The Labour Party

Hard to disagree with a word of what Mick Lynch says here.

Mandy has given us orders.

He wants our Ange out so they drop the "deal for workers".

Sir Keir and his team of cunts are now briefing against her.

Might be a "story" in the Daily Heil coming this weekend.

Rayner is more popular than Starmer in the membership. Some saying she has the personality which attracts non labour voters naturally.

The usual cunts don't like this.

Can’t get rid of Ange, sounds like usual shit stirring.

Imagine if he was a Tory….

“A major controversy around the donations accepted by new Labour First Minister Vaughan Gething is gathering steam, ahead of a Welsh Parliament vote on 1 May.

A Plaid Cymru motion calling for a cap on political donations for Senedd members will be debated next week, after it emerged that Gething accepted a £200,000 donation to his leadership campaign to be Welsh Labour Leader – from a convicted environmental polluter.

The donation came from David Neal, of the firm Dauson Environmental Group. Reports by WalesOnline revealed that Dauson Environmental Group Ltd was £400,000 in debt to the Development Bank of Wales, a bank wholly owned by the Welsh Government. The loan was awarded to the company when Vaughan Gething was Economy Minister.”

Yep this is more than a straight up Tory/ RW press hit job. A lot has happened since 2020 when Keith and Ange were front and centre .... if the taking the knee photo-op happened this summer it would be him and the Nancy Astor fangirl.
4 years and numerous shuffles later I reckon the fact that she appears to have no serious brief beyond the occasional appearance from the bench for some straight talking in PMQs says a lot. As a comparison I can't imagine Prescott settling for being Lord Duchy of whatever rather than a proper job like transport.
The problem they have is they cannot completely marginalise her because it is an elected position ..... the only thing that could bring her down is some form of orchestrated 'scandal'.
Bit tinfoil hat but that's my reading ;-)

She was also on the CAA hitlist .... back when they were taken seriously.

Within hours of EHRC report, CAA sends Starmer 72-page complaint targeting Rayner, Abbott, Osamor, RLB and others

Report, which accuses Rayner of antisemitism for sharing Jewish author’s article, was leaked to hard right site – and lists ‘new complaints’ against black peer, a string of …

Must be tomorrow morning that we hear about the Rayner stuff, always a good day to drop.

Functional public transport/Utilities/Healthcare and education should be state controlled imo.

Blatant profiteering by private owned concerns of the above are the reason why most of us are skint.

Would you be happy with it being in private ownership if it was non-profit? Ie it’s not the ownership model that bothers you but rather the profit factor.

Would you be happy with it being in private ownership if it was non-profit? Ie it’s not the ownership model that bothers you but rather the profit factor.

Can you give any examples of a private owned non profit in transport infrastructure?

What it is the benefit of it being privately owned and non profit?

A company limited by guarantee will have issues securing bank finance because it by definition doesn't generate profits.

The main way it could secure loans would be against real estate assets that are vital to the infrastructure.

It's not a charity or members club.

Infrastructure can't be run on a shoestring and gaffer taped together. It makes far more sense for it to have access to government funds in order to keep up the necessary maintenance and improvements.
