Ensuring austerity, never seen before

The Labour need to stop sending money to fund wars...oh, there is not profit in peace.

Next month or so Starmer will send another few billion to Ukraine and a few million to France. Then he will blame Orange Man for making the UK a cesspit.

The UK is one of only 10 countries in the world (9th in magnitude) where its National Debt exceeds its GDP - at 107%!

Interest (money down thr drain) is often more than the cost of education, and is expected to be c£2,000,000,000 this year.

Hard to believe this is a Labour government. Reeves, scrapped winter fuel payments, cutting benefits, cutting hospital budgets--at a time when the NHS needs heavy investment. Zelensky refusing to talk to Putin, demanding more and more funding and arms to fight an unwinnable war with Putin. Starmer signs off another blank cheque. Funding Nutteryahu to destroy its neighbours. Starmer sweats and reaches for another pack of Grecian 2000. His missus reorganising her winter wardrobe of luxury free coats.
