Obviously no surprise that she should hold that view.
But what galls me the most is that they genuinely think that's what we're here for.
The workforce.
The worker bees collecting honey to give to those more important than ourselves.
Cash cows for the toffs.
Grim.

Obviously,all politicians think that.eg: The NHS. It wasn't for our benefit,it was to get people fit to work after the war.

I read that the Labour party is running out of funds and are £4M short. 100.000 members have left and the Unions are holding back donation money.
Angela says it is a normal fluctuation.

Still over two and a half times the membership of the Tory Party.
Those that have left are all Corbynites, so good riddance.

You win then :D

Obviously.

Yes

They all joined up during Jezza mania

After he nearly destroyed the party he claims to love, he and now all of his minions have gone

Good riddance

There's still a few of them stirring it.
He should kick them out.

Rishi doing his 'I'm a normal person' routine again today

Talking about his favourite regular meal from McDonalds

A meal that was discontinued nearly 3 years ago

Sadly they don't do a filet' o lobster, or a spicy McPheasant burger

All's well in the Labour camp then.
No funds, dwindling members and the unions not financially backing them.
No policies and no chance of ever being in power.
All good.

People said Labour were dead when Michael Foot was leader and would probably never form a government ever again

Blair got three landslides

I recall political figures saying the same about the conservatives when michael Howard was leader - the party is finished

The tories have been in power for 12 years

It goes in cycles

If you think labour will never be in power ever again - your an idiot

A pretty good energy policy, I reckon.
No increase to the cap.
A further windfall tax from energy companies.
An end to pre-pay meters being the most expensive form of electricity (the type of meters used by the poorest & most vulnerable, which also sneak round the rule that says they can't cut you off).
A commitment to on-shore and solar - which Truss wants to cut back on because it spoils the view from the golf club.
All very popular with the general public too, it seems.

Betting odds for next election are almost even Stephen. Game on.

Your thoughts on Labour policy, though?
Rather than your usual deflection.
