Yes, Corbyn and his fans either don’t know or pretend that the markets will wear unfunded borrowing. You have more in common with Truss and Farage than you care to admit

There are no options other than borrowing? In a nation where the top 1% own as much wealth as the bottom 70%? Which the UN has chastised for poverty levels utterly unacceptable given the nation's wealth overall? Oh. Okay again, then.

Blanket wealth taxes have failed everywhere they’ve been tried. That’s not to say the tax take from the richest can’t and shouldn’t be increased, but it has to be done gradually and strategically as Lab have done and will continue to do. The Corbyn lot are addicted to easy answers just like Farage

We're not talking about blanket wealth taxes. We're talking about a modest increase in taxation at the top which won't make a jot of difference to the daily lives of those who pay them but will make an immense difference to the country. www.oxfam.org/en/press-rel...

They’re hardly neutral experts on tax policy, they just constantly sell this snake oil which never happens and nobody believes. In reality Lab has already increased capital gains and inheritance tax, charged VAT on private school fees and abolished the non-dom regime, with more to come no doubt

Oh good. Everything's fine then. Good to hear. Well, we'll just leave him to build success upon success until Farage takes over then, shall we?

But the snake oil peddled by the likes of Corbyn and Farage will get us nowhere. If there were easy answers the Tories would have got round to implementing them

Honestly? That's it? The solutions won't work, and if they could have worked the Tories would have done it? Meanwhile because there are no solutions because they won't work because they're too easy Starmer is doing his best? Okay. I've given you the answers. Answers agreed to by economists and...

... even promised by Starmer himself in gaining the leadership, answers endorsed by most of those it would most affect, answers pushed for by prominent members of the Labour Party itself, but answers Starmer refuses to implement. Your faith is touching, but a little dull. Farage it is, then.

These left activist types never have to reckon with economic or political reality outside of their bubble. It isn’t possible to fix everything in 13 months or even 5 years - yes Lab do need to show constant progress but if the UK really wants Reform (i) they will have been warned and (ii) good luck

We’re still on everything’s broken and nothing works, it will take time to fix and people know that even if they pretend they don’t. The voters have agency too - destroying everything again only means fixing the fundamentals will take that much longer, that’s if we have a democracy left!
