Time for the PM to own up and take the blame

It is not just the Mandelson disaster which has angered the country and makes the majority hungry for him to go.

It is his whole style and approach to government. He said something true when he said he prefers Davos to Westminster. This is the never home Keir, international law Kier, two tier justice Kier, tax the hard working Kier, clobber UK business Kier, put self defeating  net zero policies before our living standards, our jobs, our incomes Kier.

He burns too much jet fuel and spends too much taxpayer money travelling the world in a vain search for famous friends and photo opportunities. Instead of building UK defences he pretends we can rely on a non existent EU security. Instead of stopping UK de industrialisation brought on by ludicrously dear energy prices and taxes, he seeks to make it worse  by making us submit to higher EU carbon  taxes and tariffs. Instead of helping people into work he slaps on jobs taxes, business taxes and farm taxes.

Labour policies effectively tell people not to strive to do better, not to work hard, do not try to grow a business, do not buy a better home or send your children to a private school. If you do the state will criticise you and send you a bigger tax bill. When so many things go wrong because of bad policies it is time for the Labour party to demand a change.

    The feeling is evident in the words. However poorly expressed.

      You mention Davos. That’s who he works for. His handlers will keep him in position until he’s completed his wrecking ball spree.
      We have a colossal deficit trade wise with the EU so he wants closer alignment with them and is willing to pay billions to get it. They should be paying us.
      As for net zero and continued mass invasion by military age mainly Muslims, again all Davos inspired policies. The man’s a charlatan and I fear he’s not done yet.

    Good morning.

    We know and he knows that he does not have long. So he is making hay will the sun is shining and clocking up his air miles. Well, he may even leave a legacy. You know, the one thing we all remember them by.

    Will I lament his passing ? No ! Why ? Because every time we get a new PM they turn out to be as bad or worse than all their predecessors. So hang in their TTK.

    Strange that you never once said that Boris Johnson should take any blame

    He’s applying for his next career with the world’s power-brokers and/or in the Global Quangocracy. That requires him to deliver THEIR Agenda for the UK, not act in the interests of the UK and the British people. He’s a puppet, serving foreign Masters, and is a very dangerous one.

    Red Ed is doing exactly the same thing.

    All vry real observations and nothing to argue with John.
    Starmer is the ultimate example of an organisational snake unaware it is eating its own tale.
    How ironic it will be, when Starmer concedes he is personally responsible for the most embarrassing and most damaging diplomatic activity in British history via the Mandelson fiasco. He will be brought down by a career Labour civil servant, Olly Robbins from the Blair stable. The tail is finally choking the head.
    The diplomatic folly didn’t stop with sacking Mandelson either.
    To compound his diplomatic naivety, Starmer went on to block our key and most capable ally the USA from using bases they fund from using them in times of need simply because 2TK can and wants to align with the Muslim diaspora now living in the UK and (historically) voting for Labour in the UK.
    He has to go.

    Agree John
    Clueless policies as to the needs of the people and the Country.
    We need people to be encouraged, to strive, improve, invest, save and try look after themselves, instead we get exactly the opposite as the risk is much much higher than any reward gained for success.

    That’s the liebour way they don’t want you to have your own money and spend as you wish, you can bet your bottom dollar that if it comes to crunch time with this weak kneed lawyer PM that he’s tells his fellow MPs that if he goes he’ll call a General Election and we know turkeys don’t vote for Christmas
