    • How do we know this discussion represents what the country thinks?  At present I expect that most are thinking of Xmas and the one political issue in the news this week will be the assisted dying Bill. I expect Starmer will ride this out and move on.  It did amuse me the one comment that I wasn't Chancellor following my disappointment that fuel duty was not increased to bring it back in line with inflation.   Yet so many of us think we know better!   There would have been one almighty backlash if fuel duty had gone up.  But again ride it out.  I have many years experience working with the transport sector including the impact of give Blair a Bloody nose - ie the 2000 fuel protests; this still makes Labour shudder.  For those not familiar this was an unholy alliance of farmers and hauliers blockading refineries and depots.  This was effective as government was not prepared and then Blair wound the protestors up rather than let the protest subside of its own accord. As this involved trespasses on private land blockades would be prevented in future.   There were some follow up campaigns in the 00s that did not disrupt the delivery of fuel, and led to short term shortages due to panic buying.  Same thing happens when we get disruption of crude production when rigs/on shore infrastructure is disrupted due to extreme weather in the North Sea, or loss of production/refining due to accidents or technical issues.  There is a bigger picture on resilience of transport and heating fuels since UK stopped being a net exporter of oil and gas.  Lower reliance on gas fired power stations has helped.  Russia clearly not. So whether the dissatisfaction with Labout  this is an over-reaction or not, stoked on by the right wing media and quiet news days, we shall see.  Public messaging has been poor and I am unsure why this is so. Ultimately neither Tories or Labour would admit to income tax staying historically high due to the freezing of the thresholds, and neither said they would raise income tax - when of course it would stay at these high levels.  Maybe the fairest way of raising revenue would have been income tax rises, accompanied by raising the thresholds to protect the poorest paid and maybe even placate the squeezed middle.  But we will never know. Meanwhile Clarkson and many others will continue to exploit the means to avoid tax. Whoops Alice just said what I said in one line.  Lesson to self don't get on hobby horse.
    • What the Tories achieved in 14 years, Liebour have achieved in 120 days. A huge hole, so deep with no way out except resignation and a new Govt to sweep these mindless cowboys out of office. Because no one will forget, no one will forgive. Liebour tarnished themselves, they did it to themselves, big promises followed by lie after lie, or things they have done but did not say in their manifesto they would do. Prime example being removing the winter fuel allowance, increasing employer NI contributions, doubling the national debt.  They can lie as much as they like, the people won't forget and once gone, never, ever to return. Not only are they penalising their own said be supporters, they are penalising the entire country. So unless you won't to avert a financial disaster, yiu have to sign the petion to get them out NOW.
