Jazzer - I’m sorry mate but I can’t engage with you because you seem a bit lost. Have never liked Corbyn and have fallen out with mates because of how hostile I was towards him the country hasn’t fallen apart in 4 months since or because Labour took over the country has been banjaxed since 2008 because of global financial crisis and then years of austerity, Brexit and multiple loony Tory leaders in space of about 6 months. infrastructure and services have crumbled to nothing. Look at satisfaction ratings for nhs in 2010 compared to now as an example any govt taking over will not be able to turn this around possibly in a whole term some rich people (and lost people) will scream very very loudly but country needs fixing - and despite me disagreeing with several aspects of Labour in power (and I agree with some of rockets points) there is some semblance of a path back to stability no alternative party offers anything close to credibility at time of writing -
"some people just really really don’t like having a Labour government" For heavens sake just look at the utter mess they have made in the first four months in office, suggest you re-read Rockets post which sums up everything wrong with Starmagedons approach to running and making decisions in Govt. But you'll just shrug it off as you have already done saying Corbyn and the three stooges of Starmer, Rayner and Reeves are your saviour. Look at the detrimental effect its had on UK plc. Almost wants to make me pack up and leave the UK. -
Lammy has been a car crash in terms of UK-USA relations. Today Peter Mandelson advocated that Starmer should solicit the intervention of Nigel Farage to help rebuild bridges with Trump. Check this out UK Labour – POLITICO Starmer did not rule out the possibility when interviewed today on BBC. So now we have a PM about to grovel to Trump. Trump may well be a vile, spiteful and unpredictable individual and I fear what might happen during his second period of tenure but I reckon he will exercise a massive amount of retribution on this UK government because of its indiscretions and ineptitude. As for making Lammy the Foreign Secretary - that's beyond farcical. Lammy is toast! -
A recommendation for TDR - got a quote a couple of weeks after making contact with Tony. His team ( John and Bob ) came around at the agreed date and time slot and repaired / replaced a number of roof tiles in an awkard position to reach. They also cleared gutters, replacing gutter joint seals and adjusted the poorly installed drop on one gutter run that was causing water to accumulate in a corner. All in all a good job done at a fair price - thanks!
