They tried that shite in uk. #ToryAusterity gutted care, health & services nationwide.
Portugal started down the same route, saw it wasn't working & started spending again. Its economy bounced back higher & faster than uk.
Indeed.
The predictable result of #ToryAusterity resulting in bed cuts, staff shortages (aided by a virtual pay freeze) and an overwhelmed #NHS
Exactly what the #TraitorTories wanted to further their privatisation aims.
Worry not, #streeting is carrying on the program by vastly increasing #PFI

Next day, I heard on local radio that some voter voted #Leave not because he wanted to leave the EU but to send a "message" to #Cameron on the #ToryAusterity policies!
Don't remember seeing "Against #ToryAusterity on the ballot...
I pray for an educated population.

Much like the #GOPCrimeSyndicate the #reeferCoLtd party loves the uneducated.
Not forgetting the previous council was #TraitorTory run so the potholes are a #ToryAusterity legacy.
Based on counted votes, only
37.4659103796% voted for #Brexit
This includes many people who were seriously pissed off with #ToryAusterity wanting to send #TraitorCameron a message.
Sorry, wrong vote, wrong message!
Which means 62.6% of UK population didn't want #Brexit
Plus those not allowed a vote
Question is why wasn't this a concern on the previous 13yrs? After thr UN poverty warning reports on children in 2012 and two further??

#ToryGreed
The ultimate betrayal of uk citizens having to pay (again) for (another) failure of #Capitalism & the banking crisis. #ToryAusterity
Portugal realised early austerity wouldn't work and reversed.
'TMay redefined overseas students as 'migrants'.'
Why? To hide Tory #WelfareReform deaths. So many people died, plus the birth rate declined bc #ToryAusterity, it would have been obvious from population numbers. So Tories artificially boosted it while drawing attention to the 'increase'.
Anecdotal evidence also suggests some wealthy foreign residents are considering leaving the UK because of rising crime and concerns about access to services such as emergency healthcare.
14 years of #ToryAusterity and now even stricter #LabourAusterity, the super rich don't feel safe so they're leaving. Even if they want to pay into the system, govts refuse to collect tax. Neoliberalism hoovers up money to their private pockets, there's no 'trickle down'.
Slide. Photo of person in a wheelchait at recent protest holding sign 'Cuts = Death' Text: Disabled Man Dies in Squalor After DWP Cuts His Benefits This tragic death comes as Labour plans £4.5bn in Pip cuts. novaramedia 1 h A disabled man was found dead in squalid conditions weeks after the DWP wrongly cut his benefits for not returning a form. His sister believes he was left without money for essentials - including phone credit to call for help. Now, she warns that Labour’s planned £4.5bn cuts to PIP will lead to more deaths like his, as reported by the Disability News Service. David* (not his real name), 59, had run out of incontinence pads, and when his body was discovered by emergency services in his Salisbury flat, it was found covered in blood and faeces. His sister, Susan*, had grown increasingly worried after he failed to respond to her messages. David’s Pip had been discontinued just weeks earlier, on 4 January, after he missed the deadline to submit the lengthy form required for a review of his claim by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). According to Susan, David would not have been physically capable of walking to the post box to send the form, even if he had managed to fill it out, as he could “barely make it to his gate without falling over.”

Craig Murray @CraigMurrayOrg Pause to remember that the never ending austerity and public debt of the last 17 years was triggered by the massive bailouts to the bankers. The poor and the struggling underwrote the capital wealth and lifestyles of the super rich. The burden still falls on the poor, repeatedly 10:28 AM · Mar 27, 2025
The poor, working and middle class, to be more accurate.
To a billionaire, millionaires are 'the poor'.
Remember: bailouts = magic money tree

Doesn't Rachel Reeves get it? After 14 years of #ToryAusterity plus
the UN Committee on Rights of Persons with Disabilities found 'grave and systematic violations' of Disabled persons' rights had taken place since 2010, which 'disproportionately and adversely' affected the rights of Disabled people.

She didn't do the right thing.
What is the point of Labour?
More #ToryAusterity.

The only people ok with what Starmer's doing are the ones who weren't paying attention to #ToryAusterity They weren't affected then, they think they won't be affected now. Privilege blinds.

Tory party, always screaming about being the Party to protect Britain, left UK in this mess, with their massive cuts to defence budget, even after top General(s) warned them, Europe was on edge of a war! 🤷
#ToryAusterity take away after school social schemes for young people.
What did they think was going to happen?
What did they think the schemes were there for?
#ToryIncompetence over confidence in their own stupidity and total lack of actual understanding! 🤷
"[Y]outh violence correlates with cuts to community funding. Nearly half of London’s youth centres closed over the past decade due to austerity measures, alongside reductions in welfare, education, and addiction services"
#ToryAusterity
Not optimistic, but better than #ToryAusterity. Problem now is *everything* is in the scale of teetering to completely fucked: buildings, staffing levels, staff future planning, morale, equipment, and waiting lists/population health. And excess demand is cascading through GP > 111 > 999.
Ironically, when people were asked why they didn't vote for Jeremy Corbyn in 2019, some said it was "because he wanted to do away with foodbanks"!
They were too daft to understand it was the NEED for foodbanks he was against, i.e. by eradicating poverty.
#PovertyInBritain #ToryAusterity #ToryLies
Yes! After 14 years of damaging #ToryAusterity, current Labour Govt could immediately lift up to 800,000 Chidren out of Poverty by scrapping #2ChildPolicy & #ScrapTheCap at very little cost, & put building blocks in place to eradicate #ChildPoverty once & for all!
