cambridgeshire canary 7,565 Posted July 4 What exactly are you expecting the next few years of the UK being run by Statmer under a Labour super majority to look like? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 7,082 Posted July 4 Slow reform. Anyone expecting rapid changes is setting their expectations far too high. A prudent leader will slowly take stock of what's going on, come up with a more holistic position, then take it from there. This is about stopping the bleeding. Not pumping full of vitamins. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Continued participation in EU science research schemes, deeper cooperation on scientific collaboration, plus increased funding for science 11. Wages will be higher 12. The union will be stronger 13. Cut VAT on energy bills to save the average household £64 a year 14. Food will be cheaper ans we'll grow it all in Britain 15.

Constitutionally there is no such thing as a super-majority. Just a phantom pushed in desperation by the Tories and the right-wing press. And after Starmer the most important person in his administration will be Sue Gray. TheGunnShow is right that change may have to be slow, but any change needs to be implemented, and she will be the key figure in achieving that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nik Vawn 342 Posted July 4 All those socialists choosing to live abroad will come rushing back to pay their taxes in the UK and our public services will become the best in the world. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraytonBoy 231 Posted July 4 Public spending will have to rise from day one if Labour are going to follow through with their manifesto pledges plus there are a number of public sector pay disputes that urgently need to be settled.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Well b back 3,570 Posted July 4 I will be entrusting my vote on the basis the sleaze will end, not so much there isn’t any, but where there is, immediate action is taken. Obviously for me the NHS needs to be sorted, so you all get the care you deserve, and not what it has been run down to. I fully expect taxes to go up, but like many, if I see that resulting in improvements that’s fine. For people like me I will also have an eye on what happens to the conservatives as currently my vote is lent to Labour. If they go back to how they were, then maybe if the circumstances are right I will return also. I fear however they will just swing to the right, with one of Farage, Johnson or one of the mad brigade taking over. Anyone thinking they are voting for ‘ Sunak ‘ are living in a dreamworld as even if they win he will be replaced in days. Had they have voted him in instead of Truss, this really could have been different, certainly had they voted for Rory, I suspect we might have been predicting a different outcome today. Personally by the way I don’t think the Labour majority will be as big as predicted. As was proved with Brexit, people take in the totally rubbish scare tactics. I also think there will be more independents win and some posters could well hate having ceasefire candidates in Westminster. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 8,397 Posted July 4 Unfortunately I've been told that Starmer has declared all Pinkun posters must report to Norfolk and Norwich by 12pm tomorrow for mandatory gender reassignment surgery.

My crappy analogy. This will be like taking off your brick filled backpack after a 14 mile hike. You still have to build a fire and set up camp but at the moment you can just enjoy the relief of discarding the heavy weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both the telegraph and guardian are two sides of the same loony coin when you check out their opinion collums, you get the unhinged right wing in the telegraph and unhinged left wing in the Guardian. You get the Telegraph and its 'WOKE teachers FORCING your kids to BOW to George Floyd as they teach them about GAY SEX' stuff and then you get the Guardian being all 'Its OVER for boring Keir as everyone DEMANDS Corbyn be reinstated as Labour leader!'
