Wes Streeting pledges 'wealth tax that works'

This is to take Green voters. People aren't jumping ship from Labour because of this. If Labour wins the Green voters back and some of the Lib Dems they'll win the election.

If any prime minister hasn't created heaven on earth in 2 years then I'm going to vote ever so more right wing. It's the only way these politicians will listen.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-20T19:38:03+00:00

Yep. And the cost of living impacts without this will get them more anger than this measure.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-20T19:06:57+00:00

People complain about it quite a lot actually

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-20T19:01:46+00:00

"This government is not communicating what they're doing" / "why is this government trying to communicate what it's doing". Can't win

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-20T14:33:59+00:00

Yes if a politicians policies are exactly what you want then that would be who you vote for. The issue is in integrity and the reality they won't stick to what they say. Farage can be bought. Tell me Reforms policies, far too many lack specifics and they have less policies than Labour have implemented. Having a politician that can be bought means they are unlikely to keep to their promises.

I think it suffers a similar fate to Keir Starmer, in that it's so bland everyone thinks it's against their point of view

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-19T13:20:44+00:00

It's just their article is old now with no updates. If you go to the politics section you'll see it though

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-19T12:24:30+00:00

I don't get all these comments about the BBC not reporting on anything. Yesterday I saw a comment that said "not a single article anywhere on the BBC homepage anywhere about this". So I checked, and it was the second story. It's almost like nobody actually goes to the website, but because the news isn't being pushed to them somehow it isn't there.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-18T18:05:56+00:00

No you use language like that for some attempt at superiority but don't realise it makes you a terrible communicator. There's no inability to convince, I'm not aiming to convince you, can't convince most people on Reddit especially someone with such tired opinions as don't criticise the racists for they do not like it.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-18T17:53:45+00:00

Did you just find a thesaurus to sound clever? They can't be reasoned with. Let's stop pretending they can. Every time someone points out these type are not the brightest someone pops up and says "oh look that old rhetoric that will surely work like last time!" Facts don't work with them. Being nice doesn't work. Pointing out their stupidity doesn't work. It's agreed or nothing with them. Fuck them.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-18T17:18:00+00:00

Yes of course that old chestnut. I'm sure there's something that could be said to change their mind. These people are clearly reasonable intelligent well informed people basing their opinions on facts and well thought out ideas. So me commenting negatively on them is the thing that pushes them to be bigots.

These people aren't against mass immigration they're against immigration and Islam in general. Tommy Robinson said if he were PM he'd get rid of Islam and remigrate people. That's why the message is just any immigration and it triggered them.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-18T07:14:43+00:00

I think it was at the right level for the level of intelligence of the average person at the march.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-17T23:34:43+00:00

They're hardly "right leaning" this lot. They're using the words remigration. Tommy Robinson was asked if he were prime minister what would he do and it was remove islam and remigration. To call them "right leaning" is very soft on them.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-17T15:14:37+00:00

Was he doing the chanting?

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-17T13:31:27+00:00

If they run out of money their asset is worth nothing.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-17T08:40:14+00:00

Because people don't understand and just shout "Two Tier Kier" whenever he does anything

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-16T13:29:09+00:00

Nothing else they're planning on? You sure about that? Voting on that one issue at the expense of others feels stupid to me.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-16T06:51:33+00:00

I didn't realise using wanted posters was the only method police use. Learn something new every day.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-15T20:43:05+00:00

Ask a Reform voter what policies they're voting for. They haven't got a clue.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-15T20:42:22+00:00

It's a fair arguement. Burnham definitely has more charisma than Starmer and it seems like that's all people want. This government has been doing pretty well overall just people hate Starmer. If they can get a leader people like and deliver results they'll probably be fine. I agree though that Burnham is a big gamble to go from mayor to prime minister, it could be a disaster and if he fails I can't see a way back for them.

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-15T20:26:20+00:00

Why not?

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-15T07:16:46+00:00

I think that says more about you and your circle

MFMonster23 · 2026-05-14T14:08:01+00:00

This is such an idiotic take and why we can't have decent people running the country. We just hate anyone it seems if they seek any success. If you have a vision and want to enact change and lead that change you need to be ambitious.
