@lenlendrem @blaiklockBP @chilternbear11 Lol, if there was a general election tomorrow they wouldnt have any candidates to vote for.

@blaiklockBP @chilternbear11 Restore Britain all day long.

If there were a General Election tomorrow how would you vote? Repost for bigger sample

@jonburkeUK No.

Away on holiday and the hob is gas. The amount of waste heat this thing produces is ridiculous. We’ve be cooking on an induction hob for over half a decade. It’s clean, cheap to install and maintain, fast, emission free, and won’t blow the house up. Switch as soon as you can.

@sophielouisecc @Cerberusbite83 Incorrect.

@Cerberusbite83 Pensioners have to pay tax Why shouldn’t they. Why do they get money totalling over the personal tax allowance and don’t get taxed on it when every other person has to be?

Anyone getting benefits totalling over £12.5k per year in value should have to pay tax. If the pensioners have to, and minimum wage workers have to then so should they. There shouldn’t be a two tier system between those who work or have worked and those who have not

@mirminx H

Finally we've a PM leading us who's not lining the pockets of his mates (BJ & Gove et al); caring about the electorate not just Labour voters; treating us with respect (BJ broke his own Covid laws); not causing unnecessary mortgage hell (Truss); working not acting for the cameras

In my Mansion House speech, I made clear: the Strait of Hormuz must be fully reopened, without restrictions or tolls. The blocking of this vital waterway is hitting trade around the world and prices here at home. Freedom of navigation means navigation must be free.

@MikeTappTweets What the actual fuck.

I couldn’t be more proud to be serving in Keir Starmer’s Government. This is exactly the leadership our country needs in uncertain times. 🇬🇧🇬🇧

@richbarry_03 @lukejcr Writing them off 😆 🤣 😂 😹

@lukejcr What about either writing them all of or if you pay tax for 5 years write them off. Otherwise stop gaslighting the students, they’re not stupid with this “Labour is on your side” bollocks

I’m an MP with a Plan 2 student loan myself, so I know exactly how millions feel about interest rates. Capping them at 6% is a clear signal: Labour is on the side of hardworking graduates and is tackling the cost of living head-on. 💪

@lordratso @lukerobertblack I think yoi misunderstand what the fund is, anything thst goes into it is paid out straight away. Its not a savings account.

@lukerobertblack Would it be the National Insurance Fund perhaps that it's paid from? The one that has it's own tax levied on salaries & paid by all taxpayers & employers & is a universal benefit that counts as taxable income? Honestly get a life. You're just stirring the hate pot here.

Wrong. The state pension is a social security benefit paid for by today’s working population. It is funded by general taxation. No one has “paid into” a pot. Comes out the DWP budget like all other benefits

@StevePigott7 @HasAhmed_ Rental works for the rest of Europe? What a strange thing to say, especially when Countries such as Croatia & Hungary have over 90% home ownership rates.

@HasAhmed_ Why do you need to own ? Rental works for the rest of Europe everyone seems to want to rejoin that club, also the economic imbalance of home ownership was alone of the reasons why we left the EMU if you want closer alliances with Europe and the euro you know what to do ! Rent !

I’m glad more people on my TL are finally calling out boomer entitlement. The old “just cancel Netflix and save like we did” argument ignores the reality we face today. Housing costs have outpaced wages by multiples, student debt is at record highs, and real wage growth for young people has stagnated for decades. In the 1970s, the average home was ~3x annual income, now it’s often 8–10x+. Tuition for uni used to be free; now it leaves people in debt for decades. It’s no longer about lattes or subscriptions in an economic system that no longer offers the same baseline opportunities, yet the young today still gets judged by outdated standards.

@JRB___2 @HasAhmed_ Awww diddums. Fuck off.

@HasAhmed_ They say young people are frivolous with money. Half our wage goes to rent, which boomers love to increase. Most of the other half goes on taxes, to pay boomer benefits. What money we have left we save to try to afford a house more expensive from boomer NIMBYism.

One in four British pensioners is now a millionaire: telegraph.co.uk/money/pensions… 55% Social Security expenditure goes to pensioners: gov.uk/government/pub…

25% of pensioners are millionaires. 55% of welfare spending goes on pensioners. Why don’t we: 1) means test the state pension, millionaires don’t need benefits. 2) increase the amount we give to the pensioners who need it the most. 3) stop the unsustainable triple lock.

@jhnstncpst @mr_xray101 @terryelaineh1 @RachelReevesMP You're

@mr_xray101 @terryelaineh1 @RachelReevesMP They went into receivership in 2009 also cause bad management overpriced goods nothing has changed but yes blame Labour your thick

Minimum wage rising 📈 State pension increasing 💷 Two child limit abolished 🏡 Child poverty falling 📉 Rights at work strengthened 💪🏻 Labour promised change. We are delivering change. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@ReemAmirIbrahim Shut up

Why should young people have to pay for someone else’s retirement? If you live in a million pound house, and you can’t afford to retire, sell the house. Or don’t. I don’t care. You just can’t expect young people to pay for you!

@shivmalik Yes

Dear boomers, can you afford to buy the house you live in currently with the wage you used to earn before you retired? If you can’t, then that’s the whole housing problem in a nutshell. It really is that simple to understand.

@OhDooFookAff @james_xond Awww petal.

Be honest…If you could go back, would you make the same choice about the COVID shot?

@RattiTim @james_xond 7 million died because of covid, not from covid.

@james_xond Yes I would. I never got covid to this day. People did the best they could at the time with the information and decisions they made. 7 million people died from covid.

@MartinLarouch17 @starspider14142 @james_xond Whst a load of bollocks

@starspider14142 @james_xond Pure speculation The shot actually killed millions of people. That's a fact, not speculation

@saniyafatma1278 Things that never happened

@mgshanks Err

From today, energy bills will come down. Labour took the decision to bring down bills by asking the wealthiest to pay a little more. That’s the fair thing to do. We know there’s more to do to tackle the cost of living but this is an important step.

@BenInRushcliffe Yeah, okay..

I know everyone is different, but when Labour came to office I was paying £180 a month and now I'm paying around £135 a month for gas and electric. Around £500 less a yr.
