The arrogance of Keir Starmer beggars belief.
Labour did not have a landslide victory, the Tory vote collapsed. Starmer saw his vote halved, Wes Streeting scraped in on 500 votes. Starmer was unpopular before he was elected.
The sycophants are all regurgitating what Starmer has told them to say.
No Keir Starmer, you are not making difficult decisions. You have made bad decisions. The Budget was a bloody disaster, and started to unravel no sooner had economically illiterate Rachel Reeves sat down.
The difficult decisions are being made by the elderly on whether to put food on the table or turn on the heating, How many have to starve to death, freeze to death? Means testing is inefficient. It gives jobs to unproductive worthless jobsworths.
And please don’t insult us, there are wealthy pensioners who don’t need the Winter Fuel Payments. Increase the two top rates of Income Tax by 2p.
The difficult decisions are being made by parents who receive no Child Benefits beyond two children.
The difficult decisions are being made by small businesses. Do we cut hours, lay off staff or close the business?
The difficult decisions are being made by farmers with the imposition of Inheritance Tax, who will see the family farm destroyed. Target the minority who are exploiting a tax loophole.
No one would dispute, other than the right wing nutters in the Tory leadership, of the need to raise billions due to the poor state of our public sector.
There are better, more effective fairer ways of raising the money.
– wealth tax
– increase corporation tax
– carbon tax
– revenue tax Big Tech
– increase fuel duty
– tax ultra-processed foods cf sugar tax
But it would never do to upset those who have bought Starmer et al.
