1/8 A question that keeps coming up on the @mrjamesob.bsky.social show on @lbc.co.uk is "What if Trump just declares victory and runs away?" I am only a Simple Seafarer - But I have given the matter some thought over the last few weeks. If it were easy to answer I would have rung in already...

Full article here - open.substack.com/pub/tashthin...
They'll happily reference the mess the economy was in when the Labour government took over last year, how there's a '£22 billion black hole' that desperately needs plugging. They're less keen to acknowledge the impact on the population after 15 years of systemic underfunding in health and social care. How the rising cost of the welfare state is inversely proportional to cuts made to the health budget. How difficult it is to access mental health services. How many have been left unnoticed and spiralling, their symptoms becoming ever-more severe until functioning becomes impossible. How Long COVID is a legitimate condition which has affected millions Nobody is talking about the fact that 38% of universal credit claimants are in work, which would lead one to the obvious conclusion that wages aren't high enough to sustain a basic living standard. Noone is acknowledging the soul-destroying, endlessly-complex and frustratingly one-size-fits-all process a person has to endure in order to get PIP (personal independence payments).
They aren't discussing these things because to do so would be to acknowledge that those in receipt of payments from the welfare state are human beings, trying their best to survive in an increasingly harsh and uncertain world, just like you and me. To recognise their humanity is to elicit empathy and then the whole plan is exposed as the barbaric sham that it is.
