It is “difficult” making voters understand benefit have to be paid for, it is going to be “painful” for us to loose the payouts we have become used to.

If Starmer fails to stop the benefits being paid to those that don’t need he will fail to revive the economy. The Tory newspapers have had a assasination campaign against his new policies, gullible voters are influenced, it doesn’t have to be accurate, if you say it often enough it will be believed.

They sat there while in opposition, they could have prepared but did not appear to do much, except disagree. A lazy shower with no character

It's easy when you're the opposition.
Of course, it's going to be arduous when you govern.
I wish they'd just suck it up, and shut up!

They’re all the same these pollies . Blame the outgoing government for absolutely everything that goes wrong for the next few years. When they take office the buck stops there but they never seem to accept it - always someone else’s fault.

Not for you Sir Keir or Rachel Thieves!

But I expect you know exactly what the words "I am a 5 star liar" mean......
