Not one specific policy, just the direction of travel. Cancelling infrastructure projects, targeting welfare, keeping the narrative on "tough decisions" departmental cuts. So far it's just more of the same Hopefully it changes in the future, the sooner the better

If this were Tory enacted policy everybody would be rightly criticising it, but because it's Labour we have to suck it up? I'm glad the Tories got booted, I'm not saying they're all the same and Labour are much better on not being totally corrupt and racist. I still think that their economic strategy is wrong and I don't think it's out of place for me to say it. The 28billion green investment would have been transformational for the country, and the right thing to do, to borrow a phrase. As it is the country is just going to get worse, just possibly at a slower rate We should expect and demand more

@PaddockLad Just got myself tickets for this should be a good night

The good news is it just gets better as they get into it. I'm on my second go round after finishing the whole thing

I approve of this call-back

Impossible as he feels no shame the grifting cunt. hopefully he ends up locked up or deported

Yep thats one. I'm quick enough to criticise Starmer, but credit where credit's due Normal service will resume shortly

I saw a twitter thread this morning which I now can't find but it persuaded me that Starmer is handling this well. In response to why haven't the police been more aggressive or why aren't the army on the streets its because that would escalate the situation and only have the effect of making martyrs/heroes out of the rioters. Whereas arresting them and handing out severe sentences across the board will prove a bigger deterrent. Hope it's right and these idiots start to think twice when they see the repercussions they will face

Eurosport is so much better

When I was born Kon Tiki by the Shadows was No.1 and the Stones hadn't even formed

Silver and a bronze. Another sport I am suddenly an expert on

I know where you are coming from but not making the argument for Europe and immigration has lead us to the place we are now in. We have basically surrendered the policy position to the rabid right wing and the hate mob. I may be cynical but I still believe the vast majority of people in this country are repulsed by the current behaviour, and rejoin is miles ahead in the polls, even with nobody putting forward its merits. I do believe Starmer is a decent bloke, and is an efficient technocrat, but I agree he probably doesn't have the oratory skills to win the argument. Just wish he would try, he's basically untouchable for 5 years and the press will hammer him no matter what

I agree with every single word of this, and I really hate to be that guy again, but I wish Starmer would put this argument. We all know it's true, and his chances of being successful without making it shrink horribly

I know it's bad form to criticize Labour, but article sums up my misgivings really well https://www.theguardian.com/business/article/2024/aug/04/britain-didnt-vote-labour-just-to-get-a-new-iron-chancellor Its not by Owen Jones btw

You shouldn't buy a player off the back of a decent World Cup or Euros Never works out. Having said that I'm with Gloomy on this. Last season we scored plenty but shipped loads. Let's get the defence sorted
