Labour Govt Has Power To Decide

To make Britain great again, we need to deal with errors of the past. Corruption and inequality has been building in British politics since Thatcher. This Labour govt has the power and mandate to change Britain returns to being a country of “Good Chaps”.
Simon Kuper’s interview with ‪@ListenToTimesRadio‬ about his new book makes for compelling viewing.

It's worse than corruption, I think we're talking a traitor,that visit to see KGB agent Lebedev after the NATO conference at a drunken party in Italy and the subsequent installation of Lebedev's son into the House of Lords asks questions so massive that I think too many people in authority are frightened to ask because of the enormity of what it will uncover.

[@ronventy798]

Us Australians totally disagree so sorry miss lizzie

[@ollieisaninja]

We should never stop investigating the other half. I urge anyone interested to look at articles about Boris's trip to Italy in late 2018 when he met Alexander & Evgeny Lebvedev. The house they met at was under surveillance by Italian intelligence due to suspicions it was being used for espionage. Boris met these individuals after a NATO summit which discussed the Salisbury poisonings response when he shrugged of his personal protection detail and aides who rightly should have record of the meeting. Shortly after this trip, two newspapers the Independent and Express which the Lebvedevs co-own, moved against Theresa Mays leadership and Boris was subsequently made PM. Only in mid 2020 was Evgeny Lebvedev nominated to the house of Lords by Boris as 'Lord of Hampton and Siberia, despite our own security services warning the PM this was an unsafe appointment. There was masses of criticism at the time yet the story seemed to attract much less awareness than the party gate scandal. Alexander is an 'Ex' Kgb Russian Oligarch who is currently sanctioned by certain NATO countries like Canada for owning a banking business that operates in Russian occupied Crimea.

[@mickkidston7344]

​@@adrianchetwynd1334 all the major nations were net contributors, but only one got a massive rebate, the EU gave the UK a massive discount on dues just for the Kudos and financial benefits that having the UK as a member brought to the party for the benefit of all members , the real question is, why would you pose that question in that format with that caveat ?

[@adrianchetwynd1334]

@@mickkidston7344 Why jump into a conversation when you don’t have any factual figures to supply but only a biased political opinion. One financial aspect I had in mind was the amount of money that Britain paid into the EU coffers that came back to Britain in the form of farm subsidies. Therefore, on leaving the EU the government maybe would have been able to maintain British farm subsidies and still have lots of cash savings by not being an exporter of free cash to the bloated EU. All members of the bloated EU should have disbanded it in my opinion and replaced it with what it was originally set up as which is an economic union and not verging on a communist dictatorship as it turned into.

[@michaelhearn3052]

@@adrianchetwynd1334 My understanding was that the EU contribution was £50 million per day, less what we got back from the EU in terms of farm subsidies, direct subsidies to firms and other grants. The sum returned was between £23 to £28 million on a year by year basis depending on where you got those figures from Nat Audit office, Office for Nat Stats, etc. In 2018 the UK government paid £13 billion to the EU budget, and EU spending on the UK was forecast to be £4 billion. So the UK’s ‘net contribution’ was estimated at nearly £9 billion. Each year the UK gets a discount on its contributions to the EU the ‘rebate’ was worth about £4 billion.

[@einseitig3391]

I feel we place a heavy burden on Labour and we expect them to clear up too much. Firstly, we can all see how Johnson conned his way through his premiership. However, the people we should hold to account are the members of his party. Many of them knew him privately. Lots of them were repelled by him and yet it was they who installed him as Prime Minister. Like lots of us, the electorate, who knew what he was saying, was a pack of lies during the Brexit referendum and yet the 52% voted for it. We, as a country are becoming very good at shifting responsibility. Holding Labour to account for someone who had no business representing his party let alone the country is not fair. The dash to legislate instead of applying the rules that exist is another problem which usually results in bureaucracy. I guess we all want not to have to deal with someone so odious and obviously only in it for himself but we have to look to ourselves rather than others to step up. Labour themselves, had more than a hand in Johnson becoming PM. How? Jeremy Corbyn sat, idly, on the fence during the Brexit debate with his own decades old prejudices against the EU allowing him to take no lead against Brexit. His stance would ultimately lead to smallest of wins for Brexit, Johnson’s appointment and massive 2019 majority.

[@epincion]

@@michaelrowsell1160 I don’t disagree that that was a very stupid ideologically driven policy by Labour, but it’s not true that in England (85% of the population of the UK) Grammar schools dominated private schools. It’s instructive that objectively the best state education in the UK is in NI where there are 1) no private schools and 2) all high schools are defacto Grammar schools and all pupils are streamed when they take the 11+ exam. The result is that state schools in NI are all strong and it’s because the PTA’s include the full mix of parents who are concerned that the school their kids go to is the best it can be. The big problem in NI is the the fact that bar a few all schools are sectarian - Protestant and Catholic and this needs to be ended

Sadly, I blame the electorate for voting for him in the first place, so he must have appealed to a large number from his rhetoric. Indeed the Reform vote did dilute the Tory vote by a considerable number in some constituencies. It is permissible for MPs to have secondary employment outside of Parliament; it is not permissible if they are a Junior Cabinet Minister and above. I suspect that the reason why he has not detailed his earnings from last year, which as an MP he is required to do by parliamentary process, so I have been told, is because this is I understand goes into the members interests documents which are open to public scrutiny. Don't forget when the UK left the EU, he got a €150k severance payment, and a €73k pension. UPDATE: Farage has notified his earnings in the following disclosure: Clacton MP Nigel Farage is paid almost £98,000 a month to be a presenter on GB News, his register of interests has revealed. The Reform UK leader is paid £97,928.40 a month by the broadcaster, for 32 hours of work. Details from today's Evening Standard 17 Aug 24.

On the last day of Mums life my sister, father and myself were allowed to spend twenty minutes each with her individually and in full protective gear. 2 metres away and told not to touch her. Her only communication was to move a hand when we entered. I broke the law and held her hand when staff weren't looking. As I drove home she passed away. I cannot forgive the parties the excuses or the lies. I used to vote Tory but never will again, unless honour is restored and the corrupt are properly delt with by their own.

Condolences on your loss 🙏. The sad thing is that a large number of old people where discharged into Homes without adequate testing.

Sigmund Freud called us rabble. Why wouldn't we end up with Boris or Donnie as top dog?

It’s ironic that the first clips of the snp complaining of corruption

The distinction between recent PMs since Blair of Iraq is they have all been WEF members. Therefore, their allegiance is to Davos & the plan, not the British people. & of course this applies to the majority of MPs. That’s why everyone should vote Reform UK; they’re independent.

The man partyed while people died. He put spiked rails in doorways in London so homeless couldn't shelter he slipped off to russia mountain in italy to party with lebadev family. Then put the son in lords. He put his whole family in lords well sis not included. Bojo male family thing i think. He as a student with Cameron n pals behaved very badly. Nothing done treason. Deciet maybe should be looked into

Where does corruption and self interest divide, pre 50s I would argue the self interest of a certain strata of society was systemic but under a veil but where there was no one prepared to pull it away for various reasons most because it worked for them. When your plate is empty a large pile of crumbs and scraps can be seen as a meal.

the interviewer exemplifies another reason why corruption is allowed to flourish: the ineptitude of the fourth estate - how he can blithely conclude that a period known by economists as the golden age of capitalism (1945-1979) was a period of decline highlights the lack of rigor in today's journalism. placemen will not investigate the men who put them in their place ...

It’s a tough choice , stick a pin in a list of conservative politicians over the past 20 years and you would have a title winner every time 😂

We need the entire Russia Report to be published without any redacting.
