Reform

According to Google in May 2025 there were 736,000 job vacancies and 1, 640,000 unemployed people in the UK.

Try asking Google why that is!

The “economically inactive”, those not actually seeking work because of health issues and those between jobs account for a lot of those registered.

There are skills shortages, a lack of training facilities and economic barriers to taking the training.

Nevertheless there are more than twice as many out of work as there are vacancies. If training is the issue then we should address the problem of availability and cost or it will never go away and we'll be importing people forever and adding to the need for housing, healthcare, schooling, etc.

We certainly should address the training shortages and ensure as many of those who don’t work, but could work, do work. I have no time for the feckless and would take a very hard line with them.

Starmer had the law changed to enhance his own government pension.

You seem to have a problem with anyone successful who wasn't born in to poverty.

Starmer's father owned a tool making business, all this stuff he spouts trying to infer his father was a factory worker is total BS

How do you feel about for example, Stephen Kinnock the Labour MP, he is minted thanks to his parents having sucked literally millions out of taxpayers pockets in the UK and Europe.


Is he ok because he is Labour?

Strange question. It's not me writing off people because of their party, it's you.

I know little about Kinnock, but it's obvious the leg up he's had, will no doubt be knighted and lorded

Oh Dan showing your prejudice there.

They say that Horse Racing is the sport of Kings, actually it is the sport of the working man. I go horse racing quite a bit you will find as many working class people there as toffs. Entry to the Royal Enclosure is open to everyone if you can afford the ticket. Entry to the rest of the course is not too expensive certainly cheaper than going to a Taylor Swift concert, unless you are a Labour politician then it's free.

I don't see Farage doing anything wrong here.

And this from someone earning 130 k a year. The thought process of a champagne socialist in action, envious and hateful of success whilst living the very same lifestyle!

Even if that is what I earn, I don’t claim to be representing the people of Clacton or having that as my main job do I?

And what part of ‘success’ have I ever shown envy or hate over? And why if I do earn good money why shouldn’t I care about others cryrst? Should I pull up the drawbridge and laugh at the peasants instead? Is that what you’re meant to do when you have a bit of money?

And I’m sure he had a very working class day yesterday.

The massive grifter.

Actually he did. Helped his uncle at the scrap yard in the morning then a skinful of Stella at the Beast & Bottle with a few games of pool. Then a fight, a kebab and a knee trembler at a bus stop. He was quoted as saying
"It was a right fackin' larf".
 
I'm not sure I get the point you're making, but I presume that Starmer claims to represent the people of Holborn and Sr Pancras. Do you think that should stop him taking time out to watch Arsenal?

That MPs are elected to represent their constituents? Perish the thought.
