Strap in everyone.
If only one party had been warning this would happen………
Should’ve ditched the English millstone round our necks in 2014.
Along with Chuck 3 and a’ that.
Wait, the conservatives _aren’t_ the party of sound finance and economic decisions? :O
Gaslighters.
One of the richest countries on earth can’t afford to lift the two child benefit cap?
No need to worry. Sarwar guaranteed there would be no cuts or austerity. Starmer and Reeves will definitely listen to him and protect funding for Scotland- even if it means massive pain and cuts to England.
That’s fine just think what labour done after the ACTUAL world war 2! Social housing! The NHS! A substantial increase in living standards! I’m sure that’s what this “new new labour” will do too right guys? Guys?
