And people ask that if Labour don't publish, today, a plethora of policies in a manifesto that will instantly, clearly and indisputably reverse the national decline caused by the tories, then why vote for them?Utter corruption
Getting passed on Monday.
Sunak's family firm signed a billion-dollar deal with BP before PM opened new North Sea licences
The CEO of one of Infosys' other major clients, Shell, also joined Rishi Sunak's new business council two weeks ago.www.thelondoneconomic.com
And people can't work out why someone with such obscene family death wants to be PM.
As if this justifies allowing a bunch of venal ****s to carry on gorging on public resources, redirecting public money into their own bank accounts. Even voting for it. Sake.

The NHS, Education, Judiciary, housing and all aspects of British Infrastructure falling apart after years of Austerity, Brexit exposed by the stark reality, Covid inquiry Procurement module coming up, even the most frighteningly naive starting to wonder what they've done to themselves. We're literally down to months left.
Desperately fill your pockets while you can, it really can't be a surprise can it ?

I organised a visit from Skidmore to my workplace 5 years ago. Seemed very intelligent and decent. I couldn't understand what he was doing in such a dreadful party.

Also one standing down at the next election anyway whose seat is being abolished. That's all we are going to hear from the "government".
That said...
Could have gone quietly but decided to make a stand.
Interesting one, a by-election where the winner will only be there for a few months.

During some of the Horizon/Post Office shenanigans, guess who was CEO of Fujitsu.
Why, it was Secretary of State for Education, Gillian Keegan’s husband Michael Keegan.

Personally, I want Labour to publish because I want to be inspired to vote Labour by well thought out policies that will make a real difference. I will vote for them regardless in order to have a government that (hopefully) will not be corrupt, dishonest and completely devoid of ability. So they have my vote, but I do not believe they have a clue as to what they are going to do to make a difference, apart from integrity. As I have said before, that is enough , but then if they wont admit to not having workable policy then they are not being honest even before they become a government.And people ask that if Labour don't publish, today, a plethora of policies in a manifesto that will instantly, clearly and indisputably reverse the national decline caused by the tories, then why vote for them?

I'm not sure that they won't admit to not having a workable policy. I would imagine they think they do have a workable policy. But policy is very different from strategy, tactics and plan. A lot of that will need months to roll out. It's a bit like football management. Birmingham changed their policy when they brought in Rooney. Get rid of the anonymous plodder and replace him with England's second greatest goal scorer. There was no thought to strategy tactics or plan. Brighton didn't change policy when we brought in RDZ. Another bright young manager untested in UK football, who had achieved above expectation with unfashionable clubs. Our strategy didn't change a great deal either (in terms of spending on players - albeit it may have done so and we don't know about it because it is secret) but our tactics did. A different way of playing, and a different type of man management and training. I see good politics being like how Brighton is run. And that does not mean explaining in advance how every team selection over the next 5 years will achieve a win, or having to apologize and resign whenever we lose. And we put our trust in Bloom without his explaining the strategy tactics or plan. For the moment I'm content to cut Starmer some of the slack I cut Dick Knight when he took over from Archer. Whether the country is a f***ed as we were when we lost the Goldstone is a matter that only history will be able to determine.
The difference between leading your party and being led by your party.

Rishi Sunak had significant doubt over Rwanda plan, papers suggest
New documents indicate the PM had doubts about sending migrants to Rwanda when he was chancellor.

Moved across from the Post Office
I worry that this country is in worse state than the Albion under Archer
At least under Dick Knight there was hope of some sort of recovery with the full support of everyone behind him.
Despite everything that has happened and how bad it has become, Starmer will not get full support as he tries to turn around a generational downward shift in our fortunes.
Well....I was going to tweak my post in that direction, but decided to be less hyperbolic. We don't yet have to rent part of Belgium and move the population there for two years while we find an uninhabited island to build a new societyMoved across from the Post Office

A 34-year-old Spanish woman was forcibly removed from the UK after returning from a Christmas holiday near Málaga despite presenting Brexit paperwork to border officials showing she has a right to live and work in the country.
She was flown back to Spain after being detained overnight in Luton airport on 26 December and told she was “wasting her time” if she thought the Home Office documentation she had showing her right to live in the UK was valid
