so it is official: Vote Reform get the same Tory party that crashed the country

[robinbanks]

bank rate has been cut 5x under Labour meaning lower mortgage payments

When you say 5x, do you mean "a count of five times" or "a multiplier of one fifth"?

You said:


So are you blaming Labour for a global event?

In which case do you blame Conservatives for a global event in 2020?

Labour lost control of the UK finances in about 2006 , just as they are doing right now.

I don’t recall the Conservative Party crashing the economy in 2020

 

[Notch7]

Labour lost control of the UK finances in about 2006

please can you show me evidence to support your assertion

these were the economic figure for 2006, which of these are evidence Labour "lost control of UK finances in 2006"

2006 economy growth 2.7%
2006 Uk inflation 3.2%
2006 UK debt to GDP ratio 35.7%

just as they are doing right now.

please can you show me the evidence of this

here are the metrics:

1) net migration now down to 200,000 from 1million
2) wage growth is strong, higher than EU and USA
3) bank rate has been cut 5x under Labour meaning lower mortgage payments
4) U.K. employment rate was 74.4% 1st half 2024 and it’s now 75.0%

Labour policies that help ordinary British citizens:

1) min wage increased
2) public sector pay increased (as per pay review body)
3) renters rights bill, protecting people in rented properties
4) increase in money to NHS
5) workers rights act (not all good, but some increase in worker protections)
6) energy bills set to come down next year

I don’t recall the Conservative Party crashing the economy in 2020

the economy crashed whilst the Conservatives were in power in 2020 -using your logic that is the Conservatives fault

So for all those on here who voted for Boris Johnson and are now saying the Tories were sh1t so they are now moving to Reform*..........its the same party

as the Thais would say: same same but different same


"Farage has told donors that he expects Reform to do a deal with the Conservatives, Anna Gross and Julie Steinberg reveal."

Client Challenge

NotchyFacts.

 

[Notch7]

NotchyFacts.

Financial Times facts

go take it up with them


Farage obviously thinks Reform have no chance in the next election, otherwise why would he be trying to do a deal with the Tories 3 1/2 years before the election?

Torries crashed the country - NotchyFacts
Reform have the same policies - NotchyFacts.

Farage is on track to replace this disastrous Labour government. He hasn’t even got his act together yet.

 

[Koolpc]

Whatever is claimed to support Labour its plainly obvious that the country is not at all happy with the budget. Plus the way they are running the country.

A very true statement.

And still people believe his rhetoric

I think most just take the view that Labour are a disaster and something else can't be worse. of course it can be, but the mood following the budget is that workers are being taxed more to pay for a more generous benefits bill.

 

[Mottie]

So not Labours fault then

Correct. Like the problems the tories had during world recession, a pandemic and war in Europe. Not their fault either was it.

 

[Notch7]

Torries crashed the country - NotchyFacts

they did

14 years of stagnating wages
prisons in state of collapse
NHS in state of collapse
councils in state of collapse
massive damage to economy due to brexit
massive waste of money caused by covid corruption

Reform have the same policies - NotchyFacts.

I didnt say they had the same policies I said Reform are just the Tory party

 

[Notch7]

Farage is on track to replace this disastrous Labour government

evidence shows it is not disastrous

the Tory brexit economy is what is disastrous

He hasn’t even got his act together yet.

Farage is in trouble: he is just populist rhetoric, he has no substance

as soon as the media stop giving him a free ride, he will be in trouble


look at his appalling racist past -if that had been a Labour MP the media wouldve had that front page news until the MP was sacked

There's a lot of money that was spent/wasted that needs to come back, plus I believe in the policy of not borrowing for essential spending.

Yes it's hurting. But it's better than kicking the can down the road, again
