    Huge majority
    Popularity has dropped already, people had forgotten what a Labour government was like, taking from hard workers to give it to the shirkers, normal service will resume after your five years.

    He's fecked everything up already it's only been six weeks, it feels like years and that's even before the tax em to death budget.

    It won't be long before winter is here and the papers will find the first poor old pensioner dying from hyperthermia, because she can't afford to turn her heating on, never mind the civil servants and train drivers union bosses, Reeves, and Starmer will be happy.

    There would have been a run on the pound if they didn't do it.

    To be fair, he can do all that at least it won't affect me, not very social though is it, and will affect loads of sad old lefty knobs that obviously live on their own, there will be loads of people realising they were Turkeys voting for Christmas Choo - Choo

    And you obviously couldn't really give a stuff for the other 2 millon odd who are just above the pemsion credit cut off

    Your mealy mouthed crap about 100% fair really doesn't cut it.
    Who will get the Pension Credit, people that didn't put anything into a pension of their own, people who worked harder and tried to save even a little bit, no Winter fuel allowance for you, we take your money to reward those that don't work hard or want to save for their future, so we know why some people prefer Labour don't we!

    Favourable: 35% (-3, vs 13-14 August)
    Unfavourable: 56% (+4)

    Before the bigger tax hits, he'll crash the economy Liz Truss style if he hits Pension tax free cash and or CGT, there will be outflows from pension funds and the sell-off of buy to lets, and the shyte will really hit the fan.

    It’s like talking to a deranged narcissist with certain posters and in particular you.

    The squeeze on the hardworking public and hardworking retired people is on and you are arguing about nicknames are You Gov polls.

    Your views are irrelevant as they are so politically motivated , but suppose you get a some sort of special treatment and recognition on this platform where you wouldn’t have got elsewhere on a daily basis.

    Out of interest are you an Facebook ?

    What on earth are you talking about ?

    The Tories have lost the election

    It was obvious that the early stages ....in this case days .....would be topsy-turvy

    What we have at the moment is people who are not happy with a Labour government ....the likes of you ......jumping up and down

    You want them to fail , desperately....but it's at least 5 years

    That's the way it is

    I’m not bothered either way as I know that voters such as yourself think they have the illusion of choice when infact every party is very similar apart from the odd policy here and there. I just find it hard to comprehend that you can’t resonate with that and prefer to believe that the Labour government is different to the Tory Party or any other political system when it’s not and prefer spend hours of your day arguing. ( not just on political issues)Its tragic.

    Well you are the one who voted Tory so you clearly thought THEY were a choice

    And you are the one belting out these threads

    So you clearly are bothered

    I’ve just given you my thoughts and opinions so why don’t you just accept what I’ve just stated. Just because someone creates a thread doesn’t mean they are bothered.

    Same with the City , I can discuss issues the style of play etc but I’m not particularly bothered if they win or lose as long as I have a good day out with either my peers or my son and wife.

    I’m more exited about my son’s football team these days ,and I’ve also taken up a new sport which I’m more passionate about than the City. The rebrand probably didn’t help , plus the move to the new stadium is pretty boring for me but I can see the appeal for families.

    I am not going to accept what you have stated as your thoughts and opinions are biased against this new government

    I can't accept something I totally disagree with can I?

    Sludge, you're defending the indefensible. So much of what happened between 2010 and 2024 was indefensible and now Starmer's Labour party are being equally cruel to many people whose lifestyle's will suffer because of a Government's austerity policies - just so happens that this one is, allegedly, left of centre.

    There was no way that Labour could right all the wrongs in a swipe of the pen

    Plenty of people who benefitted from the sale of council houses at a cheap rate ......through the use of public money to incentivise .....which led to cuts for other people .....and the tory years of tax cuts ......again meaning other people and other services were cut are now chomping at the bit to have a go at starmer

    I don't buy it

    Labour didn't have to start adding to the list of wrongs by cutting cold weather payments for pensioners though did they. It's right up there with the cuts the coalition Government made to support for the disabled in terms of cruelty. I had no great expectation of this Government being a friend of those least able to support themselves in life, but they've proved themselves to be worse than I was expecting

    It's nowhere near the same

    Being old is not a disability

    And pensioners have more disposable income than disabled people
