Pugwash Wrote: Just watching Question Time. Thought it would be entertaining with Morgan and Farage at each others throats in a “my tv show is bigger than your tv show” kind of way. Which turned out to be the case. But OMG, Wes Streeting. I’ve not seen much of this guy before. What a swivel-eyed pillock he is. Clueless. Just shows the lack of depth in Starmer’s team.
Yes watched QT last night but what a bunch of bellends. Morgan and Farage trying to have a go at each other Wes Streeting was unimpressive and the Vicar obviously lives in some sort of bubble. The Tory MP was no better although trying to defend 15 years of twatting things up is impossible.
Oh well will wait for the actual Manifestos come out but both saying they are not going to increase taxes but will not increase thresholds which is a real terms increase anyway. Both seem to have black holes relating to future effeciency savings which is usual bollocks when they don't know and are gambling economic growth will be better.
Labour should be honest and say if we really want to massively improve NHS and Education along with Infrastructure Investment they should raise Income Tax at higher levels of earnings and Corporation Tax and Windfall Taxes on excessive profits on Energy Companies
