The empty horror of Robert Jenrick

We deserve a better class of villain. Or at least a more memorable one.

The aim was just to GTTO and it worked, tactical voting can't be nuanced, ask James Cleverly,

A lot of their policies will start to make a big differeto people's lives, free breakfast clubs, additional free childcare, improvements in the NHS to mame a few.

The GE is 4 years away, there's absolutely no way to predict the outcome, LE results don't reflect how people will vote in a GE.

Oh ffs, big business won't have welcomed the rise in minimum wage, the Employment Rights bill, the renationalising rail, the 50% rise in APD for private planes, the rise in Employer NI contributions, VAT on private school fees, ending non dom status and more, soundbites aren't facts.

Bet you don't get a response, people fling these meaningless phrases out but can rarely defend them without more meaningless soundbites.

Great article though the constant movement of the photos is very irritating.

I do them all the time with YouGov through their app where I do surveys to earn points/money. Ipsos have an app too. I am probably asked once every few weeks who I would vote for.

This is how Find Out Now do it:

This is absolute bollocks, the next GE is 4 years away, very, very suspect polling.

Claire Savage (UK not USA) @csav55.bsky.social · 18h

These polls are very suspect and totally pointless 4 years away from the next GE.

Claire Savage (UK not USA) @csav55.bsky.social · 18h

I've got a few too, seems wrong to throw them out.

Claire Savage (UK not USA) @csav55.bsky.social · 18h

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've been able to do that for years, started with my first pregnancy.

Claire Savage (UK not USA) @csav55.bsky.social · 18h

Try the 10 petite, I'm between a 10 and 11 and get the 12 petite for comfort.

Claire Savage (UK not USA) @csav55.bsky.social · 18h

Next petite size 12 should be good, they do a nice bootleg style. I'm 70, 5ft 2in, had 3 kids and they're my favourite jeans.

What a surprise, yet another Guardian article based on unnamed sources, but it gave people the opportunity for a bit of Starmer bashing so job done.

"...unfair behaviour at work.

“It’s not just a basic right, it’s also fundamental to this government’s plan to make work pay. That’s why it will remain free to bring a case to an employment tribunal, ensuring everyone, no matter their means, can stand up for their rights at work.”

..or you know, maybe they NEVER intended to do this in the first place.

After all, no one has provided ANY proof at all.

Here is what the Justice Secrerary has said:

“It’s a fundamental principle that everyone, no matter their income, should be able to get access to justice to challenge..."

Last week the Guardian ran a story using unnamed sources to claim Labour were going to charge fees to workers wanting to take their employer to tribunals.

People & unions got angry, despite no proof.

Now we get a story that apparently Labour hav rejectednthe plans following Union backlash...

I was in a pub in Oxford couple of weeks ago, guy in front of me asks if he can taste the wine before ordering a glass, was told no, I told him to get a move on as there was a big queue.

Claire Savage (UK not USA) @csav55.bsky.social · 20h

These polls are very suspect and absolutely irrelevant 4 years away from the next GE.

Claire Savage (UK not USA) @csav55.bsky.social · 20h

Keir Starmer was right, Farage never has a good word to say about Britain.

Yes, ask Jenrick and Oakshott why it's a problem only seeing non white people, what's the issue, why should there be more white people than non white people, make these b*ggers say the quiet bit out loud.

It's horrible and a not very relaxing end to an evening out.
