Labour are successfully ostracising the whole of the British public.

It seems like Starmer is on a speed run to get the lowest approval ratings of all time.
He seems to be going out of his way to alienate every group of people possible.

I wonder what Starmerites are going to say to defend him without launching an ad hominem attack against Diane Abbott. It’s clear that he believes that the government should service the labour movement by forcing everyone to be a labourer, regardless of whether they are capable or not. It’s what Blair did in the 90s and he is nothing but an heir to Blair.

Sheltered middle class journalists and politicians who have had zero interaction with the working class, claiming benefits scroungers don’t exist. Anyone who grew up working class will know for a fact that they really exist.

I mean while it may be exaggerated it’s certainly not a myth.

Maybe if labour stuck to their old labour values like nationalizing industry and giving working class a permanent jobs for life then people wouldn’t be stuck on benefits.

I mean, unfortunate that his critic is also one of the shammiest politicians of modern British politics

I feel many, many things about this kind of rhetoric coming from Labour, but one thing i think especially, it feels totally vapid. Like that wanna be at school trying to act like the bully to get kudos from all the nasty kids. Like it just comes across as indicitive of being both thoroughly unpleasant, but also kind of pathetic as well.
Either way, also, to me it seems to show how high on their own supply they are. You won because the Tory vote collapsed, not because people were fucking inspired by your right wing nonsense. People either hate this coming from labour or simply don’t believe it. SO you’re not winning the Reforms or Torys over, and you’re enraging your base! It’s delusional! ANd politics aside, where are their values!?

My God, I’ve voted Labour all my life, but Starmer is like Thatcher reincarnated. It’s like taking over Germany in 1945, then devising ‘The Ultimate Remedy.’

Not sure it’s a myth, I expect everyone knows some.
My sister and my partners ex both claim that’s just family.
Sister has never worked and she’s now 48, outside of odd cash in hand job.
Partners ex lives with his GF and who is his landlord so claims housing benefit even.
I’m not going to knock the individuals when we have MPs claim 2nd homes that don’t need them and use the excuse it’s legal so we doing no wrong.

Labour are, amazingly, going after working people this time around. So if any ‘approval’ exists it soon won’t.
In fact I just do not see that ‘other people who may be a bit dodgy’ is the public’s interest these days. We shall see.

Sunak’s National Service targeted the wrong people.
Long-term jobless benefits claimants should have to complete a number of hours of community service each week, non-negotiable.
It would help communities and they’d be giving something back.
