And the care of the elderly , vulnerable

Its no good protecting the country from putin if millions of citizens starve to death

.

Just as it’s no good millions of citizens living in a utopia that Putin can just walk in and take over.
It’s a fine balance.

I thought you were Mystic Meg (on a fence) not Organ Morgan. He was more Walter Mitty (in a bunker)!

Mind you, it was a double act of much unintended comedy.

Times are tough because of the people you and Rjk tactically voted into power!

Very true , this is probably the worst government in living memory. I wonder who’s responsible for their decision making as the majority of their policies have ever made sense and there has been u turn after u turn.

They apparently plan to produce their Defence Investment Plan tomorrow when all MP's will have gone home.

So no chance for a discussion in Parliament

I have just seen the Speakers reaction to this and the word incandescent springs to mind.

'Disgrace' and 'Appalling' are a couple of the words used

I saw him tell the Government off in the last parliament but I have never seen him so angry and upset before

Why are you ignoring Red Ed's massive climate expenditure and the rush towards giant data centres that will consume huge amounts of energy.

Well I am not going to disagree with that and its a positive from you

Well done

We’ve had basically the same policies in the UK for sixteen years - austerity introduced to allegedly pay for the financial havoc wrought by greedy bankers. More than a decade and a half later, it’s clear austerity hasn’t worked and all we’ve got is an uglier country where the gap between richest and poorest grows ever wider.

Its all bollocks isnt it ?

Increase taxation towards defence spending ......and drop the ridulous scare story driven figures wanted by the army chiefs and tories ( who screwed up funding in the first place )

Look at cuts across the board in all departments to fund any increased spending





The triple lock is out of control if any spending needs slashing , big time .........







50 percent of welfare spending from DWP is on funding triple lock nonsense and other pensioner expenditure

Triple lock has cost 3 times more than was expected



PIP which aimed to replace Incapacity Benefit ....brought in by Maggie Thatcher ......was also brought in by the conservatives .....along with ESA ......these were supposed to make huge savings ...only 10 percent of those savings on the old benefits have happened

Its all very well stamping feet but the reality is very different from kemi badenoch mouthing off in the HOC ......

You didn't mind the elderly freezing to death when your Labour party cut the heating allowance. If memory serves me right you said pensioners didn't need it.
