All these things are not the same. Can any of the pearl clutchers notice the difference?

It is indeed. those who support the left, would have been screaming like stuck pigs, if the useless tories had done even a fraction of the nonsense, that labour have indulged in, in the few months they have been in office.
Short memories in here.
Nope. My memory extends beyond the 14 year of failure myth, used by labour, to give them excuses for what they have been doing, since they got into office.
It seems labour supporter's memories come to a complete halt at the 14 years mark, so that they can ignore the shambles that labour left the country in, when they last got kicked out.
The only difference is that the useless tories didn't keep squawking 22 billion black hole! or 14 year of failure soundbites,! like a demented parrot, every time someone questions why they have done what they have done.
Everyone knows it is just a myth put out by labour, intended to fool the hard of thinking.
If the useless tories had been so bad, why did the people of the UK vote them into No10, THREE times during that period?
If there WAS a 22 billion pound black hole in the country's finances, where did labour find the 6 billion pounds to give their union cronies, (like the already on 70 thousand pounds a year) train drivers an above inflation pay rise?
Where are they getting the 11.6 billion pounds they want to throw away on over seas climate change aid from?
Surely if there really was a 22 billion pound black hole in the country's finances, you would have to fill that black hole first, BEFORE splashing billions more pounds away on rewarding their union cronies, and handing out cash to over seas territories?

NP&E "Labour have been in charge four months they can't keep blaming the Conservatives".

Also NP&E "Look at the state Labour left the country in 14 years ago this is all their fault".

The statement above, ( thank you Pan Pan Pan), is absolutely spot on. Their sheer incompetence is astounding, but not only that - The new Chancellor seems to be totally deaf and blind to the comments and feedback from every conceivable business source, that are telling her the budget is an utter failure. We are heading for more inflation, and more staff being laid off etc.

How on earth can Labour think they will grow the economy with their doomed budget decisions. It'll never happen.

It's WACIST!

No. People sport unconventional looks for attention. Suggesting someone who's nearly 40 and still trying to be edgy is tragic isn't like disliking someone because they're black. Dear god. Get a grip.

People have their hair and wear clothes how they want because they like them, just as I’m presuming you do?

Hair colour. Clothes. Being "permitted" to keep a maiden name.

Proper Handmaid's Tale vibes this last couple of days.

On the contrary, it's become more like CIF.

Indeed, fashion is very subjective, presumably they've chosen the look, tried it, liked it, so that's all right by me as it should be with everyone. Assuming it's paid for out of earned and taxed income or maybe savings.

What on earth are you babbling about? Haigh is allowed to wear whatever she likes, call herself what she likes or have red hair, no one has said she shouldn't. The flip side to that is that I'm allowed to think she looks a bit tragic. It wasn't me who fired her, it was your man Sir Keir. Any comment on the sky article?

Well, at least we haven’t got a convicted criminal in parliament now.

Astonishing lack of intelligence from Starmer but I should be be surprised really.

Yes we do, she's still in Parliament. Just not in Cabinet.

Ah fair enough.

Not someone who can make important decisions is probably more apt.

Doubt you have to look that far away. Downing Street have refused to say whether anyone else in the cabinet have a criminal conviction.
