When I see that smarmy tosser on BBC Breakfast with his Union Jack flag behind him together with his red briefcase open with files poking out, but it hasn't moved for the last year, it just proves how full of shite this lot are.

Got to say I don't like him, but not because he leaves his briefcase open and has a flag in the background..

What do you want him to say? He says he understands.
What do you want him to do? The welfare bill in the UK has never been more generous, especially considering furlough

Genuinely now, to distinguish this from just being a hate-filled post, what do you want?

What do you want a government to do, I’ll tell you what! Look after the most vulnerable in society not tax them to the hilt whilst food prices, gas and every other bill is going up. Have a look around you, the country is absolutely fecked.

Apart perhaps from Attlee's 1945 government, which party of either persuasion has ever looked after the most vulnerable satisfactorily? Taxing the to the hilt is slightly over the top.

I agree that the should do something to lessen the effect of removing the £20 temporary increase in Universal Credit either by making it permanent or adjusting it in some way ( the taper possibly)

Look at poverty rates since the tories have come to power, look at wages compared to other countries over the past 10 years, look at housing,energy and food costs.

We want a government that actually helps the average person and not just their billionaire mates. We want them to actually act and not just say they care (they obviously don't give a shit).

I'd love to see you try and explain how the welfare bill has never been more generous. The whole country is ****ed.

Pennies;

In 2020/21 the UK government is expected to spend approximately 212 billion British pounds on benefits, an increase of over 20 million pounds when compared with the previous .

Plus 400 billion Covid cost .

Brexit Brexit Brexit...................
One food bank is one too many
Fuel prices going through the roof
No trade deals
NHS on its knees £350 million a week
Lack of petrol, food, basically anything imported being blamed on the lack of lorry drivers is laughable
Country is on its knees but hang on let's take that £20 a week off everyone that maybe needs it
Feck um should be their new campaign slogan ................
Yet some will think they are talking about someone else .....
Until it starts and will start affecting them

Food Banks are nothing to do with Brexit
Fuel prices aren't Brexit
There have been Trade deals but to be fair they have mainly been continuations of the ones other countries had with the EU. And their value hasn't to date been massive.
NHS has had more money with more to come. It is never enough, however.
What lack of petrol. Are you saying that Brexit has affected the supply of petrol coming in to the country?
I agree that decreasing Universal Credit by £20would be a mistake

But you do

You are like a turkey voting for Xmas
