Yep every MP. Starmers opinion isn't going to sway my view of it. I think it's a joke given how much their pay has increased the last decade. Is labour/Starmers opinion going to influence yours? Or if not... What's the relevance? I think it's a joke too, they absolutely do not deserve the level of pay increase they have over the years. In terms of Starmer and Labour, they are supposed to be the party to go up against the government and at least be more intune with the public. Given the current clost of living climate we see ourselves in this is an out and out smack in the face. If this party really wants to take power at the next election, accepting this payrise just shows they are no better than the Tories when it comes to thinking about themselves. They probably can't refuse the payrise, but a gesture like that would speak for itself Agree mate. But Starmer has distanced himself from unions compared to his predecessor so I don't have alot of faith. Who knows though he may use it as political ammo. Tories will just use the same line though about it being an Independant pay review. Tbh the fact that all pay rises are done by percentage is a farce in itself. A 10% pay rise across the board is an extra 10k before tax for someone on 100k but only 2k before tax for someone on 20k. So is it any wonder why the pay divide keeps growing because most times any business does a pay rise they use percentage which means the gap in real terms grows further.

There's many many reasons, go and volunteer at your local foodbank it's an eye opener............. So I'm giving you the open forum to tell me why someone can't live off 30k a year! Tell me?! Are you suggesting that as long as professional people like nurses are paid enough to survive, they should be grateful.

So dramatic! Nobody banned education! Education was obliterated off the back of our absurd lockdown strategy. You know it was. That's before we even get into the forced masking up of children in the name of said virus they were mostly immune to. Have you considered that schools may have been closed to protect teachers who were being asked to work in a confined space with over 30 potential carriers of a highly contagious and dangerous virus?

Why is it always Labour's problem to solve Conservative Governments Policy Choices? Labour are benefiting from this choice are they not? Will labour reverse this if they got into power? Course they won't
In any case, that's exactly what they are there to do - overturn the mistakes of the outgoing government I'm impressed you have insight into Labour's Manifesto for Next Election Your second paragraph I entirely agree with and boy do they have a catalogue of mistakes made over the last 13 years to deal with if Elected

Cheerio, Nads, you crazy old loon!
Like your crush you shouldn't have been allowed anywhere near public life.
Interesting to see what you do next. Probably TV I'd guess. Hopefully for your sake on a channel somebody actually watches.

I see MP’s have had a pay rise to bring their salaries in line with train drivers.

It's often referred to as the Dunning-Kruger Effect I know, I tried to educate Partick about his being stuck in the first stage of it but, not surprisingly, he wasn't for listening and ended up getting banned, which kind of underlines exactly what I was trying to get him to realise. Oh well.

Perhaps he's more of your charity begins at home types, certainly sounds like it. Or perhaps he's worried about being seen as a sanctimonious virtue-signalling do-gooder by some quarters? That 60 a day blonde woman genuinely made me laugh out loud. "I don't trust Labour because they lie. I want Boris back". These people vote! No wonder the Tories get elected so often with that kind of 'thinking'.

Did juvinile name calling in Politics begin with Trump or was it always a thing? Maybe I'm a little old to "get down with the kids" but are "piss pants" "Circuit Breaker" and "Dictator" common phrases that are now used in lieu of normal conversion? Look through Huddys replies to people and you will find loads more... Never has this been more relevent than over the last few pages
