It’s rime to make unpopular decision this happens in every political cycle, I’m confident that the stars will align in just under 5 years time.

I think the UK should buy British wherever possible. Support our own business to grow, be profitable, generate jobs and build their experience generating even more growth. Indeed. Am I right in thinking there is no such "Buy British" rule with regards to ZEBRA funding? There should be some stipulation that a significant % of componentry, manufacturing or final finishing is done in the UK to support UK jobs. It would be rather jarring if ZEBRA funding was used to buy 100% sourced and built Chinese buses whilst the likes of ADL are laying off jobs. You would be lucky, that is the problem with this country, one of the reasons many British bands get bought out or collapse as that the general public show no loyalty. Other countries are not like this. The British car industry is a perfect example of this.

Aww, I’m getting worlds smallest violin out for Keir Freebies son 😂. Does he not have friends he could study with or family he could stay with nearby? Such an arrogant man, it’s not about the cost to the taxpayer, nobody cares about that. It’s the sheer hypocrisy all of them are bathed in now. Hate the way he acts like Kentish Town is a thousand miles from Downing Street. His kids could just take the f**king 88 if he was feeling a bit sad.

How many free sports tickets have Starmer and MPs received?With debate around free gifts for MPs a running theme of the Labour Party’s annual conference, BBC Sport has looked into how many 'freebie' tickets to sports events ministers have received this year.www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/ce9j2ky7412oTo me this is a farce, MP's receiving these free gifts even if it is of little value is only encouraging them to do things that favour these companies or individuals when they need something. After all these companies do not give free tickets to various local schools etc. They are only there for if you scratch my back I would scratch yours.I won't back down on broken NHS claims - StreetingWes Streeting says he will not back down in his criticism of the NHS, after the BBC revealed there was growing unease in the service about the "broken" NHS messaging from government.www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2k0449747oSickness benefit claimants should look for work - PMKeir Starmer has said he believes that people claiming long-term sickness benefits should be expected to look for work.www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y8g5z67lzoHad Boris or any other Conservative MP said this all the lefties would be up in arms and the Mirror and Guardian would have pratt on about it for weeks.

Like a 217 bus' slipboards at night, it's hard to see where Starmer is going It all seems rather "Spursy", at the moment it reminds me of the famous Southampton game where Conte lost it after they threw away a 3 goal lead to end up drawing... after such a majority win, it seems they are doing a lot to pee people off now they have got into power. Though Rosie Duffield can be easily replaced with another knackered E400 from Edmonton, to continue the analogy

That is noting new, that is POLITRICKS for you, vote for me and I would promise the world. When they have won, then they would forget their manifesto and promises and skew the lines. The Lib Dems and Reform are actively pushing for PR but yet when they get into office I can only assume it’ll be more of the same from them. They both ran on ambitious campaigns yet undoubtedly they’ll be watered down if they ever got close to power PR or FPTP. Remember the tuition fees gaffe? A few days ago a friend of mine remarked that he had found the LibDems had gone rather quiet on PR now that FPTP is working so much more in their favour than Reform's.

Give a few years or months we would hear or see videos or other parties that Starmer attended during covid. The same way how P Diddy denied any wrong doing of anything to the women until one video emerged of him beating one up in a hotel lobby.
