[@sarutochigcp937]

Yeah, I like him, and definitely do not enjoy listening to Tory MPs talk, but he's not exactly being challenged by an interviewer who's on the other end of the political spectrum, and he's not in politics, so it's a lot easier to answer the questions honestly and completely.

Maybe if trickle down happened real trickle down for the common good for all workers shared in the wealth they helped to bring about none of this would be happening!

Thank you for your interesting reply , I will not disagree with you however I will say this , because brexit was a giant leap into the dark people didn't understand how to react how to process the impending outcome of brexit . The likes of lynch , Dempsey , even Corbyn and other people of progressive politics thought brexit would be a way of going back to UK politics pre EU , i.e. Left was left and right was right , and none of this neoliberalism which we see today . Alas this thought was miguided and we as a nation have and are paying the costs of the biggest disastrous decision in British political history .

[@roddychristodoulou9111]

The best way I can put it is this , if you can define the poor , the needy , people using food banks , people who are in work poverty , the homeless , I could go on and on but I think you get the picture , well they would be the working class . And if the Tories stay in power we will end up with 1% elites owning 50% of the wealth of the nation , then the rest of us could be defined as the working class .

[@roddychristodoulou9111]

I know exactly what your saying but I still see the labor party as the lesser of the two evils , and under the circumstances that we find ourselves in we must get rid of the Tories at any cost and I mean any cost . On sky news this morning some political pundits said the lunatics have taken over the Tory party judging by the budget and city analyst have said something similar , did you know by the time the next election comes round we could find ourselves in death spiral with this suicide brand of politics . Can you not see the ERG have hijacked the Tory party and miss trust is just their puppet , but please don't say there is no credible alternative because labour can't be any worse than this , you remind me of my dad who used to say the same thing and he allowed himself to become a product of the MSM supporting the Tories even though my dad was working class , please don't do the same thing .

Put into simple terms, the economy is f*cked and he explained why. Billions being paid to shareholders that hold the money in off shore bank accounts. Billions of pounds that doesn't pay tax in the UK. If you paid that money to British workers, 20% would automatically go to the treasury to pay for schools, hospitals and services, etc. Then the National Insurance contributions would be taken. Even more would be paid in VAT with virtually everything the workers buy. Add to that the tax on alcohol and tobacco and over half of the wage increase would flow back into the economy via taxes. Billions of pounds to stimulate a failing economy. But the government prefer that the large shareholders get the money instead because they are the ones who fund the Conservative Party.

Don't hold your breath that Travellian will be better than Shapps.

[@pamelagartner3759]

You’re right. I’ve seen her in videos of cross-Party committee meetings when she was totally unable to answer questions about international trade. She’s one of those MPs who speaks gobbledygook

[@lindacurrie8817]

If not make no difference unions will try to negotiate can do no more than that. If latter does not work then battle on no other option.

[@eugenenoonan1886]

Trevellyn starved one and a half million Irish 1845.genocide.

[@eugenenoonan1886]

Trevellyn a name reviled in Ireland.Look up 5he history.

[@operamachine8474]

Love him... clear and straightforward about the mess the UK is in

[@tanseygreen]

Please stop calling it a cost of living crisis it's a conservative policy crisis.

[@stormytempest6521]

EDDIE SEEMS LIKE A GOOD MAN.

[@5ynthesizerpatel]

Never let this bunch forget that Thatcher introduced a windfall tax - TWICE

[@eileencorcoran3057]

Eddie is eloquent

[@afgunst4427]

Eddie Dempsey for PM

[@Jaded-Wanderer]

This man, Eddie Dempsey, is a fucking hero.

[@candacelee969]

Thank you Mr.Dempsy for your honesty. I hope you gain some ground.

[@kingsarms2636]

This guy makes absolute sense. I hope he can make waves. The country needs more like him.

[@Redpilled66]

If Dempsey and Lynch started a new workers political party I would vote for them.

[@laurieharper1526]

Truss didn't exactly have a bottomless well of talent to draw from when appointing a cabinet, did she? 😁

[@neilmccarty944]

and usual UK Rules apply..... never employ anyone cleverer than you. So the bar is set pretty damn low

[@laetitialogan2002]

London Irish should be very proud..

[@domclark-j1b]

The RMT need to stop holding the public to ransome. They need to scrap their antiquated practices and het back to work. Unused ticket offices need to be closed and then maybe employers can make the railways viable. The new union legislation will be a help in that direction.

[@alfiecdyson]

I wish this man was prime minister

[@LeornianCyng]

Eddie Dempsey is well spoken, well mannered and wants to make the lives of ever better.

[@stinkfoot9776]

Keep it going Eddie.Truss is full on ready to have a row. Her policies are not going to help. Thank goodness you are there fella.Realism and truth needs to be elevated to being the norm in media.

[@geraldinetynan1654]

yes,yes, yes

[@trevm1268]

More facts, truths & determination to fight FOR the people than I have ever heard from the Tories in over 12yrs in office. We need people like Eddie & Mick to galvanise the workers & others in the UK. The divisions created by the Tories can be healed but we will need strong, honest leadership. I happily offer my support for those striking & fighting for fair pay & conditions for all.

[@peterah7957]

I think many middle class tory voters have had enough also of this lot!

[@richardsmallwood7940]

Go Eddie, just keep saying as it is, hit the greedy hard! 👍👍👍

[@Mikebuster]

we need a REAL labour party. not controlled opposition.

[@theo610]

Nice1 mate

[@DianaSwan]

Totally got my support

[@sharonwashington8150]

We need MORE of the likes of YOU!

[@lizfuller400]

You give me hope. Will support anyway I can. 12 years of austerity is enough especially when the Tories are cashing in on our poverty. Think of the homeless, the underpaid workers, the charities who need our help, and yet I am getting emails to help people in Pakistan, sorry as I am for them, but animal welfare, how much money do they think I have.

[@elche7367]

Eddie looks like Saul Canelo Alverez and he sure packs a punch like Canelo.

[@jamescarr5818]

didn't know this was on or I would have been there the disadvantages of being banned from social media

[@DavidHeffron78]

Good man.

[@sandydobbie1255]

Well said Eddie the truth hurts !!!

[@tammailer6054]

Eddie Dempsey is a breath of fresh air. I wish there were more like him in the Labour and trade union movement.

[@Nonpartisanmusic]

The market can't run trains and keep people warm in winter...

[@BaronVonGreenback1882]

Who is this interviewer, she asks, "why is it that workers who are coming to the meetings," I bet she was top of her class !

[@kaz555]

No one should have to choose between heating and eating.
