NEW | On Sunak’s trans jibe, Starmer’s shaky footing on the moral high ground, and the media’s crocodile tears…

Really the utility of tactical voting or voting for the lesser evil is answered with this simple question: has your life improved at all since you accepted this argument? If you're around my age the answer is no and that's not because you didn't vote hard enough or are unwilling to compromise.

Privatise the trains!

"Will they be cheaper?"

No?

"Will the service be better?"

Haha No. In fact we will run the fewest carriages we can get away with.

"Will it be more convenient?"

No, we will cut services because of lack of staff because we treat them badly

"Why then?"

It's more efficient

Not to labour the point, but a serious intervention on dental health would be bringing dentistry back into the NHS and making it accessible to everyone rather than people who can afford to go private. Not some weird hybrid bathroom-tooth inspector at schools like what the freaks around Starmer want
