Woohoo! You get to chose between Conservative and conservative again. 08:04 - Sep 23 with 1347 views | BanksterDebtSlave | https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2021/sep/22/keir-starmer-essay-sets-labour- Keir Starmer has set Labour on a decisive course toward the centre ground in a 35-page statement of intent that emphasises the values of hard work, contributing to society and partnership with the private sector. Edit...lol....gubberment by sound bite... “The next Labour government must deliver sustainable growth, repair the public finances and give people the means to take back control.” [Post edited 23 Sep 2021 8:07]

Woohoo! You get to chose between Conservative and conservative again. on 08:21 - Sep 23 by BanksterDebtSlave | Ffs it gets better....this should fix the ills in our society... 'Highlighting the challenges facing children from low-income backgrounds, he says Labour would help provide the “soft skills” that allow private school pupils to emerge with “enviable self-confidence, self-worth and belief,” That would mean ensuring that by the age of ten they have the opportunity to “play an instrument, join a competitive sports team, visit the seaside, the countryside, or the city, go to cultural institutions, ride a bike and learn how to debate their ideas.” |
“play an instrument, join a competitive sports team, visit the seaside, the countryside, or the city, go to cultural institutions, ride a bike and learn how to debate their ideas.” Wow. How ridiculous to suggest that. Surely children need to be aiming at much more important skills thats needed today like getting good at Apex Legends. That Starmer just doesnt get it. He's not in the 21st Century. |  |

Woohoo! You get to chose between Conservative and conservative again. on 09:28 - Sep 23 by chicoazul | Pay more? The UK is already a middle to high tax economy. I don’t think more taxation is the answer. And if people are lucky enough to live in the UK they do live in a nice country relatively speaking anyway. |
Not suggesting anything massive, to the level of the 1970s or Scandinavia. But another penny in the pound - perhaps on corporate tax - should raise enough to sort out childhood food poverty in the UK. But instead people prefer to grumble about "scroungers". |  |

And they tend only to work if a leader is able to convey the sense that they are now truly free to be themselves. Starmer, however, seems to have searched his soul and merely found another focus group. |  |

These are Starmers people... Senior officials from the right of the party spoke of their opposition to policy positions adopted by the party under both Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership, but also that of his predecessor Ed Miliband. In one 2015 exchange, a member of staff said: “Brace yourself. [Shadow chancellor John] McDonnell just called for corporation tax to go up.” Another replied: “You’re kidding me. I can’t quite believe it.” |  |
