shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026There are definitely pensioners in poverty and they should definitely receive more help from the state but increasing the state pension to everyone in that bracket when a lot of them are already wealthy isn’t the answer. More children are currently living in poverty than pensioners in the UK. 010

shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 17/09/2026This isn’t a true picture of pension income in the UK. When you look at pension wealth or household income rather than just comparing the state pension you see that the current UK pensioners especially homeowners are some of wealthiest in Europe not the poorest. 210

shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Leveson 2 was meant to examine the relationship between journalists and the police and whether this enabled press misconduct. Am I missing something? But can you point me to any Starmer activity around tackling the media corruption?! 100
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Honest to God there’s nothing I’d like more than to be proved wrong on Burnham. That he comes in and is the actual fair change we’ve all been waiting for! After Brexit, Boris and Starmer, I’m sick of telling people I told you so. 000
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 17/05/2026He’s going to treat Makerfield and the membership like they live in 2 different countries! With one side of his mouth he will tell the folks in Makerfield there’s no EU return on the cards and when he address’s the membership he will tell them we have to return. Labour continuity bull 💩! 010
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 16/05/2026Are we really falling for this? He’s moving like Starmer did in 2020 (with those now lost pledges) and just telling the membership what they want to hear! Let’s not fall for the none binding, heavy on the ‘one day’ empty rhetoric again! 0100
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 16/05/2026He’s doing exactly what Starmer did with the 2020 pledges - telling the membership what they want to hear! And just like Starmer he’ll have no qualms dropping anything appealing he’s saying now for his Evil Corp bosses once in power. 1191
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 16/05/2026But the conspiracist in me - thinks that Starmer could of done something about this media corruption, not dropped Leveson 2 and really tackled these dark influences on public opinion but he chose instead to get in bed with Murdoch pre election for his endorsement and here we are! 110
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 16/05/2026People should be weary of pinning their hopes on Polanski but the same has to be said for believing Burnham won’t renege on any promises he makes right now (he has a history!) or that he alone can save the country from Reform! 000

Whoever replaces him had better be prepared to stand up for us, or Labour's finished. 751438372
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 16/05/2026He’s not pro Palestine though. He’s a Labour friends of Israel member. He’s soften his opinion as he’s seen the public anger towards Israel’s actions but like on Brexit he’s a flip flopper! He’s basically a northern Starmer when it comes to politics! 061

shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Well they’re rejecting what he’s doing now and even if he chose to be bold going forward on Europe, he definitely has no mandate because he tied his own hands by saying he would never rejoin the EU in his lifetime! 100
shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Yes! Labour actually missed a big opportunity of not being bolder in their 24 manifesto pledges and giving themselves mandate for real change once in power when it was so clear after years of Tory scandal their vote had collapsed! 100

shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 12/05/2026Even their manifesto was Labour lite!

shabizzle.bsky.social @shabizzle.bsky.social · 11/05/2026I keep saying it but he just needs to dust off those 2020 pledges if he’s wondering what people were expecting from a Labour Gov! 2110
