David Marshall @justonefollower.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Labour’s lesson from 2010’s Bigotgate was that bigots are unconvertible and their opinions must be enacted to the letter for a policy to be acceptable – and that it’s everyone else who needs to adapt. This was the wrong lesson. 000

David Marshall @justonefollower.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I agree with Zack Polanski on many things, but this isn't a long-term solution. The double-ratchet effect of the triple lock means that the state pension consumes a larger and larger share of GDP. Not of tax income, but the actual entire economy. It is, and always has been, an unsustainable model. 320

When Cameron introduced the triple lock I remember everyone on the left understanding very clearly why it was a cynical bribe to Tory voters and would not amount to a hill of beans if public services like social care were cut to the bone. Some of the same comrades are now big fans. 🧐 3035441
