I think most people living in the UK would be astonished to know that this country is now more wealthy than Germany, and ranked 4th in the world
The millions struggling to eat and heat will be rightly wondering, where the f*ck it is?

Errr - no. You're just in a bubble.
A new mass-membership party of the left is being born in the UK. Keir Starmer, his acolytes and those for whom he is himself an acolyte, have designed their own downfall.

No, you need to look at the HoC from 2015-19. The Tory government lost votes all the time.
"Loyalty, Discipline" rather than "antique socialist values"? "Readiness To Match The Future" = "Tomorrow Belongs To Me"? Know what you sound like, fanboy? You're why the Labour Party is disappearing down the pan before your very eyes.
Oi, Kevin. Note this in your bio:
When Adam delved and Eve span
Who was then the gentleman?
Have you run that past Morgan McSweeney? Don't think he'd like one of his Starmeroids quoting dangerous socialist extremists like John Ball.
Am entire article about Labour losing support that does not even mention the genocide in Gaza. Valueless.
No, you're the idiot. Those discharges were in 2024, but SWW have not been included in the embargo on bonuses under that act. You're not good at this, Anonymous Starmeroid.
No mate, you agreed it was toothless under the tories. But then you claim it isn't now. Where's your evidence for that?
Got any evidence for that claim?
Interesting that, for example, South West Water's 56000 sewage spills over a period of 544000 hours during 2024 still seems to be worthy of a nice fat bonus.

Ironically, in view of your tag, the statement you cite is dated 2023, i.e. it was a tory measure. And presumably toothless.
Brazenly expressing pride at committing war crimes ...
If your politician can support Israel they can support anything.
This demonstrates the Starmer government's complicity in appalling war crimes. If there is any justice in this world, they will be made to answer for this act of vicarious inhumanity.
To try and make this clear as possible. There is a finite amount of drs, nurses and AHPs in the UK.
For every hour they work in the private sector, they will not be working in the NHS.
If we increase hours in the private sector as per Labour Policy, we will loose NHS capacity
Questions for Starmer:
1) where do you think staff in the private sector come from? (Spoiler, it's from the NHS)
2) why would we invest in the private sector as a preference to investing directly in the NHS?

Days after Israel confirms it is arbitrarily detaining Palestinian hospital director Dr Hussam Abu Safiya at a notorious prison camp, the UK government remains silent.
This is an unforgivable failure of obligations to human rights and international law.
Starmer rejects his entire campaign strategy for election to the leadership of the Labour Party. But only when used by other people.
The astonishing cognitive dissonance of a health secretary who insists he'll save the NHS - yet kicks the social care crisis into touch until 2028.
1 in 8 medically fit NHS patients cannot leave hospital for lack of social care.
Of course A&E is overwhelmed 🤷♀️

Instead of using the last days of his presidency to call for peace, Joe Biden has poured more money into arming Israel’s destruction of Gaza.
A shameful indictment of his administration and its complicity in genocide.
5.2m children, 36% of UK children, live in poverty.
Ending the two-child benefit cap would lift 500,000 out of poverty, cost £2.5bn.
Taxing capital gains at the same rate as wages raises £14bn.
Govts that gave £895bn QE to speculators, can also end poverty.

Reeves says UK economic turnaround will take time.
Can't revive economy without improving people's purchasing power.
16m people live in poverty. Profiteering is rife. 1% has more wealth than 70% of population combined.
Needs action now. Tax the rich.

We are mugged.
More than a third of water bills service debt & dividends; leaks not plugged, sewage dumped.
50% at Wessex Water.
Water companies paid £85bn dividends, borrowed £60bn. OFWAT approved huge hike in bills.
Govt won't end the privatisation scam.

How come Labour can find money when it wants to? youtu.be/vdnMDz3wuqs?... Labour found £6 billion in the last week to buy 166,000 houses for the Ministry of Defence. The spending wasn’t budgeted, so how did it fund the money all of a sudden?
