  1. In Topic: The Debate

    Today, 07:48 AM

    Andy Burnham and Rory Stewart would have fared far better than either of them. Blair would have done far better than Starmer. Ditto Johnson and Sunak.

    Presumably Millbank are advising Starmer that he just needs to turn up and steer a fairly bland middle course in the debates. Or they are advising him to keep his powder dry and not say much until a later debate. Or Starmer is doing what he thinks is right against better advice.

    Anyone with any personality and political credibility will eclipse them on Friday. Which means that they won't be eclipsed on Friday.

  2. In Topic: General Election It Is Then...

    ' The Club?s values are reflected in their zero tolerance policy towards racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism and any other prejudice on the basis of gender, religion or race.'

    What are this board's values?

    Irony.

    The worst Conservative Govt ever?a complete shambles?.a laughable election campaign and so far we know Labour won?t raise taxes. Or did I miss something? Dreadful opposition. ABC.


    Kind of depends on the state of the country when the current shower have salted the ground though, don't you think?

    Labour plans on the Royal Mail... oh hang on.

    Potholes, NHS, 40 new hospitals, RAC in schools, impending post-Brexit law changes, flooding, emergency services depletion, armed forces depletion and so on

    To say that 'There's no money left' will be an understatement.

    The first thing that Labour will need to do is to audit the extent of the shambles that they inherit.

    I suspect that almost any plans that they might have kicked around at Millbank will need to be shelved for emergency planning stuff.

    It's past time to end the extended amateur hour and run the country resposibly

    That was just something that google showed me... and agreed some of them are worthwhile but equally a lot of people are going to uni for 3 years of having fun with no intention of paying off their student debt.

    Funnily enough I was in a meeting talking about apprenticeships this morning and the Ops Director (who has a degree in hospitality management) was saying that it was a much better approach than a degree - and he has a 17 year old daughter who will be going apprentice route...

    If a degree is needed to show you have the academic capability and rigour to do a job then great, but otherwise learn on the job and get paid...


    I tend to agree with you on this. However when a government in waiting (or so they might believe) talks of conscription it's hard not to cast minds back to 11 plus and universities for the select small minority. As I say, I tend to agree with you but wouldn't trust the current shower to bring any compassion or economic credibility to the HE table.
