Should the slogan for Labour during the General Election not have been …
- Vote for Change … Stay the Same
It certainly wasn’t, Vote Labour and it will get worse.
People are waking up to the fact they have been betrayed by Keir Starmer and Labour.
We cannot say we did not warn you, you were warned by Novara Media, by Owen Jones, by myself.
Labour have refused to lift the Child Benefit cap beyond two children. The half a dozen Labour MPs of integrity who voted against the cap, John McDonnell et al, were immediately suspended from the Parliamentary Labour Party.
Pensioners who are not in receipt of Pension Credits will be stripped of their Winter Fuel Payments. Hypocrite Labour MPs voted to deny the elderly of their Winter Fuel Payments.
We did not need a report by Labour to tell us the NHS was on its knees. Try seeing your doctor let alone a consultant or pay a visit to A&E especially on a Friday night.
The response of Keir Starmer, no more money for the NHS.
The post-WWII Labour government , the country in ruins, did not say, no money, they found the money and created the NHS and the Welfare State. Children were better off than their parents. Now children are worse off than their parents.
If we look to Europe, they fund their health services.
There is the money, a 2% Wealth Tax would raise £24 billion.
- Wealth Tax
- Windfall Tax Banks
- Windfall Tax Big Oil
- Carbon Tax
- Windfall Tax Big Tech
- 5% Revenue Tax Big Tech
- Tobin Tax
- Increase Corporation Tax
We need to do more to lessen the societal costs to the NHS.
Deal with binge drinking bars. One warning, then closure.
Open Walk in Clinics. Lincoln used to have a Walk in Clinic. It was closed, leading to additional pressure on A&E.
Free Social Care. Not rob people of their life savings to pay for social care.
Extend No Smoking areas.
Tackle ultra-processed food. There is to be a ban on TV advertising before 9pm. There should be a ban on advertising, on sponsorship of sporting and cultural events. A warning on all ultra-processed food. A tax on ultra-processed food. A presumption against granting planning consent for junk food outlets.
Cutting Winter Fuel Payments will lead to many more elderly needing hospital visits.
Please sign and share the 38 Degrees petition calling for increased NHS funding and action.
