Blog.rorymcleod.com/farages-reform… Leaving the ECHR is what wealthy tax dodgers businessmen like Farage want; they want austerity but not tax cuts for their rich mates, not protection, + limited legal working hours for working people. Not trade union rights, they want to privatise our NHS.

Christianity is an aggressive religion, feudalistic, a Christianity which rejects the teachings of Christ  in favour of a war-mongering, mean-spirited ideology  that valorizes violence + guns over peace + pacifism. Religion and the state should be separated.

5/ Labour are just trying to manage and run capitalism better than the Tories. No change then!

Rory Mcleod @rorymcleoduk.bsky.social · 19/03/2025
4/ The Tories denationalised and sold off things that made a profit like the royal‬ ‪Mail and we are still bailing ‪Out companies that fail with public money‬. What is the labour government's argument for this bail out?

Rory Mcleod @rorymcleoduk.bsky.social · 19/03/2025
3/ It was The Tories who Socialised the debt and privatised the profit. Now labour's version of capitalism want socialism to help when things go bad-bailing out banks+‬ companies that fail with public money.‬ ‪We should already own the banks that we've bailed out ! ‬

Rory Mcleod @rorymcleoduk.bsky.social · 19/03/2025
2/we would then be able to invest those profits- normally paid out to private shareholders- and modernise our water system.‬ We should be investing in ourselves-using those profits to improve conditions, bring lower prices, instead of that money going to shareholders.‬
