'Labour Think We're Utterly STUPID!' | Julia Hartley-Brewer x Theo Usherwood

Talk's Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by political commentator Theo Usherwood to discuss the day's headlines. The pair speak about the Labour party and Angela Rayner coming under scrutiny for hiring a photographer to follow her work in government amid the recent freebie allegations towards the PM.
Theo Usherwood says for pensioners "the choice is between heating and eating", under the Labour government.
They also discuss the late billionaire and former Harrods owner Mohamed Al Fayed who is accused sexually abusing staff over decades, which Julia criticises by saying "very rich men can get away with anything."

Pain yes. From this foul Labour Party. The worst government ever in my lifetime. I loathe them

[@robbieorourke5534]

This government and the last one have been the worst, the people have been betrayed and they continue to do things we do not want, the removal of the winter fuel for pensioners is evil, some WILL die, and the clothes and money for holidays is clear corruption....... this Lord is a dodgy Arthur Cole character.

[@Kurt_Steiner]

I know the feeling 😕

[@frete8792]

Maybe there will be good times if we all pay the same tax as starmer does. Only 25% on £400,000

[@KneelKneel-d3b]

The first 100 days defines a new government and it has so far shown all the hallmarks of a complete disaster.

[@paulc180]

This is the worst government I can remember, I am 67 years old and in my memory nobody has been as corrupt and pathetic.

What I did notice and is clearly an issue is there is No love lost between Reeves and Rayner! Big hugs for Starmmer and her friend with just a forced kiss on the cheek for the Union Rep Rayner 😮

[@bluedwarf8858]

Its not that they think we are stupid, they just think they are untouchable and not accountable to anyone. They are like kids in a sweet shop

[@frankbrodie5168]

If the Labour party leaders can't see that they are in a lot of trouble over this removal of the WFA then they really are too dim for words. All it will take is the unions to make a statement of "If you don't backtrack on this policy then we will stop our funding of the Labour party.." and Labour are sunk.

[@GeorgeCoyle-y2r]

Bet Rayner could have found a pensioner who would have taken photographs just for a warm place and something to eat

[@oee5551]

For once, LAB is telling the truth. There will be pain and more pain ahead with LAB in power. Bunch of sadists, psychopaths.

[@robertdavies8305]

The other MP who stayed with Rayner in the US apartment is supposed to be her ex-boyfriend. Even though the guy is married. All I can say is the guy's wife needs to wake up and take him for all the money he has and Rayner.

[@stuarttaylor9203]

It is worrying when we have a chancellor who has no idea about economics.

[@PhilipMatthewsPAEACP]

There is an actual resistance!!!!

[@Nansf]

Labour are forcing us into financial disaster, with people not willing to spend and stagnation is on our doorstep, many trades will suffer and then even more unemployment

[@michaeljames1468]

Not just about trying to justify it....its about justifing while on a obscene salary.

[@trevorford8332]

Let me think about that!! At times, yes!!

[@margaretrichards3533]

Does anyone notice how under-populated the Conference is? Labour members hiding in shame at least shows some of them have integrity. They only have to voice their views now - but that takes courage.

[@alfredisted305]

Why should Rayner worry about projecting her image when Gray doesn't appear to worry about looking like a hell's angel who really should speak to Lord Ali to get funds for a hair stylist?

[@kiwicol7383]

The good times ahead they talk about is for themselves and screw the rest of you ! 🤬🤬🤬

[@abattle4101]

Rishi in the football stands with the normies. Boris, when mayor, on his bike riding to work. Starmer in a box and Khan in his 300k armour plated range rover (loaned by the met) - all due to security issues. What's changed? Are the latter two more disliked and so less safe? Just questions.

When labour gave the bankers hundreds of billions for causing the 2008 recession they gave the people nothing. After killing millions in an illegal war in Iraq. In 2020 the tories gave everybody 80% of average wages. See what the bankers and weapons manufacturers donations to labour got them?
