I’m struggling to understand why the public should fork out for “pet rent” (which the ombudsman & Labour says is within the rules) when the Labour Gov is cutting benefits in way which will push more children into poverty & make it more difficult for the disabled www.standard.co.uk/news/politic....

Progressives, *just* attacking Labour isn’t as useful as creating leverage over them and using that to push them forward. If we only attack, we help the people that are *much* worse. That’s not a lesser-of-two-evils argument, it’s our broken system, that we can use our leverage to get them to fix
