Genuine question: is this the first election you’ve voted in?
I've signed it!
It's pointless like you say but its a good alternative to voicing opinion in a singular non combative way. It might only be the beginning of Labour's term but working in a small private company I'm feeling well and truely shafted at the moment. Honestly we're being treated as idiots, did they really we're that stupid to think a penny off a pint would appease us, not getting the fact that min wage, NI and rising energy costs would have us paying more for everything whilst paying more for shoddy public services.
The next step will be petition to the king which may make Starmer take a look at how he's doing things.
No ! Actually I'm 64 years of age, worked 41 years without one day off, now I'm struggling with cancer short term life prognosis and can't get 1 penny of my contributions in NI over that time other that stat. sick pay.The small amount of private pension they will tax a way more than the rebate I've received. I've seen a lot in my time, voted for all party's at different elections. I was involved in the anti apartheid movement in the 80's and welcomed immigration back then.Genuine question: is this the first election you’ve voted in?
Sorry to hear of your condition mate, thoughts are with you, and I wish you the best of British.No !

I was optimistic at the change, not expecting to much to quick but.....
Free speech is on the way out
Immigration out of control
Failing public services rewarded with pay awards and increased costs
I could go on and on......
Opps a bit more than you asked for

I don't like this Labour government so far as much as the next man, but I know you like statistics about the popular mandate.Up to 875,000 signatories now, over 100,000 in the last hour.
over 1.5 million now without a single mention on BBC news yet. Up to 200k for Palestine, Tommy Robinson and LGBT+ etc demo's(for fairness and reference)= Headline newsI don't like this Labour government so far as much as the next man, but I know you like statistics about the popular mandate.
The petition has been signed by 1.66% of voters, it's an irrelevance
Really sorry about your health problems.No !

That’s a really condescending and patronising post,Genuine question: is this the first election you’ve voted in?
To be fair somebody spending 30 seconds pressing a few buttons online is much less of a protest than travelling to somewhere to take part in a demoover 1.5 million now without a single mention on BBC news yet.

Starmer wrote: “In the coming months, Mail on Sunday readers will see even more sweeping changes. Because make no mistake, we will get to grips with the bulging benefits bill blighting our society.
“Don’t get me wrong – we will crack down hard on anyone who tries to game the system, to tackle fraud so we can take cash straight from the banks of fraudsters.
“There will be a zero-tolerance approach to these criminals. My pledge to Mail on Sunday readers is this: I will grip this problem once and for all.”
Believe it to be gripped when I see it. Won’t be holding my breath.It is quite hilarious mind that all the types of people this hapless berk and his band of idiots try to appease with this sort of distraction rubbish are no doubt signing and sharing that petition
But more climate friendly.To be fair somebody spending 30 seconds pressing a few buttons online is much less of a protest than travelling to somewhere to take part in a demo
Thanks,Really sorry about your health problems.
Totally agree with the three government issues you have identified.
