Rachel Reeves doing the media rounds this morning telling bare faced lies about Labours last two manifestos. Both were fully costed. Starmer helped write and promote the 2019 one. Don't care if its Owen Jones, probably the first time I've ever linked him but he's 100% right here.. Shit like this from a Labour shadow chancellor needs to be called out.

Well knock me down with a feather, after all these years I've just discovered Michael Jackson is amongst the backing singers on this 1980 Wonder masterpiece from the album Hotter than July. The fact Wonder plays every instrument bar the Saxophone is less surprising. Anyway...

Levelling up. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/jan/05/ftse-100-bosses-paid-more-in-three-days-than-average-uk-worker-for-whole-year

Hmm maybe. I'm not so sure, I think he's learnt how to play them as well as he can under the circumstances.

I can. He almost came back and got control the other month. If the Tories are looking at a heavy defeat in a years time or so imo they'll be ruthless in fucking Sunak off.

Put your cutthroat razor away Sweeny its only a discussion.

I think he would, I think he'd be less divisive. I take your general point on the lack of political talent about at the moment though (on all sides).. if that was your general point. Parliament as a whole is grim.

Burnham or any other Labour politican willing to stop the continuing scandal of privatisation. Our energy/rail/water bills are the highest in Europe, not only can the public no longer afford it the costs to consumers are prohibiting growth within the wider economy.

And back on the subject of HoC bars and restaurants, car parking etc. Cost to taxpayers per ammum 17 million. https://www.opendemocracy.net/en/food-poverty-parliament-mps-taxpayers-cost-of-living-subsidies/ Meanwhile; https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/cost-of-living/hospital-parking-charges-nhs-staff-23769443

This will help the yawning.. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-59539589.amp

Yawn indeed. https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/nurse-salary-strike-disparity-with-mps_uk_636cf2d5e4b06d3e42583882 The more valiant point is the country would still tick along fine without MPs, just look at Matt Hancock fucking off to Australia. This country would fucked without nurses. As for HoC bars and restaurants. Most are Mps/staffers guests only. https://w4mp.org/library/researchguides/welcome/access-to-refreshment-facilities-in-the-palace-of-westminster/ https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/mar/15/parliamentary-bars-what-really-like

Yeah like MPs who have now cancelled free car parking granted for NHS staff during the pandemic.

Clown.

No its because as announcements go its an irrelevant announcement to people's fucking lives. People are dying on waiting lists, starving outside food banks and unable to heat homes, yet posh lad makes a silly dig about Twitter

"I've no idea what she does" 'If it wasn't for this thread wouldn't know about it" "To say I don't care would be an understatement" "Couldn't give a fuck" "I'm just saying'"

The cutthroat razor mobs will out in force after this... I blame Redfield and Wilton. Or twitter, or jumbely crobbin, or someone else.

And probably the same poster.

Typical cat. They're great.

I've seen that. They're fucking great ain't they.

I believe she did. I vaguely remember that.

Yeah crazy little creatures birds.

Cares so little to write four posts about it these past few hours.

Good old Mr Benn. A bit of history. Their was one book out of fourteen the bbc refused to make, they deemed it too controversial. Mr Benn the Convict. In it Mr Benn is disillusioned by the drab surroundings of prison life and decides to amongst other things brighten it up by painting the cells. Mr Benn was apparently one the most popular programmes shown in jail and the BBC thought the Convict episode could put ideas in prisoners heads. https://www.britishclassiccomedy.co.uk/mr-benn-1971 Edit; Ironically half of the BBC presenters ended up in there for real. So the moralising might have backfired a bit.

Fabulous little vid this. Note the bird stare directly at girl before taking some food.
