    To get everything back on track, there will have to be severe austerity, which definitely won't help get the public onside. taxes are going to have to go up in some form (usually stealthily)

    Too much damage has been done, and although people do have short memories, they also want a change to see if 'The grass can be greener'

    Remember 1997 :)

    As much as I don’t like to say this, you’re not taking into account the sheer ( for want of a more apt word) stupidity and short memories of the majority of the electorate.

    If ( as seems likely) the new leader of the Conservatives reduces inflation, and then ( “ now we have got the cost of living down blah blah”) promises more money to the NHS in 2 years time, the election will be much closer than the current forecast of a Labour landslide.
    I don't think calling people stupid is ever really an effective way of changing their position. I would say I am highly likely to vote Labor next election, but of course if Rishi does do a very good job and then his manifesto looks sensible, and Keir Starmer comes out with something ridiculous I could find myself voting Tory.

    on balance though I think it has gone to far I saw something last week which I never thought I would see which made me feel very uncomfortable.

    As some may know I have got a new job and will be starting that soon hopefully, but I have been working on a zero hour contract for random various kitchens as a KP.

    one shift I saw an agency worker (I am pretty much the same as an agency worker but I dont go through agencies) taking all the food of the customers plates when it came back to the pot wash and boxing it up. we are talking random customer left overs bit grimmy huh?

    she said that she lived in a house share with a lot of hungry students. I do not believe that I know students are well known for been hard up and taking measures to survive cheaply but I dont think all the students would have been waiting around with excitement for the cold left overs from random customer plates.

    I dread to think how destitute she or her family must be for her to be resorting to that.

    people should not have to live like that.

    You may be right re “ stupidity”, I am originally from a Northern mining town, always a safe Labour seat until the last election when Boris promised to “ Get Brexit done , build 40 new hospitals and get thousands more NHS staff “,whilst closing the door to immigration.

    I’m aghast at the idiocy of them voting Tory, and now complaining the “ Levelling up” isn’t quite what they imagined….

    I will enjoy this for a short time though, I need to wait for the way of the world and iconoclast to upload their salt to bitchute.

    They are far right white supremist and I have had my spat with them before, I want to relish in their tears on Sunuk becoming PM whether he is a good leader or not is irrelevant I get to enjoy people I have clashed with who I dont like and who dont like me been upset.

    I can't trace my ancestors back 8 generations to this country (because if I go that far back none of my ancestors will be British) so they will never approve of me I want to enjoy their tears like this.

    they have not posted any updates on this to their bitchute channels this is disappointing. Latest video is clearly very anti semetic, I also do wonder how many people they go through to find the examples to spread their hate.

    Our new Prime MiniSWEAR: BBC screens 'cloud' of words the public use to describe Rishi Sunak online - not spotting it includes 'c***' and 't***'

    https://video.dailymail.co.uk/preview/mol/2022/10/25/7710615339999212299/636x382_MP4_7710615339999212299.mp4

    This is the moment the BBC accidentally screened a 'cloud' of words which the public used to describe Prime Minister Rishi Sunak online, but failed to spot it included c*** and t***. The newly crowned Prime Minister met with King Charles this morning and is in the midst of building his Cabinet which has seen plenty of old faces return including Dominic Raab, Suella Braverman and Michael Gove. But today at 3.46pm, presenter Joanna Gosling, who was stood outside No 10, asked the simple question: 'How would you describe Rishi Sunak in one word?' At this point, a 'Wordcloud' created by Savanta ComRes - a polling research company - appeared on screen which had compiled the nation's thoughts on the new Leader of the Conservative Party. The unaware reporter picked out 'rich', 'capable', 'okay', 'good' and 'clever' as the stand-outs but the graphic in fact displayed expletive words to describe Mr Sunak.

    Rishi Sunak’s new government, based on integrity, professionalism and accountability, took about twenty minutes to give a top job to a woman who resigned last week for breaking the ministerial code, all thanks to a grubby backroom deal made to secure the new prime minister’s position.

    Sunak reappointed Suella ‘Cruella Braverman‘ as Home Secretary, just six days after a breach of the ministerial code saw her jeopardise secure government information by sending it via a private email.

    A government spokesperson explained the decision, telling us, “In this new era of integrity and accountability we feel it’s important to reward people who made secret deals in quiet corners of parliament to back Rishi for prime minister.

    “Yes, on the one hand, she was forced to resign from one of the great offices of state for what is essentially incompetence, but on the other hand she promised to back Rishi in the leadership election, so it’s swings and roundabouts.

    “If there is one thing that defines the Tory party, it’s our ability to reward our mates for doing us favours in the dark, all while claiming to be the party of integrity.

    “Yes, of course the voters will fall for it – where have you been for the last ten years?”

    Think this sums up the state of this country.

    Nice to see a band actually making social comment. This is Kid Kapichi's "New England"

    Enjoyed a previous song of theirs-"Party at Number 10"

    Altogether now:-

    "You ain't shut them out. You just locked us in"
