The Labour Government

Google hasn't cherry picked results for me. I put in Labour WASPI, not anything more complicated which would filter out the results I didn't want.

Those results are for between the report coming out and the election. At no time after the report coming out, did Reeves say that she was going to pay compensation. The quote I gave you above, is about as clear an indication as you can get that she said she wasn't.

I appreciate your point about opposition and Government, and don't want to appear as rude. I was really just pointing out that they didn't go into the election promising compensation.

Edited to be more conciliatory ;)

Did you read my post? Someone suggested it was policy of the 'incoming Government' - i.e. the 2024 Labour Govermnent.

I can't find all the pictures, but the Liz Kendall one was from BEFORE the 2019 election. I'd imagine the Reeves one is the same time as it's the same banner. Since they we've had Covid, Truss, and Ukraine.

The Ombudsman's report came out in March, and their immediate response was that they wouldn't commit to any payments. It wasn't in the manifesto, and Reeves ruled out any spending that she didn't have money for when asked about it. The WASPI campaign themselves had said that Labour had stopped supporting them before the election, so it can't be argued that the lied to get elected.

Just watch the Good Morning Britain from today and then come back on here and tell me that they didn't promise compensation!

They said the same about the IHT issue with farmers as well, stating numerous times in opposition that they wouldn’t remove the exemption, so it’s no surprise that they’ve proved so duplicitous about this issue. And that’s before we even get to what they did in the Budget.

It’s just a shame that a few on here are happier embarrassing themselves defending it all rather than just calling it out.

In the run up to this election? Why not find out when those interviews took place, rather than suggesting I watch a 3 hour programme.

Someone has just posted photos from 2019 suggesting that means Labour went into this election saying they would provide compensation.

The right wing media today are claiming Labour went into the 2024 election promising compensation. That's a complete lie, and a few on here appear to have been taken in by it.

OK don't bother fella.
All I can say is I am not a liar.
But you are certainly a political sheep.

I didn't say you were a liar.

I just said that your comment about Labour going into this election promising compensation was wrong. I found the clip from Good Morning Britain, and it appears to have shown exactly the same photos from before the 2019 election, that someone posted above. Given the way it was presented, I can understand why you made the mistake of thinking that was the policy of Labour in 2024, but it's still a mistake.

The same newspapers that are today absolutely shocked by Labour's post-election betrayal, also ran articles in March, reporting the same "betrayal". When you've got the media getting away with total lies like that, then it's not a surprise that plenty of people are now under the impression that they went into the election promising something they very clearly didn't.
