Look at what governments do, not what they say.

Labor is sweet talking about phasing out fossil fuels, while approving massive new fossil fuel export projects all over Australia.

In the past year Labour has signed trade deals with the USA, India and the EU, secured £200bn investment in the UK, contracted £10bn frigates to Norway and £5bn to Denmark.

Today, an £8bn deal for fighters with Turkey.

CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while worker pay is up just 26%.

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Beyond batshit.
A speech fuelled by grotesque vanity, resentment and prejudice.

We don’t experience the same rain

👏👏 Former Labour leader Neil Kinnock has told Sir Keir Starmer it is “time to look at rejoining” the EU to ease the country’s economic woes and get a grip on small boat crisis.

Kinnock, led Labour 1983 to 1992, said UK could no longer afford the “huge self-inflicted losses” created by leaving EU
Kinnock tells Starmer to consider rejoining the EU to tackle small boats crisis
Lord Kinnock says he understand it would not be easy but ‘if we really want sustained economic growth, we have to be part of a body of the single market with our nearest neighbours’
