whelk

At least this time whatever mad fucker they choose will have fuck all impact on our lives. The nasty little fucker Jenrick won’t even have the power to paint over a kid’s mural as he fully gets behinds mad fucker Badenoch.

They could learn a thing or two from King Canute

And more prisons to accommodate 10% of the civil service

Mental if true

10 more years, 10 more years

I have to turn off when he comes on. Really irritating delivery and too fucking excitable. No didn’t know that. I’m sure he is an ok bloke beneath the tv persona

Tbf whenever it has come with any pensioners I have spoken to they have all said fair enough and not complained about losing it, although they are by no means only getting state pension. I can’t believe HMRC and DWP shouldn’t come up with something crude like you still get it if income is less than £20k pa

I propose we give disability benefit to everyone as there are genuine people who need it and might not know how to claim it

Martin Lewis the stupid man’s hero. He’s as publicity seeking as Piers Morgan. Great that the WFP sorted out pensioners with dementia eh.

What about resisting her blackness?

It’s the platinum triple lock that took a high CPI in September the previous year. 10.1% I believe. Of course pensions need to be indexed link to counter inflation but it is the most protected of any other benefit. a single mum isn’t getting 10.1% increase and guess what……their fuel prices have gone up too.

What is laughable is Tories getting so worked up when it suits. Anyone would think WFA was brought in by Bevan.

What’s £900 minus £200?

Hope Labour are planning to build more morgues for all dead Tory pensioners come the cold snap? Bet they haven’t even laid out their plans to fund them. Broom broom.

Slow speaking football pundits. Fucking get on with it. And while I’m at it you don’t need to say ‘football club’ after team name

I think there are a few simpletons here who don’t understand how the Treasury works. Keep getting excited though

What we need to be careful of is a surge in demand when England get knocked out of the WC semi final on penalties. Was bad enough after the Bournemouth game.

You can see in local councils that decisions on special educational needs are now clearly driven by costs rather than welfare of the child. Hence the push by many for inclusion in mainstream that rarely works in secondary education. This is under the guise of it being better for the child which clearly isn’t. Although no one has the budget so no easy solution.

Interesting discussion but could do with being split out from Starmer thread

Isn’t that how democracies work?

It will be free vote so not something to lay at the door of the government pushing an agenda

I think the freebies is overblown but is of their own making as they seem to have amateurs managing their comms. Someone like Campbell I’m sure would’ve shut it down earlier and get everything out there and move on - although was lot simpler in the times before social media. I think Phillipson is wet and everything I don’t like about Labour. Also think Starmer is always worried and needs to plough on with some radical changes - many of which I am sure won’t personally benefit me. But he seems to care too much what the right wing press think and they are going to constantly pile on as long as he is in power. Hysteria about the winter fuel payments is laughable - people like you talking about grannies freezing to death. You get £900 more but £200 less - quite simple arithmetic so if someone can’t afford to put the the heating on this winter then they are pretty poor at budgeting.

Presumably you want VAT to be removed from many other goods and services?

Wait til Duckhunter bleats about his second home come the October budget. Only reason he rinses his tenants is cos he has been told he can the greedy bastard.

Tbf you sound like the hysterical halfwit
