Right-wing politicians seem perfectly happy to inflict cruelty as a means to subjugate scapegoats, increase their own control & inflate their own personal wealth. Beware those that promote these ideologies... ...for it reveals how little they value your rights...or your freedom

Right-wing politicians are in the pockets of the wealthy. They do as they're paid to do by cutting public services, subsidising low wages with UC, & lowering taxes for the rich. In return, we subsidie their greed with revenue syphoned to tax avoiding companies through crony contracts for donors.

Most companies making vast profits also pay their staff pitiful wages. Their staff end up claiming Universal Credit in order to survive. UC is funded from taxation which the greedy companies (& wealthy tax avoiders) avoid paying. Which means we're subsidising greedy parasites that buy politicians

Elected because Tories had created a shambles by neglecting everything they couldn't cut or steal, Labour inherited debt & failure. So instead of making lives better, they've tried, & failed, to be more Tory than the Tories. ...Maybe it's time Labour were the Labour we wanted when we elected them.

Farage: We Brexiters don't want the UK to make deals with the forins... Also Farage: Why won't the forins make deals with us... I guess being a two faced grifter makes it easy for Farage to look both ways, hold opposing viewpoints, & simultaneously insist both are his position.

Reform highlight the vast cost of UC & draw attention to proposals to cut it from some claimants, but... They don't mention that many need to claim while working full time just to afford food. That's because many businesses (& Tory/Reform donors) avoid tax & pay minimum wage to increase profits.

To decide whether a politician is trustworthy, ask yourself, do they serve the public interest or their own self interest.

Farage is a millionaire. He was a city trader from a public school before politics. He supported the fascist National Front at Uni. Every 'solution' he's backed (Truss, Brexit, ending free healthcare, cutting public services, low taxes for the rich) are politically disasterous for the UK.

Products were locally made until the wealthy realised they'd make more money if made cheaper abroad & sold for the same price. That destroyed local jobs. Now the wealthy object to cost of the crisis their greed caused & demand right-wing governments cut their taxes & protect their grubby profits.

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

Protectionist economic policies rarely protect the consumer & never benefit those least able to bear the increased cost. Conversely, as the economic hardship grows, bankruptcies rise & poverty escalates, the greedy billionaires that enacted the policies make a killing.

The fundamental reason for Brexit was tax avoidance by the rich. Brexit let the ultra rich evade new EU tax laws. It also lets Tory created Freeports & SEZs water down employment rights, syphon profits to billionaires & avoid paying tax. Shockingly, Labour seem OK with that stupid idea.

Ministerial pensions & expenses are a drain on the treasury. So, if MPs need to take money from the poor, MPs pensions, salaries & expenses should also be cut. Cut by the same percentage for all future, current & former MPs. When MPs cut public spending, their own rewards should be cut in line.
