Bad policies?

I know it's difficult to grasp viewing everything through the prism of Brexit and therefore the Government can do wrong whether lying, corruption, failure to tackle the cost of living crisis. However if Labour don't put up an alternative policy platform, or at best "slightly less shit and less corrupt then the Tories" it'll be consistently rejected.

A £10 minimum wage in 2025 when it's currently £9.50 isn't a compelling alternative. Far from being an ineffective communicator I'd go so far as to say Sir Kier is a very effective communicator. So effective the fact the party have no ideas is transparent to everyone.

It then becomes easy for the Tories and right wing press to bog him down in culture wars - discussing whether women have penises or refugees to Rwanda is a good idea or not. They neither heat the house or put food on the table.
