To the UK Labour Party. What a joke they are πŸ˜‚

Haven’t got time to list all their disasters so far, but the latest is the P&O £1Bn investment fiasco where the Transport Minister Louise Haige and the Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner publicly slagged off P&O who are now threatening to pull out of the deal forcing Starmer to publicly rebuke his Transport Minister (he has decided not to take on the Ginger Growler (Rayner) in public) and state that her comments are “not the position of the Government”.

Err… she IS part of the government and head of transport matey!

What a clueless bunch of clowns. Only another 5 years of this shatshow 🀦‍♂️

Ah yes P&O the ‘fire and hire’ poster boys, if that deal involved public money I hope it’s been torpedoed to the bottom of the channel. There will be nothing in it for British workers anyway. P&O prefer smuggling in workers from Indonesia and paying them Indonesian wage rate.

Oh yes , thank goodness two Labour gob-aches went rogue in the media to save us from a billion pound port investment πŸ˜‚

You happy with your gang in number 10 then, are you one of the 25% of the people who voted Labour who still think they are doing a good job?

Why did Tories lose by a landslide? Was it because they were the better party?

All your posts imply voting Labor was the wrong choice, when that couldn't be farther from the truth. Fourteen years of conservative rule convinced voters Tories need to go.

No matter how bad Labor is doing, voters agreed by a WIDE margin they were the lesser of two evils.

So stop implying a mistake was made by voting Labor instead Tory. Labor has to try and clean up almost two decades of Tory dung heaps.

Well 14 years actually.

A recent poll by top polster yougov shows that only 1 in 4 people who voted Labour (it’s got a U in it by the way) are happy with them. Everyone else who didn’t vote for them were already unhappy with them, despite their “loveless landslide”.

But no one could have predicted this 100 day shatshow. Still, it’s fun to watch in a train wreck movie sort of way.

You're not getting the point.

For years, you've never said a word about the government until Labor won. To be so vocal now after being silent on the the embarrassment of Boris and Truss, May's inability to to craft a decent Brexit deal, so on and so forth.

Being vocal now means that you intend to be partisan instead of object. This is tiresome; we get enough of this from American conservatives. Discussing UK politics should be a refreshing change but it's more of the same things you non-Americans despites about U.S. politics; misinformation, propaganda, etc.

For example: you made a post falsely accusing Labor of "hard-left socialism" while being unable to provide even one instance of it. You also misrepresented fuel payment cuts by falsely implying lower-income elders would be affected.

Another thread: you accused Labor of a "nanny state". Why? Because they said they'd "look" into a matter about ticket prices. That was it. No threats were made, no criticisms offered, just a statement they'd look. This alone was enough for you to go into an unhinged rant about a "nanny state" as if Labor was running a dictatorship. Labor took no action regarding ticket prices, making your rant took even more idiotic.

Now on this thread, you make silly claims like one person's opinion being equal to the whole government sharing that opinion. In democratic society, that's a stupid claim to make. Lee Anderson said London's Muslim mayor gave control to radical Islamists; by your logic, that was the official position of the government?

I'm just so sick of these brain-dead conservative tactics. It seems you're all the same no matter what country you're from; whether from New Zealand like Wajoma, South America like Rajk, the UK like yourself, or from the U.S., you all sound the same. Your only purpose in this forum is spread propaganda and ignore the failings of your own side.

I think you’re just upset that that this shower of clowns call themselves a “socialist party” and their first 100 days has been an utter disaster.

So no acknowledgement of your multiple false, uniformed statements, just more partisan preening.

Conservative tactic #342: pretend actions you're now embarrassed about never happened.

Regarding your OP, stating a transport minister's words represents the whole government is like stating Lee Anderson's bigoted statements represented the whole government. More dumb arguments that you'll deny you ever said in the future.

I’ve said no such thing.

You seem to do this when you’re upset about something; definitions of socialism for an example.

The anti-socialism, anti-immigration, anti-Muslim, anti-Labor poster claims he's not conservative.

Add "conservative" to the growing list of words you don't understand, like "socialism", "evidence" and "nanny state".

You capitalised “Conservative” which indicates the Conservative Party.

Try to calm yourself a little.

It was the first word of the sentence, per the rules of English grammar.
