New New Labour has only been running for six weeks, four of them on holiday, but it looks as though it is on a mission to piss-off as many sectors of the British population as possible.
Here are some:
Pensioners - no winter fuel allowance except for those on income support
The rich - reportedly planning to leave the country
Parents (not all of them rich) putting their children through private education
Drivers - facing more 20 mph zones (which will also increase CO2 emissions per mile)
Smokers and vapers - facing more outdoor bans (no mention of cannabis users?)
Homeowners - facing rises in council tax or some other property-related cash grab
Residents in areas where more armies of dangerous young men are foisted on them under the guise of asylum seekers (and the asylum-granted)
Those (and it will be many) who will be affected by Starmer’s new bilateral treaty with Germany’s ‘bomb ze Russians’ Scholz
Everyone facing the planned proliferation of quangocrats, mayors and other high-handed gauleiters
… have I missed anything?
It reminds me of wacko comedians Rik Mayall and Ade Edmondson when they talk about ‘running into off-licences and seeing how much we can drink before the police arrive.’
Does the Change Labour team feel it is on limited time?
Or is this a rerun of Covidian arrogance - ‘let’s see what we can make the people do?’
Starmer has had validation from only 20.2% of the electorate, but the whole democratic system means nothing to an autocrat. It’s game on, between the people and the new Lord Protector:
In January 2023, Emily Maitlis asked Labour Party leader Keir Starmer, ‘You have to choose now between Davos or Westminster?’
Starmer replied, ‘Davos… Westminster is just a tribal shouting place.’
Like here, if you are far better off today than you were 4 years ago, you are an illegal alien.
