote. Elections are won and lost...

Anyone who abdicates their responsability at an election also abdicates the right to complain with the government that is elected. People died to allow us democracy, you besmerch their memory by refusing to use that ballot.

I don't get it either. Clearly the tories are not reading the nation very well at the moment. His cabinet are sticking with him because they want to continue drawing minesterial salaries as long as possible and a change of leader loses them their jobs. The backbenchers... Who knows.

So your answer is to keep poor people poor, hungry and cold. Ok. The single biggest driver of the current inflation is fuel costs. Our inflation is twice that of France or Germany. If you factor in a contracting economy its 3 times as high. You really are buying into a tory narrative that is...

Right got it. Your still wrong of course. Inflation isn't being caused by consumers. Let's put the onus on the poor to get us out of this, not the rich or businesses' taking a hit on profit. We should stand by and watch the poor starve and freeze. Sorry Andy utter nonsense.

The point someone made about strikes above and not agreeing with them and that wages never match inflation is total nonsense. When Blair was in no 10 we had inflation at 1.4% and over 10 years wages rise in real terms by 24%. I think it was Andy w. Don't believe the lies of the tories

That made me smile, hopefully Nick isn't currently seeking employment

James Obrien nails strikes and those who oppose them

I am frankly astonished that anyone is mentioning the current pay of striking workers, its irrelevant. Much more relevant is the, real terms, 20% pay cut the entire public sector have had to endure over the last 10 years. Why should they work for 20% less, indeed why should anyone? The lack of...

I think you'll find Billy that the government are loving the rail strike, or starmers rail strike as they are referring to it as. It gives them some ammunition to throw at Labour. It shouldn't, but does.
