UK Politics Thread

Amazing that Labour and the Tories refuse to do the right thing then have the temerity to denounce an opportunist like George when he takes advantage of it.

Here in TT we have a consultant from the UK. I was talking to her about the next election.

Seems she’s voting Labour by default not because she likes Keir but cause there’s no alternative to the two parties. She voted Lib Dem in past but can’t due to the coalition with Cameron

Is that how the vibe is these days? Are the polls “right”?

The polls are right. Tories are gonna get massacred. Starmer is now more to the right than centre but people will hold their noses and vote for him.

Yeah Labour will win easy the problem is Starmer is Conservative Light and not true Labour

Lib Dems fukked themselves when they went in bed with the Cons, lost 90% of their voters

His videos are nice and dry, no filler if a little pessimistic

That regional inequality though

they're seriously talking about cutting taxes?

I think increasing NI contributions was quite a punitive way to increase the tax take (was that when Sunak was chancellor? It feels like so long ago) so a cut there is kind of good, though they get a lot more from the frozen thresholds (4:32 in the video, though it came out just before the Budget)

All that work to accommodate and absorb the Farage and British First types, and the Tories are still losing massive votes to Reform UK.

[SCORCH]
