A political thread 😱 🙈 🙉

Johnson Election pledges to date.

Get Brexit done ( How is that going? NI Protocol, GFA, divorce payment, trade, fisheries, haulage drivers, agricultural workers, builders )
Pension triple lock 🔒 🔒 🔒
Free TV licences for over 75’s-
No privatisation of NHS, this should mean no Virgin Health, no US control of surgeries, no opening up the NHS to private companies.
Upgrading 20 hospitals, BUILDING 40 new ones!
20,000 more police? 21,000 doctors, 17,000 nurses!

Corporation Tax down - JOB DONE ✔️

Deliver at least another million homes in the next five years, making further progress towards the target of 300,000 new houses a year by the mid-2020s.

The Tories’ record on delivering starter homes is also not good. Earlier this month a report from the National Audit Office found that a pledge to build 200,000 new starter homes for first time buyers had failed to produce a single property. Oh, and in the small print, they seem to be only promising 19,000 a year.

Sorry CJJ2 but all bets were off due to the deadly virus and changed policies needed to get our vaccines first.
 
I see George Galloway is going to court regarding election rigging in Batley and Spen. Sounds very similar to what happened across the pond with thousands of votes turning up in the middle of the night in bin bags from private, unmarked vehicles. It's become the MO of the left now. They've got away with it once on a massive scale so now no election will be fair. All you need is the media onside to turn a blind eye and obfuscate matters and you're away.
 
The economic fact is that (usually), the bigger the organisation, the more inefficient it is. The one-man band is the most efficient economic unit, and it gets less efficient the more labour it takes on. The country’s biggest employer by far, is the NHS, and wonderful as it is, it is immensely inefficient. And like the nationalised industries before it, the city councils and government departments, one often gets the feeling that they are being run for the benefit of those who run them, not the taxpayers who wish or need to use their services.
I made several trips behind the iron curtain and also remember the utter shambles that were British Rail, the GPO (telephone “service”), and the British Steel Corporation.
How anyone who saw the situation in the Warsaw Pact countries or lived through the sixties and seventies in this country, can think that nationalisation is a good idea, is beyond me.
It would be like Sheffield Council running virtually every aspect of your life and deciding “what was best” for you.
It’s a terrifying thought!

SCC has never been able to run a fucking bath.
 
Not a good day for Hallam's less than finest. Don't go dropping the soap Jared lad.

And we all thought Nick Clegg was always going to be the biggest **** who represented Hallam.

His one honourable act as an MP was turning up to the Sunday TV round having drunk a bottle of vodka. Another one like Nadia Whitthome. Hopeless and useless, plays the mental health card while trousering an £80k salary for doing f-all...
