The PM wants to talk about patriotism when the issue that is really affecting people is the cost of living. If he doesn’t wise up, that dissonance will sink him, says Guardian columnist Aditya Chakrabortty

No #PFI in Neighbourhood Health Services

We demand no “Public Private Partnership” (PFI) to finance Neighbourhood Health Centres

PFI's led to NHS paying up to 27x over for hospitals. Some #NHS Trusts STILL wasting 13% of their budgets on old PFI deals

Even the #Conservative government said ‘goodbye to PFI’ because it is bad value for money.

I spent all day counting Keir #Starmer’s 17 #U-turns — see the full list

Where to start?

The U-turns he made after taking over the #Labour leadership and ditching his 10 #pledges?

Or since he moved into Number 10 just under a year ago, surely that would be an easy list to compile?

Well it took me all day, so let’s see what the PM has changed his mind on.

Abbott skewers Starmer on cuts

Keir #Starmer has been urged to stop referring to his plans to slash the benefits budget by billions as being “moral”

Mother of the House Diane Abbott told Starmer, “there is nothing moral” about taking an axe to social security net

“This is not about #morality, this is about the Treasury’s wish to balance the country’s books on the back of the most #vulnerable & #poor people in this society.”

Starmer: a government of service seems like a distant memory now
https://www.thecanary.co/opinion/2024/09/22/swindonssundaysermon-starmer-wardrobe/?__s=43tdi5b96azmty2p7sbg

Have the Starmer’s not heard of Primark, or George at Asda? If they’re so fucking hard up they end up in a situation whereby multi-millionaires are forced to clothe them, they need to make the very same difficult decisions that they expect us to make

#SwindonsSundaySermon: how's that "government of service" going, Keir Starmer?

But are we really surprised to see Starmer squirming like a worm on the end of a hook less than three months into his tenure? Absolutely not.
