Can Sir Keir Starmer revive the Labour Party? (Vol. 2)
Discussion
Over in Blackpool ( Labour Council) i see that a considerable sum of money has been spent on putting a cycle lane in for 1 hundred yards or so stretch of road.
This when many roads are completely battered
It's not just any old cycle lane it continues on from one that is contrary to the direction flow of the road.
This one is even better it is in the middle of a stretch of road that is one way and again is contrary to the flow of the road.
It is genuinely bizarre. The cyclist will be cycling against the flow of traffic right in the middle of the road
A council can and will plead poverty and spend frivolously.

Labour have already started. Hiking taxes for private schools and undermining apprenticeships to fund their new plans. It's standard Labour TBH, this is why most of their councils are f

Councils are fked already....ked because funding has not kept pace with costs and the provision of adult and children’s social care has gone through the roof. It’s why ALL councils regardless of what rosette is running it is suffering.Again it’s a central government caused issue that councils across the land are trying to grapple with.
It’s funny how everything comes back to our inept government isn’t it? But you carry on voting blue as you’re too frightened to do anything else…

It’s not all central government’s fault. To think things at local level will improve with a change of government is just dull to say the least.

Keir Starmer recently visited Leicester, where he was asked about the Labour-run city council’s fears of bankruptcy and the prospect of deep local cuts, and what he might do in response. His reply reflected that deep-seated belief that voters associate Labour with reckless profligacy, and so any calls to spend money had to be loudly resisted. “We’ll have to live within the constraints of an economy that’s been badly damaged in the last 14 years,” he said. “So I’m not going to make promises I can’t keep.”
He's good at not making promises.bhstewie said:

You can't trust Labour to run the economy they won't spend money.
It is quite funny.
It would be…if it wasn’t so true. Still not long til streets paved with gold and massive council tax hikes….oh…. What do you mean that’s already happening You can't trust Labour to run the economy they won't spend money.
It is quite funny.
Jeremy Hunt will cut national insurance by 2p in his Budget
The Chancellor is reducing the work tax for the second time in less than six month in a move that will save an average employee around £900.
I guarantee Labour polls will still go up. The tories could add a zero and make everyone 9K better off, the polls will still go in Labours favour. I wonder why?

Perhaps a lot of the population detest what your beloved Tories have done to the country? The Chancellor is reducing the work tax for the second time in less than six month in a move that will save an average employee around £900.
