This is a positive big development that should have dominated the UK news. What on earth has happened to Labour Comms?

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

This is huge:

The extra NHS appointments, delivered in part by extra evening and weekend work, have seen Labour’s pledge of two million appointments a year fulfilled seven months early.

UK govt must improve the economic condition of the bottom 50%, necessary for building economy and a just society.

1% has more than 70% of the population combined.

The bottom 50% has 5% of wealth, bottom 20% has only 0.5%.

No austerity. Must redistribute.

Labour hasn’t delivered growth or happiness. It needs an economic reset.
Successive governments have tailored economic and tax policies to impoverish the masses

Magic Money Tree.

UK's last Conservative govt spent £134m on never-used IT systems for failed Rwanda scheme.

Altogether, billions wasted. Contracts handed to cronies.

Ministers ignored “value for money” advice.

No one held to account.

Sorry, Sue-Ellen, but I always keep the receipts.
Home Secretary Braverman took seven months to even respond to the Jay Report, then vaguely promised "action" on 19 of the 20 recommendations and dismissed Yvette Cooper asking for details.

Recommendations actually implemented?

𝙕𝙀𝙍𝙊.

Now, Braverman is rending her garments. Rank hypocrisy. ~AA
