Tory lite pah, centre of left is not tory lite
Not like Randy has ever criticised this government.
Pretty sure was totally cool with their handling of the pandemic.
Fair enough festa, I didnt look at it that wayCould it be because your thread title was basically "Well done 2 Tory politicians".
Perhaps if you'd just said "great news for the area" then people wouldn't have assumed it was political?
Just a thought like.
I'm not sure you understand what patronising means....please don't patronise me on a Friday night
Starmer isn't centre of left.Tory lite pah, centre of left is not tory lite
And what about the people that aren't able to save themselves through no fault of their own.As Woodall has already said though, it's time we all realised that no political party is coming to save us and we save ourselves.
Really?Starmer isn't centre of left.
He's barely left of centre even if we take the current media definitions as gospel (e.g. Corbyn as far-left).
We the general population save them too. Politics in this country, hell worldwide, the model, isn't working. To me it's almost like which colour tie can score more points off the other colour tie and the general public are collateral damage.And what about the people that aren't able to save themselves through no fault of their own.
Saving ourselves is a right-wing libertarian position.
You are yourself look silly now, that’s not what the thread is about, it’s about businesses doing well and hopefully encouraging others to do the same and maybe others set up on Teesside. Political parties and their slogans are not going to do it for the area. Unfortunately there’s no “Knight in Shining Armour“ riding up to help!And what about the people that aren't able to save themselves through no fault of their own.
Saving ourselves is a right-wing libertarian position.
The OP was exactly this. Sir Ben T. of Houtchen.Political parties and their slogans are not going to do it for the area. Unfortunately there’s no “Knight in Shining Armour“ riding up to help!
Really.Really?
And the logical extension of that is a political party that advocates for a safety net and proper taxation to pay for it.We the general population save them too. Politics in this country, hell worldwide, the model, isn't working. To me it's almost like which colour tie can score more points off the other colour tie and the general public are collateral damage.
You don't need a “Knight in Shining Armour“.You are yourself look silly now, that’s not what the thread is about, it’s about businesses doing well and hopefully encouraging others to do the same and maybe others set up on Teesside. Political parties and their slogans are not going to do it for the area. Unfortunately there’s no “Knight in Shining Armour“ riding up to help!
I actually agree with a lot of what you say there. I have been saying capitalism is not working anymore. I also believe that corbyn had a lot of the answersAnd the logical extension of that is a political party that advocates for a safety net and proper taxation to pay for it.
If I save myself and you save yourself and we both try to help someone else how far will we get?
You've almost reached the logical endpoint yourself but haven't taken the final step.
The model (rampant corporatism as a the lovechild of neoliberal capitalism) isn't working. Corbyn (and Sanders to a lesser extent) offered a workable solution and the people with the most to lose (media magnates et al) convinced the general population that it wasn't going to be good for them.
That is the bit that needs fixing first. Stop believing the lies that this path is the only one possible. A lie that Starmer is happy to promote.
Especially Houchen and his party.And long may it continue, but I’ve said for years Teesside will have to drag itself up and because nobody else is going to do it for us.
That's not going to happen when we're just a centre for temporary industries owned by people from other countries or outside the region.Neither left or right.
I appreciated the furlough but not the 20% pay cut it came with.
As Woodall has already said though, it's time we all realised that no political party is coming to save us and we save ourselves.
They are still frightened of Corbyn's ideas. In Nadhim Zahawi's letter to Johnson urging him to quit he even alluded to Corbyn, calling him a dangerous anti_Semete.The model (rampant corporatism as a the lovechild of neoliberal capitalism) isn't working. Corbyn (and Sanders to a lesser extent) offered a workable solution and the people with the most to lose (media magnates et al) convinced the general population that it wasn't going to be good for them.
But it is the LAST thing we getWhilst 750 jobs is undoubtedly good news, there does need to be a bit more honesty about job expectations on the Teesworks site from Houchen and co, some of the figures are not backed up with reality and as this week has proven honesty and integrity should be the least we expect of our politicians.
Because people write things like "Far(ce) left" and suck all the joy from the world.Why are the Far(ce) left always so miserable
