Sorry to hear about your delayed train. You should have been on the planet when the railways were a nationalised industry. Not only were they often late and overcrowded, but they were filthy too, and their curled up sandwiches were legendary.  |
Austerity evidently was for nothing. Our country is in more debt than at any point in history, and despite their extraordinary attack on the poor the Conservatives have still not balanced the books.
We have never had more people in unstable employment, or more “working poor” since industrialisation, inequality has never been higher. The fifth richest country in the world with millions of people resorting to food bank use. Public services are deteriorating.
You are fooling absolutely no-one with your party political broadcasts form the Conservative Party.
Apologies I forgot selling off the family silver on the cheap. Royal Mail privatisation being the most recent example.
