The Labour Government

I am unsure what stretches credulity more , the 22 Billion black hole or this …….

How can someone have all that money and look like his Mam cuts his hair with a broken basin.

Opinions are like arseholes.

Facts are facts.

I prefer the wait and see approach rather than seeking confirmation bias from an opinion writer.

OK Lets see .......

Facts are facts, and in the seven months since the election, growth has been weaker than in the seven months prior.

All today's figures show is that it's a mistake to pay too much attention to one month's data. Which is exactly the mistake you're making.

Indeed it has. The next 4 months are key to you argument as the previous 4 month period that will take us a year comparison were -4%, 0, 0, -4%. Let's see how things are then. But of course it can't be a direct comparison as Trump wasn't in power before July 2024.

So let's do what you suggest and wait another 4 months.

Other than noting it’s happened I’ve not commented on it at all other than saying it’s best to wait and see what the significance is in response to someone who posted a negative opinion.

The sad thing is that people like you would like nothing more than the government to fail because of your weird loyalty to the bunch of chancers who ran the country into the ground for 14 years or to the new more extreme version of them led by frog face.

So you like facts, but not the fact I posted.

Also, on the topic of people ignoring economic news which doesn’t support their views, what did you make of the March statement? I know you’ve been such a vocal critic of austerity down the years, so I’m keen to hear your views. I mean, I was keen to hear them last month when Reeves announced her spending cuts, but you were strangely quiet on the matter for some reason.

Some reason other than weird political loyalties, of course, because nobody could ever accuse you of that.

Fact..... Government reconvenes Parliament to naionalise British Steel to save Scarborough....

Port Talbot says thank you... what? Our blast furnaces didn't count.

Totally support the nationalisation but why not Port Talbot?

They should fucking find out why we (the British public) are paying some of the highest fuel costs in the world to foreign countries who own our fuel companies.... that would make the Steel works more cost effective.

Notwithstanding the fucking NET ZERO shit they are forcing upon us all for huge cost and zero benefit on global carbon emissions.

Good to see you are across the detail as per.... where is that Muttley meme when you need it :-)

I have no comment on the fact you posted, in the same way I have not commented on the fact I posted.
You’re babbling about austerity and Reeves just for deflection and I’m not interested in discussing it or anything else with you.

No, I didn’t expect you would be interested in that discussion.

 

[hilts]

Not sure what you’re on about.

I commented on the WFA if that’s what you mean by cold pensioners.

What is there to say about MP assaults other than they’re cunts, and it’s good to see a party leader deal with shit like this straight away rather than promote them to deputy chief whip like Johnson did with the MP who was accosting junior male staff.

As for hiding from bad growth figures in the first few months of a new government you’re a bit desperate there aren’t you.

I never said you didn't comment, hard work sometimes on here.

You're welcome.... Muttley will no doubt appear in due course..... he just cannot resist me.

As for why not Port Talbot blame yer man Nige, he decided to go to Scunthorpe.

I’ve had him on ignore for months, not worth the time.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

It’s an utterly pointless thread now. Same people saying the same things and then insulting each other, whilst no minds are changed and nothing progressive is ever discussed.

It’s a thread that lets people vent to make them feel better briefly, before looking out of the window and shaking their fists at the sky again.

WTF has that link got to do with Port Talbot.

You guys really are scared of Farage...he's not anywhere near being PM.

Since when has Farage been pro-nationalisation, hes more your free market entrepreneu. The narrative doesn't really fit with the nationalisation of the steel works and enegry companies (for starters) does it? Maybe I'm a radical left winger...

I mean he literally said it a few days ago hence the link. My point wasn't entirely serious but flew way over your head ... but Muttley never did catch any pigeons :-)

His Party has won 14 council seats in the 264 council by-elections since the GE - there is no tsunami its just certain outlets love to have him on talking shit coz its "edgy" and gets clicks. Sir Robin Day would be turning in his grave.

 

[blueinsa]

Utterly pointless to have a thread discussing the current government and its policies.

Just utterly pointless.

Right everyone, back to the Tory and Trump threads we go!

I hear that the ‘World has Changed’.

I hear that the ‘World has Changed’.

It has but fear not, we will go “further and faster” to combat it.
