Can we nationalise Turnberry golf course?

Labour are in power though. They got there because everyone was sick of the Tories. We’ve been doing things the way you suggest for decades but it’s got us nowhere.

Actually that is Socialism. The Labour Party was created to redistribute wealth not apologise for it. As for in work benefits - that’s a result of capitalism taking the piss out of the State by paying ridiculously low wages, taking the massive profits that creates the wealth you want to defend.

Do you really belong to the same party that created the Welfare State? The logic of your argument is that poor and disabled people should just die as rich people can’t afford to pay more. Britain has never been so unequal. That is unsustainable.

I can’t either. I can’t eat or drink and breathe through a tube in my neck. I still have a life. I did feel the same as you do now and sometimes I still do. A cancer charity counsellor helped me. Maybe you should think of that.

You will be ok. Disability sucks but we can still live a happy life. We all learn to make the best out of what we have. ❤️

Been there and I hated people saying things like bravery and battling cancer. I am not brave and I am no warrior. I did what I had to do and the radiotherapy and chemo did their stuff. We need to be more empathetic and stop just saying these silly stock phrases.

20% of the UK population own 66% of its wealth while 20% own 0.5%. Labour exists to reduce that inequality doesn’t it? If not what is it for. You don’t need to be a genius to work out how to pay for these things, you just need to be a socialist.

Have a word with your own MP’s then. Every concern I’ve written there are being raised by them too. As for what I said about a moral compass earlier; any party that considers cutting benefits to disabled people while the richest 2% amass more wealth than 50% of the population has lost theirs.

End child benefit cap, not to cut disability benefits, reverse winter payment cut, stop selling arms to Israel, tax wealth, end MP’s second jobs except those that need continuous practice (like Drs), end lobbying, stop freebies. That would be a start.

I can’t agree. Nothing will ever get better unless we start voting for things we want. There are millions of unhappy Labour voters now. Those votes should go to people that inspire hope for something better and then one day that will change the world.

You don’t even need to be on the radical left to feel like this. You just need to have a moral compass.

Was the small d a mistake? I doubt very much that the KKK believed in democracy as I understand it. If you meant Democrats, then so what? Ambushing a foreign leader with these lies makes all of America an international pariah not just Republicans.

If Trump ever visits South Africa, I hope they show him videos of the KKK and accuse him of genocide of black Americans. It would be more accurate.

Gary Lineker should really sign a new Media deal doing football coverage and steal all the BBC's viewers away for the 2026 World Cup. RT if you'd watch Gary Lineker over the awful BBC.

1/2 Cuts to support for disabled and long-term sick people would be devastating and are absolutely wrong on their own terms. But their effect is more pernicious than that, as I explain in this excerpt from a speech I gave to an anti-disability benefits cuts demo in Norwich recently.
