She isn’t going to face a journalist who’s going to challenge her.
She isn’t going to face a journalist who’s going to challenge her.Such a powderpuff interview too - the alleged ‘journalist’ didn’t challenge one ounce of her bullshit. Might as well have been a party political broadcast.
The devil is obviously in the detail but from what she’s said in interviews she seems completely economically illiterate. She’s been banging on about our debt to GDP ratio desperately trying to justify borrowing by saying we’re not as bad as other G7 countries. Which as a comment in isolation is true but it doesn’t mean we’re doing great. It’s currently at about 81% but we’ve had slow/stagnated growth for a decade, are heading into a recession which is projected to be deeper and longer than comparable countries which is going to increase that number without the extra debt she’s talking about. The country is spiralling and she’s on cloud cuckoo land.
I've said before she sounds like someone who's just attended their first A level economics lesson and trying to show off what she's learnt.The devil is obviously in the detail but from what she’s said in interviews she seems completely economically illiterate.

The trouble with that is you can't 'grow' an economy when international trade is shrinking, you just suck in imports which leads to a trade deficit, run on the Pound, etc. That has been the downfall of many a previous UK Prime Minister.Wanting to reduce the tax take is fine if you can prove that you will recoup at least as much back from ‘growth’.
Awks
She's still correct about nationalisation.
Cant nationalise what’s already nationalised.
Also different doing some firefighting to having an actual strategic planOf course not, and she's slipped up, but the whole thing needs nationalising so her general point is correct.

Im surprised she’s had the courage to unmask on public transport given she once said unmasked Tory MPs were risking her and other labour MPs lives
Let me introduce you to the concept they call “time”.

I think it’s proven that the growth model leads to uncomfortable moral quandariesI thought he seemed to be sneering at the idea that Governments should act in a moral way. The argument was that morality gets in the way of growth, which in itself is nonsense.
A fraud on a nationwide scaleOn the day biden rubbished 'trickle down' economics she's doubling down on it. She's a moron.
We've had years of wealth transfer from the poor to the rich, there is no trickle down.
There’s around 14 months difference between the tweets?I think this was around “the time” - have to say I admire her bravery her forcing herself against all her instincts to attend an award night

Well it isn't really is it? It's still a franchised service that happens to be run by a company owned by the DFT as the private company running it handed it back. It is not a nationalised railway in the true sense of the term.
I just feel crap like this and Corbyns fake “no seats” thing harm their case TBH.
I'm all for a free market economy. If these firms have not given any thought to future sustainability, then why should they receive hand outs from the state.
Should they not just be sold privately for anyone who wants to take the debt on with the sprit of capitalism at the forefront of this thinking, or taken into public ownership at whatever fire sale price the administrator could get from the Government?
After a while, the businesses would become a viable again, and then be sold by the government at a profit or kept on being run by the Govt at a profit.
Absolutely fuck the shareholders.

I believe it’s known as postural swayKwarteng seemingly off his tits at the funeral.
Can you imagine the general outrage and backlash if a Labour MP was seen doing this?
Mass business collapse would be a much worse outcome, you can see the vulture capitalists circling
But..but...Grendel said it was mad and businesses would never go for it because it would destroy productivity and harm the economy.looks like the 4 day week trial is an overwhelming success from any angle you look at it
Four-day work week 'no longer dream' with 86% of trial firms wanting to keep it

Because in a crisis everyone is a socialist.I could see small business support being needed, but if you are taking huge profits each year, then why would you as a business need socialism again to prop to you up when things go bad?
Because they get to keep all the profits and someone else foots the bill when it goes to shit. It's brilliant for them.I could see small business support being needed, but if you are taking huge profits each year, then why would you as a business need socialism again to prop to you up when things go bad?
Of course no lessons have been learnt. They don't do lessons. They do money.Seems like the banking crisis all over again without any lessons learned.
