Now thankfully at least you come up with reasoned and strong points which is not surprising as you generally do make very valid points.

I am totally dismayed with the Labour government at present and frankly I wish as to all Parties, that they'd just put income tax up.
I think the Country would more, although begrudgingly, accept that, than the winter fuel allowance wrong action.
Plus on the welfare issue, the making of qualifying for PIP much harder.

Members of Labour and Labour MPs are not happy at all with the changes to PIP eligibility.
So who knows if that may yet get changed.

Indeed, you are right, Labour did intend to end the Hotels being used, which may or may not come about but it was never going to happen in only months.
However I think Labour is in as much difficulty on that one as the Cons found themselves too.
I personally have never believed there was a quick fix.

I'm not going to do what Reform does, and virtually only scapegoat those Human beings coming from other countries and of other cultures too.
They're not just numbers but are human beings too.

Also, to end, I'm not married or have children but I know what I'd like to see hopefully and eventually for members of my much younger family and for their futures.
You have children and you have every right to be angry at the failing across the board of the last decades as to the Country and as to your hopes for your family too.
That's is understandable and wholly commendable.

I just don't blame the human beings from other Countries and of other cultures.
I blame the system and I too would hold Labour responsible for not acting more quickly.

I was pleased to read your segment on Reform.
Speaking for myself, I have no time for Farage and Reform.
I don't and never have believed in my life thus far, that blaming others coming here for the failings of this Country and creating division against them is fair at all.

I'll certainly however take on board other things you've said there in your response to me as well.
I am far from happy with the Labour government so far.
In fact I don't think I've ever been so disillusioned with politics as I am now.
However there's no answer in the Reform Party in my own view, other than becoming prejudiced and being more divisive and intolerant towards other human beings who are seen by the Reform lot as not being desirables for the UK.
I think that's a horrible rhetoric to support, just speaking for myself obviously.

Thank you for your response Cherie.
