Keir Starmer at it again..

Blair, by about a billion percent. The Corbyn equivalent of this would be a blank sheet of paper.

Waste of time.

George Osborne, 2014: "We inherited a welfare system that didn't work. There was not enough help for those looking for a job – people were just parked on benefits. Frankly, there was not enough pressure to get a job – some people could just sign on and get almost as much money staying at home as going out to work."

Kier Starmer, today: "
“We were elected to change what is broken in our country. The welfare system is broken and that’s why we will press ahead with our reforms. It’s very important that we do so, because the current system is not working for anybody.
People are trapped in it and I’m not prepared to allow that to happen. So, we will press forward with our reforms.”

Ignoring Gideon but helping people find an appropriate job, where possible, is surely a good thing?

Absolutely, but you've got to put those systems and incentives (employer and employee) in place first, and see that the systems are working, before you start pulling benefits from people

Pretty sure they've said they're doing away with the Cameron-era stance of the DWP whereby it's "take this job, any job, no matter how suitable it is or we'll stop your meagre allowance of money, and also make sure you apply for 300+ positions a week"..

Knocking 150 Labour MPs signed the amendment now. How's fucked if caves and fucked if he doesn't. I think he might just try and ride it out and pray for abstentions

Just "noises off" apparently whatever the fuck that even means.

Every cunt that gets elected says exactly the same thing. It's why we need real change, not the same tired Thatcherite shite.

 

[Templeton Peck]

Loads of Labour MPs just need to defect to the Greens. Dunno why they fucking bother.

Just watch Adam Curtis’s latest documentary series ‘Shifty’ from the 70s and 80s to put a bit of perspective on how bad things are perceived to be currently.

Starmers first year has been a car crash. So many things could have been avoided with good advisors. Anybody who follows politics understands he has failed the core Labour vote very badly. I will never trust them again. 14 years of Tory shit and they come into power and just do the most inexplicable things. I just can’t get my head around it. I’m reading Truss at 10 by Anthony Sheldon which is a great in depth analysis of that particular car crash. He may need to sharpen his pen to write a book on Starmer quite soon.

And the door for reform to win by default gets wider…

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

to a tiny crack.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Voting for a party you have no faith in, to stop another party winning who you find abhorrent is fucking dismal though isnt it?

Where is the hope?
