I don’t know. Maybe open a public inquiry into the £6 Billion that was swept under the rug following the COVID fraud first?
Edit: Seems the right pocket gang are out on force today parroting the old rags’ sidelines. Apparently it is ok for politicians, and mates, to commit fraud because it has nothing to do with this. Sure thing chief.
This is the darkest timeline and so hoping that the rebels will defeat the Government and force Starmer to step down is rather a lot, but it would be very nice to have a Labour Government.
We knew it would be a clown show but this is just something else.
The most modest cuts ever that the government talked up and advertised but the cute are too small so they will have to redo the botched job afterwards anyway, just with even less public and political support.
So what are they whining about?
The government cut WFA, and the triple lock means pensioners get that back and some
They tightened up eligibility because the welfare bill was going to hit 70 billion and keep climbing.
They are also investing the money saved back into mental health support, and in person support for disabled people to work.
They are also changing things, so those that are permanently disabled, never have to be reassessed for financial support, and increasing the support to this group.
They also want to support disabled people back to work, by ensuring they do not loose their benefits if they want to try a part time job.
Which is apparently things people wanted but now they are pissed they are getting it?
*I want change . . . No stop changing things* 😭

What I love, is all the papers screaming about this, are also the papers that scream about people being on benefits and calling them leeches.
This was the job many Labour MP’s thought they were applying for.
“Come and be a Labour MP. Pick a few popular campaigns and jump on the bandwagon. Don’t vote for anything that someone could say is nasty, and always ensure that you claim to be standing up for “working families”. Reasonable hours, and the only requirement is that you never under any circumstances take money from someone because that’s nasty!”
The reality.
“Thanks to Brexit, Covid and other global factors the UK GDP is not performing to a level where you can be profligate with money. This means as an MP you have to make some pretty hard decisions and you can’t just keep writing cheques the country can’t cash. You’re going to have to earn your pay, and actually realise that not everyone or everything that gets money from the Government needs it to the same level. Sometimes you’ll have to move money from one place to another for the good of the country. This is going to make you feel pretty shitty, but it goes with the leadership role you asked people to vote for. If you don’t want this, then please pick a party that will perpetually be in opposition so you can go on feeling good about yourself. But make no actual difference ever.”
PS:- If you mess this up because you were too worried about people not thinking you’re a nice person you’ll open the door to Farage, and that will be YOUR fault.
labour have such a massive majority. Get rid of keir and get somebody else in, legalise weed, abolish tuition fees and the lords.
Sad that we see this more over welfare reform than cuts to skilled immigration. This country is allergic to growth…
We need a 100 plus apparently for a vote of no confidence in a PM. It could happen but not before they screw over the disabled.
Cuts benefits. Also cuts taxes for American corporations.
The NHS pay deal is now late, again, and still being kicked around at 50% below inflation.
Summer and winter of strikes ahead. More backlogs. More delayed treatments.
Amazon paying any tax in 2026, we think? No, me neither.
How many will freeze/starve this winter, we think?
Government that isn’t for or by the people is an oxymoron. Nothing about Labour so far has been transparent, planned or proportionate. Just the flim flam man we knew he was before the election – which is why he and his “policies” and “manifesto” got less of an endorsement than Red Ken did in 2019.
Sacked by Christmas.
This headline is here every week. Are they actually doing anything?
Worked my entire life …have given 800 pounds in deductions every month…and had a serious run of bad luck ..Ive had to jump through hoops to get help and the help I did get didn’t even cover the rent …I’ve not eaten for 3 days and I’m contemplating suicide …what a horrible time to be alive
Broken left. Broken right.
Can Charles III just take over for an election cycle?
Lol this is so funny to me either Labour lean to the right which the country is already socially right wing regardless and move to cut immigration because the people pressured them to or lean left to keep there MPs happy.
