I agree. She's a nutcase if she actually believes that. 😲

They are making it very open and plain that they are funded by fossil fuel companies. Never, ever vote Conservative again.

In what way do you think that the EU is failing? Any of the countries that were considering leaving quickly changed their minds when they saw the calamity it caused to this country. Why would you turn down the prospect of a 6% to 8% rise in GDP?

Is it because the media want it to be true?

They have an interesting name, Your Party. Who's party do they actually mean? So far, I'm not sure that they mean a cooperative type members party. Too many competing egos at the top.

I wrote on another thread that that policy is a dud. They haven't thought it through, and I really believe that it will be electoral suicide for them. So I hope they double down on it.👍

Who or what has the government borrowed £3tn from? I think 25% of the so-called debt is owed by the BoE to the BoE so that's not really a debt, is it?

What I don't understand is why they think that will be a vote winning idea. Surely, it will do the opposite?

I'm on PIP. I have cancer. I would be very happy not to have cancer and therefore not get PIP. I'm not old enough to get the state pension.

The green party is more democratic than most political parties. The members voted that policy as the most prescient and Polanski just has to abide by that vote.

It's a sensible thing to demand, but it will get nowhere. The gov't has been captured by Isreali interests and despite the Foreign Secretary's action, they will not go farther than that.

I really hope he tells them that the BoE will no longer pay them interest on the funds it gave them as a safety net. Or, he gets the Met Police to lock the bastards up.

Polanski is Jewish, you know that, right? Are you saying he hates himself?

I would be surprised if the EU readmitted the UK with the facists in Reform Ltd still polling quite highly. I wouldn't if I was them.

Perhaps you should review your respondents. You might have too many wealthy people in your panel who approve of Badenough's disgustingly biased policies. Just a suggestion.

Looking at that poster's profile, it's a right-wing nutjob in my humble opinion.

I hope he wibs. Just because it will shock the Labour Party government and may push Burnham farther left in his policies.

What will be interesting will be the audience numbers. That will show how popular the Tories now are.

Wow! The right-wing is actually down 22.8% if you add in the looney Tory vote too. Is this country finally waking up to the reality of Reform Ltd? Or is the rise of Restore partly responsible for the collapse in Reform?

I'm sure it plays a big part in radicalisation. The ULEZ scheme has improved the lives of people inside the zone, especially young kids who's lungs are still developing.

Yes, after all the Tories cancelled all water company debts just before they privatised them. So a precedent has been set.👍

Tim 🌱☕️🏉🏏☀️🌧 @timash.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
The fiscal deadlock is entirely imaginary. We have a FIAT currency and the BoE issues it on demand. The gov't should use the BoE to stimulate the economy. Raise the base tax rate to £15k, pay for it by taxing capital gains @ the same rate as income tax is paid. #TaxTheRich

Tim 🌱☕️🏉🏏☀️🌧 @timash.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
Don't they look at the polls? The polls have shown for a long time that a majority realise that leaving the EU has impoverished most people, and that rejoining will invigorate the economy. After all, if it's growth they want, there's 6% to 8% to be regained by rejoining. It's a no brainer.🤷‍♂️

Tories promise everything but deliver only stuff that benefits their wealthy donors. Never vote Tory again.

I like his presentation style and the things he says he stands for. The real test though, is whether he implements the changes from neoliberalism he talks about. We can't wait until the next GE for real change to benefit ordinary.

What the government can do is nationalise it and ignore the debt. After all, when the water services were privatised all their debts were wiped out just prior to the sale. So why not return the favour?

My son has just had solar panels and a battery installed free of charge to him. I don't know if that scheme was started under the last Tories or Starmer's Labour government, but whichever it was deserves our thanks. 👍

Only if he carries out a lot if what he says he wants to do. Quickly. Use the power of our FIAT currency to transform the lives of ordinary people. There's plenty of extra tax that can be raised too, without hurting ordinary people.

I do believe that the majority of the population don't approve of the PA ban. I think the government know it too, but they are too proud (arrogant) to reverse the ban. They don't mind black-clad hooligans blocking ports, though.🤔
