That's my plan I think. But still I've never known this country to have such a poor choice of leaders to pick from.Then ignore the nationwide picture and vote for whoever's likely to make the best MP and make the biggest positive difference to your local constituency.
Maybe people have got concerns other than immigration?That Fiona Bruce debate was one sided with lame questions.
Nobody has yet asked Starmer what he's intending to do with pensions, but we all know the answer is that he'll tax them.
Nobody has yet asked Rishi what the tax payers money sent to France is actually funding in relation to stopping the boats coming over.
I cannot understand why Rishi called a GE prior to September when he's saying flights are ready to go. Why didn't he wait and prove that. Why didn't he remove thousands of immigrants prior to announcing the GE.
Why hasn't anyone asked where all these new immigrants are being kept now. What happens when over 800 arrive in one day alone.
The last I heard was that Vietnamese people are the majority arriving here.
Because the policy is a likely failure from multiple angles and they were never serious about actually implementing it, but I’m sure their friends benefitted from all the contracts being soldI cannot understand why Rishi called a GE prior to September when he's saying flights are ready to go. Why didn't he wait and prove that. Why didn't he remove thousands of immigrants prior to announcing the GE.
I think this is the thing. Some people tend to get so caught up in one issue that they forget other issues exist.Maybe people have got concerns other than immigration?
I WANT Starmer to be boring. I would very much like boring, competent people in government.For me this election is getting rid of the Tories and getting back to a boring normal government. We shouldn't be this obsessed with what's going on and it shouldn't be so combative all the time. It makes me laugh people say Starmer is boring and goes on too much in his answers. Life is bloody complicated - you shouldn't be able to solve a big issue with a four word soundbite.

Is this referring to him allegedly not paying tax on his 1 million pound pension or something? I saw a screenshot of this on Twitter a few weeks ago and I didn’t really understand it. Wish I could find it again and try and work out what’s going on.articles. I know that Starmer has his own protected privileges

A lot of this when it comes to asylum is linked to long processing times for asylum applicationsMy second point is related to the extremely high number of people arriving in this country. The reason we should all be concerned is because they cost us money to stay here, we pay them, put a roof over their heads and feed them. If they're ill then they take up hospital beds, when the NHS is already struggling to cope. If they break the law, then they take up space in our prisons that are already overcrowded.
I do think it’s time for change, and there will be change.I have a huge issue with two main points. One being Starmer refusing to explain his plans for tax. He only repeats that he won't put up taxes for working people, but never talks about pensions, inheritance tax, car tax, fuel tax, etc. And I don't believe he should interfere with schools. He seems to have a gripe with anyone who manages to save their money, apart from himself.
The most interesting thing about him was his Machiavellin scheming to get into number 10.find Rishi to be extremely boring as a leader, especially as we have the likes of Boris to compare him to personality wise, but the Tory voters don’t care much about that.
Wasn't that due to covid though?I'm not sure where they all stand now but the Tories also introduced a policy to not process asylum applications at all at one point, so increasing the backlog more and more
Is this the pension scheme that David Cameron legislated for? So the tories are criticising him for a pension that they themselves gave to him?Yep. I'm just looking again. I didn't know it had been on Twitter. It's been elsewhere too.
Something here.
Sir Keir Starmer criticised over tax free pension scheme
Labour defends its leader's pension arrangements against Conservative accusations of hypocrisy.www.bbc.com
It was linked to the one of the new legislations, think this covers it:Wasn't that due to covid though?
I think he called it early because he has given up and wants to enjoy the summer.That Fiona Bruce debate was one sided with lame questions.

People will vote Reform because they agree with the one policy but won't even consider Labor, LD, Green because they disagree with one policy.I think this is the thing. Some people tend to get so caught up in one issue that they forget other issues exist.
Do we all know that Starmer is going to tax pensions? Pensions are already taxed as more and more pensioners are moving into the tax bracket thanks to the Tory freezing of the tax bands.That Fiona Bruce debate was one sided with lame questions.

Starmer has been working with world leaders for some time in preparation for becoming PM and looks a lot more at ease with them than Sunak. Sunak wouldn’t know an ordinary working person if he fell over one in the street. Starmer knows about the problems of us plebs because he has spent the last 4.5 years travelling the country and listening to the issues we all have.Well that was two hours of my life I'm never getting back. I still don't know who to vote for. I just cànt stand Rishi, I don't see Kier as a good leader and Ed can't answer a proper question. None of them have what we need. I don't see any of them fitting in at the G7 or world stage anywhere.
