That Labour 2024 General Election Manifesto updated to reflect reality.
#LabourLies people die.
I see the tory scum are up to their usual antics... this time disguised as the Labour party.
As usual, punish the poor, the impoverished, the disabled and the hard trodden... anything except make the wealth hoarding pieces of shit who now fund the labour party pay a fair share.

UK minister suggests cut PIP claimants don’t have significant needs
#Labour minister suggested people who will lose #disability payments amid sweeping #Labour cuts do not have “significant needs"
Work & Pensions Minister #McGovern was quizzed on BBC Radio Scotland when she struggled to answer some of the questions posed & declined to answer others
Abbott skewers Starmer on cuts
Keir #Starmer has been urged to stop referring to his plans to slash the benefits budget by billions as being “moral”
Mother of the House Diane Abbott told Starmer, “there is nothing moral” about taking an axe to social security net
“This is not about #morality, this is about the Treasury’s wish to balance the country’s books on the back of the most #vulnerable & #poor people in this society.”

GB Energy was always just a wet dream from some Labour policy writer. Full of ‘hints’ of promises, none of which will ever be achieved (or frankly were ever intended to be so). Meanwhile a lot of Scottish voters bought into that (and Grangemouth and Austerity)

Expert weighs in on Streeting’s mental health ‘overdiagnosis’ claims
Wes #Streeting’s claim there is an overdiagnosis of mental #health conditions is a “distraction” from the “chronic #underfunding” of #MentalHealth services, a psychiatry expert has said.
I want to see a realistic risk assessment.
The neoliberal IDIOTS don't give a stuff about the impact on the mental health of the vulnerable people who will suffer... The fear alone has an impact before any cuts become a reality.
Then there are those of us who are carers, also impacted by having to soothe and try to mitigate the harms.
I am F*CKING FURIOUS!
Labour’s branch office in Scotland referred to the Electoral Commission for ‘intentional misinformation’ it published in run up to Glasgow by-election.

WHAT ABOUT THE WORKERS!?!?!?!?!?!
“The right to switch off policy closely mirrors laws introduced in France in 2017, which were designed to end the “always on” culture by making it illegal for employers to expect their workers to be contactable outside designated work hours.
On Tuesday, ministers will confirm that the policy has been dropped …. amid concern that the provision would have placed too much of a burden on businesses.”
Please don’t pretend you’re surprised ToryBoy™️ Starmer is reversing all the progressive promises he made to ‘win’ #GE2024 on 31% of the vote
He lied through his teeth to get Leadership of the New Conservatives (t/a Labour).
If you’re feeling cheated and let down right now you’ve only got your own stupidity to blame.
The rest of us warned you — you chose not to listen.
Scotland — we need to cut ourselves free sooner rather than later.
#LabourLies #YouYesYet?🏴
Well colour me surprised. This happens when
- you lie through your teeth to win
- renege on most of your ‘promises’ immediately afterwards
- parachute in candidates with tenuous connections to their constituencies
- attempt to identify as Scottish Labour when all the evidence points out there is no such thing
- maintain a policy of screwing Scottish industry and the people
- persist with Brexit madness
Labour defy UK’s international duties by sneaky citizenship change
#Labour accused of defying the UK’s international obligations after #covertly changing rules governing whether #asylum seekers can become #British #citizens
Monday UK Govt quietly altered Home Office’s “good character guidance” to state people will now “normally” be refused citizenship if they entered the UK by irregular means – no matter how long they have lived here
It’s straight from the Trump playbook: #Labour is tearing up the machinery of government
This might sound astonishing, but the #UK government’s core programme now appears to be the same as Donald #Trump’s: dismantling the administrative state.
There’s less theatre, but the results could prove harder to contest. Absurd? Consider the evidence.

Block US Big Tech influence from the Data Bill | Open Rights Group
#Labour's #Data Use and Access Bill will take away controls we have over our data and hand more power to government bodies and corporations. We’ll be vulnerable to our data being used against us and less able to do anything about it.

#Starmer and #Labour will be conflicted and discombobulated.
While #AI might (unecessarily IMHO) need more cheap power (and water), 'zonal' charging will bring Scottish power costs down from being the highest in the #UK, and pretty near the top in Europe despite installing more #renewable power generation than the rest of the UK. It might also show the value of Scotch [sic] resources and help the cause of #ScottishIndependence.
Decisions decision.
But not in Scotland.... A distorted pricing model is still part of Labour's 'plans'
