Keir's only mission

And one mission only, to breeze the NEXT election. I hope he sees that, can he do it? It's a tough ask but Labour must do it.

 

Cameron after 2010 election spent the first 100 days slagging Labour off every day for the state of the economy , right or not it stayed with voters and he won the 2015 election outright . Starmer has to do the same

 

First job, sort the junior Dr's agreement out.

 

I agree with this. This is the period where the government gets to "see the books" and to discover what the Tories have been up to. They should very loudly call out all Tory waste and misspending that they discover. Tick number one has come now the Rwanda Scheme has already been ditched. The amount wasted on this scheme for starters should be stated loud and clear. I'm not for all-out sledging, but the factual information is sure to tell a very revealing, and not very flattering story.

 

He’s more pressing matters Rishi left skidders down the back of several bogs in No10, brush and bleach first job

 

I never understand how this is a thing in an open democracy. Why isn't what's been spent already known about on some level? There's an openness and punishment for MP expenses but not for mismanaging and hiding a nations finances? Surely the books can be seen already? You shouldn't have to sit in 10 Downing Street to see figures.

 

I suppose it depends what your goals are. Improve the country or be able to say you’ve won.

If it’s the former i don’t see how this should be in the top ten things for him to accomplish. What he needs to do is make real change to the country and improve people’s lives and the rest should fall into place.

 

If I was Keir my first job would be to remove any furniture still there from when Boris was PM, as you can be certain he never had sex on it.

 

Chat GPT answered my question...

In a democracy like the UK, much of government spending is indeed publicly available through official reports, budget statements, and audits. However, when a new party takes office, they gain access to more detailed, granular, and current financial information that might not be fully visible to the public or the opposition while they were out of power.

This access includes:

1. **Detailed Departmental Accounts**: Each department has specific financial records and plans that may include sensitive information not disclosed in public documents.

2. **Internal Reports**: These can contain information on ongoing financial commitments, future liabilities, and contingency plans that are not fully outlined in public budget reports.

3. **Audit and Risk Assessments**: Detailed audits and risk assessments, which may highlight potential financial risks or mismanagement, are often only fully accessible to the government.

4. **Spending Commitments**: There might be unannounced or not fully detailed future spending commitments and contracts.

5. **Political Sensitivity**: Some spending details may be withheld from the public for reasons of political sensitivity or national security.

When a new government "sees the books," they get a comprehensive, behind-the-scenes look at the state's finances, including these deeper insights and h idden details.

 

Rachel Reeves has already started with the state the treasury was left in comments. They're not daft.

 

This has really annoyed me. What’s the point of voting for a Labour government if their only goal for you is to get reelected in 5 years? The point of changing government is to enact change, not to celebrate election victories.

 

It's d ick measuring at its finest.

 

I'd like labour to be like a brilliant ref. Completely anonymous but doing a good job in the background. I don't want to see or hear anything at all from them for 6 months but just quietly get on with the job that we are paying them for. They've got adults work to do so they just need to shut up and get on with it.

 

It’s just pure tribalism and there’s no place for it.

I’d have called it out if it was reform doing it (Farage will spend the next 5 years celebrating anyway) so it’s only fair that i call it out when Labour supporters are being just as dense.

I can be a ****, **** or a **** at times. Even sometimes a **** but i like to think i’m not a hypocrite.

 

this has happened across the board with various governments - Cameron did it when he took over from labour - it’s basically a pre cursor to validating taxation . I mentioned before the election what would happen - and this isn’t coming from any pro party perspective , it’s simply an easy target and something we will never know the real figures.
Labour have historically always overspent on public sector - im not saying this is a bad thing - in public sector there is too much mid management mediocrity who simply act as the Perspex to the decision makers so they don’t get hit with the crap.
The conservatives have haemorrhaged money -Such as Hs2 as if all of us northerners have a craving to get to london as quickly as possible .
For me there are some things that every successive government shouldn’t be able to touch such as gas, electric , rail etc. yet all we see is the book getting ripped up and a new idea put forward at the expense of the taxpayer.
what I don’t see as fair is that as a small business owner I should have yet another increase in company and personal taxes when I make sacrifices beyond some peoples comprehension (and I’m not pointing to people on here either before any abuse kicks in) to better mine and my families standard of living to benefit people who simply cannot be ar5ed to put a shift in.
I sincerely hope as a ‘working man’ I am not penalised even further than we already have been by the conservative government with even more taxes!

 

Because in my view, they will be a reason if they do indeed breeze through the next election, I really think that you have misinterpreted my post.

 

Calm thi sen darn, you touchy sod, I'm not celebrating one bit, I honestly can't see why you're getting your knickers in a knot.

 

That's kind of what I meant but you have put it much better than me, if there is one thing I'm 5h1t at is putting my point across on this platform
