So we can take from that, that a Labour led adminitration has a better teacher's salary at present than a Conservative led one.Teachers in England are now the worst paid in Britain

Not sure, been going on for a while. Bizarrely fergal Starkey has been leading the fight against itDisgusting - when did they start doing it?
I think it's damned if you do, damned if you don't.I want what I've saying for ages, some radical reform to undo the mess of the last 13 years and especially the last 3 or 4.
I don't buy this it cant be done overnight.
The energy companies are making record profits on the back of higher energy prices caused by the war.
The supermarkets are profiteering on the back of food price inflation which is over 20 percent.
Train prices have gone through the roof and massive dividends and bonuses been paid to executives.
The British public, the tax payers of the only G7 country whose economy hasnt returned to pre pandemic levels, are picking up the tab.
It's got to stop, and the damage has got to be undone, we're shouldn't be a cash cow for spivs and cronies.
Freezing council tax for a year isn't going to cut it.
When you are so fucking dense that you don’t realise this has been happening for years and years…
I think it's damned if you do, damned if you don't.
I agree with you that we need massively radical change to sort out the shit we're in. Not just economically but environmentally, health, education, public services, housing... the list goes on and on.
However, I'm also a realist and know that were we to do that it would lead to the markets crashing (not due to actual policies but their perception of 'on no, they're only going to let us make a fortune rather than a massive one so best sell everything quick') and that the measures taken would be hacked to pieces as after so much time being under right-wing government we're ingrained to thinking things like 'tax is bad', the country's budget should be looked at like a household budget and cut cloth accordingly, and being selfish and unnecessarily wealthy is something to aspire to.
Confidence in the abilities of Labour and the left is very shaky in this country dating back to the 70's and the slightest misstep is seen as incompetence whereas with the Tories it seems to be 'oh, its only a minor blip' or 'that was beyond their control' even though they've shown mismanagement of the economy numerous times.
These problems can't be fixed in a single term - there's too many. So then you've got people who'd say "well they haven't fixed the problems so time to ditch these lefty policies and get proper economic policies in. So you'd get one term with Labour in power and then you end up back with the Tories for another 3 terms because inexplicably people think they can manage the economy.
Fact is if we want to fix these problems it's not something an election can do. It's changing public perception on what we consider economic success to be, that capitalism is deeply flawed and growth is not the be all and end all of economics, that all these other factors are just as important as economics, that people are more important than businesses and money, and most crucially that being ridiculously wealthy is not something to aspire to as it causes so much damage in so many areas obtaining. But if you put that in a manifesto you're going to lose. People have become ingrained with ideas that will see them vote against their own best interests.
It's going to take a generation to change those ideas in society. But that's not going to happen if there is a right wing government in power a majority of the time setting the agenda. So you have to make it so that a left leaning government is in power long enough to take control of the narrative to change those opinions. And in the short term that means taking a softer approach to keep those whose faith in Labour is fragile on board.
I don't like it. I want radical change. But I know it wouldn't be given a proper chance.
It's also very sneaky, because that's exactly what they're trying to do. Create this idea that it's the fault of the teachers/carers etc. because they don't act on seeing signs of abuse. Not their fault for taking away all the funding for things that actually help reduce abuse and break the cycle once it has been reported. No, it's those terrible teachers currently holding the country to ransom with pay demands for not reporting it.Good to know they trust us with children so much they think we would ignore signs of abuse
They do of course know that teachers already are legally obliged to report to the police suspected cases of female genital mutilation. And that we are trained in making PREVENT referrals, and for filing safeguarding concerns on both children and on staff.It's also very sneaky, because that's exactly what they're trying to do.

It's a cuntish thing to do. And sadly will probably be effective.
It was never actually nationalised. It was originally owned by local authorities which meant that people on low incomes could claim a rebate on their water rates.I can't imagine that re-nationalisation of water (a literal private monopoly performing disastrously), buses, and failing rail franchises, would scare too many voters, and success here might reframe the argument elsewhere at a later point.
Wow.Good grief
Wow.
If that’s the case then Labour is pathetic. I’m not surprised though, which is why I’d only vote for Starmer because he’s not the Conservatives.Lisa Nandy pretty much agreed with these comments and also refused to say if Labour would change the Riwanda Policy

No she didn't.
The agreement with France is paid for by cancelling Rwanda
“That’s what we would do. We’d set up a cell to tackle the criminal gangs, working across borders; we’d process our asylum claims quickly; and we’d get a grip on the asylum system.
“That, in the end, is the only way to run a fair, humane, effective system that commands the confidence of the British people. Frankly, she should be ashamed of herself for touring the TV studios, making more and more bold claims when she can’t even do the basics of her own job.”
Actually, according to this article she mentioned that the Tory doesn't have a returns agreement with France but did not say that one would be established by the Labour government.
Labour MP explains everything that's wrong with the Rwanda plan in under two minutes
If Lisa Nandy’s appearance on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg taught us anything this morning, then it’s that you only need around two minutes to completely eviscerate the Conservative government’s plan to send refugees and asylum seekers to Rwanda.Appearing on TV in the same morning that Suella...www.indy100.com
Yes that’s what she said. She said they’d close down the gangs by setting up a cell - whatever that means
She's been watching 24
Im just picturing Starmer as Kiefer Sutherland
She was asked 4 times regarding Riwanda and would labour cancel the policy. Refused to say so
She spluttered about grooming across all cultures and then said there are particular issues with Pakistani and Kurdish grooming gangs and quoted Rochdale as an example
why didn’t she say she would cancel it then?
She said that there are problems from various cultural backgrounds and that it’s not helpful to single out one particular profile.
So basically the total opposite of what Braverman said.
Good to know.I am not her.
She said there are issues with Pakistani and Kurdish gangs - so she singled them out and Rochdale and Sheffield
Did she when asked would she cancel the Rwanda Bill say yes she would?
Good to know.
