I have watched it , we as a collective will have to pay for it? ..well by the same token and for balance that goes equally for tax cuts to business and NI insurance, things don't cost less and public services aren't as necessary if some pay less... the money has to come from somewhere, we end up paying somewhere down the line.

it are pretty good reasons to vote labour


and when brexit has caused nothing but pain in the arse for the last 3 (nearly 4 years) it should either be sorted asap with a deal, or being revoked and then trying to have more serious input in the EU, and being more respected by the rest of europe

Id like to hope he can yes of course. Look at the alternative, it might seem radical what he's proposing but look at what we have... skeleton services, crime, poverty and homelessness.I say it's a brave new world, even if it does smack of the 70s who cares?

They're not all the same though. You can say you don't care about childhood poverty, food banks, and the decimation of industry in this country, and you're voting for another reason altogether, but saying they're all the same so **** it, is flat out wrong.

the same can be said about the Tories then, and about literally any political party


and this coming from someone anti-labour doesn't surprise me at all, just a silly attempt at bringing labour down

Sorry yes should've said royal mail, why hasn't he the chance? Give him the chance.
What's the point of being so peed off with your lot in life re your job. Then, when theres someone saying they'll make it better ignoring them?...it makes no sense.

I have no problem with conservative values and the sociological perspective they had, the new right. It was all family values, law and order, and living within your means.
This bastardisation we have on the tory benches are not those conservatives. They are the mugwai fed after midnight of the right wing. Maybe the people still voting conservative are holding onto the old values... :/

Oh I agree completely, if they really do lay off staff due to minimum wage rise, or having to pay higher taxes, they totally deserve to lose all their customers.

I'm not saying that minimum wage shouldn't be raised, I'm saying it's likely there'll be consequences for the employees and/or customers.

I agree Kizzy the trouble is, and this is where I agree with LT, that all these promises (on all sides) will all be broken or at best be postponed to some distant future. Especially all these ideas from Labour because they will waste at least another year on Brexit before getting to any of these fantastic proposals!

I hate to break it to you, but even if BJ gets his deal through by the end of next year, there will then be 5-10 years of trade negotiations dealing with the fallout of brexit, so they won't get anything done.

There is no quick fix or #getbrexitdone.
