War makes it sound like his policy will actually reduce the amount the taxpayers give to scroungers.
He is hardly going to force a single mother getting tens of thousands in housing & other benefits to either work or put her litter up for adoption.
Asylum seekers will still get housing and money for food etc. regardless of how they entered the country for years before a decision is made.

Apparently very little seems to pay these days
There was a time musicians were said to make their money touring
Now apparently they do it at a loss, or so so the bbc said yesterday
Some woman subsidises her touring costs selling pics of her arse on OnlyFans, while another sells pics of her feet supposedly
This followed the infamous case of the pimping of a squirrel in America for likes online….only to link to their porn status.
The future is hardcore porn and AI
Nowt else

I believe in the Welfare State but not Welfare Culture
Farmers, Big Business, Land Owners as well as Benefit Culture parasites. We need to stop giving away free money.

100 squids a night to tory donor. 50k a year shirley

Good job they are raiding the foreign aid budget to pay for them.

In 2023, the UK spent £4.3 billion on asylum seekers and refugees in the UK, which was 28% of the aid budget.

It would be nice if one day both Labour and Tory leaders stop playing to the gallery with this endless 'attack of benefit claimant' nonsense and actually go in hard after all the tax evaders and avoiders instead, but then they'd have nobody left to donate to them. It's classic deflection tactics at play here especially as he probably feels under pressure with cutting of the winter fuel allowances still prevalent given the time of year it is, budget fall out, the farmers protest, calls for new GE etc etc. Foreign aid has been cut in recent years, but you really need to look much more forensically at how much you're paying and to who. I remember not so long ago the Indians calling our donation peanuts, the country that spent £330 million on a statue, the world's biggest, though tbf I think they really didn't want it, but you get the point.
Kind Regards.

Quite a lot in there that's good, and systems that are adversarial

Senator Lindsey Graham promises to destroy the UK economy if we arrest Netanyahu
Isn't it brilliant having allies like the US?

Prime Minister Starmer has confirmed the UK both would and would not arrest wanted fugitive Benjamin Netanyahu if he ever visited the UK. This is because we respect international law, but we do not deal with hypotheticals, okay? You would think the prime minister’s fence-sitting would get him off the hook here, but sadly not. US senator Lindsey Graham has promised to destroy our economy if we arrest Netanyahu. In fact, he said the Trump administration would destroy our economy even faster than they will destroy their own economy.
Senator Graham let slip that if Netanyahu and Gallant go to prison for their war crimes, he and his colleagues might be next. While this sounds worrying, the fact Graham feels comfortable confessing his war crimes shows he’s not that concerned. The US has a Hague Invasion Act and Senator Tom Cotton is not afraid to use it. Senator Graham has vowed to sanction any country that complies with ICC arrest warrants, a stance that is entirely unrelated to the $1,000,580 that AIPAC generously gave him.
Senator Graham is not just making a stand for the war criminals of Israel, he is making a stand for the mineral resources of Ukraine. He has proudly announced the Trump administration will loot the war-ravaged country to enrich themselves with up to seven trillion dollars of rare minerals. I believe this is called saying the quiet part loud. If you were under the impression the looted wealth would be used to benefit ordinary Americans, you would be sorely mistaken. No one gives a **** about those!
Incumbent president Trump has announced exciting plans to emulate the 52% poverty rate of Argentina. I’m unclear if Graham’s promise to extend this policy to the UK is an offer or a threat. Obviously, it would be unfair for the US to get all the disaster capitalism. The prime minister’s owner, BlackRock, is keen to buy our housing and farmland, and anything else of worth, which, let’s be honest, is not much. Still, BlackRock is keen to own the rubble of Ukraine so I can’t say they’re particularly fussy. The world’s most evil corporation is happy to exploit any ****, even the north of England.
Sir Keir Starmer has explained there is no economic reason for his partnership with BlackRock, just like there is no moral reason for his support for genocide. He's just evil. This explains why he plans to replace the welfare system with assisted dying vouchers. Who would want to stay on this wretched island a second longer anyway? The brilliant thing about the free market is it gives us a choice. This is why disabled people who refuse to work will be given the choice of benefits sanctions or euthanasia.
The prime minster has declared war on “benefits Britain” which is confusing everyone who thought he was about to declare war on Russia. Perhaps benefits sanctions are a more efficient way of culling our workshy population. God knows we need to do something about the jobless layabouts. Thankfully, the prime minister has vowed to crack down on the “economically inactive" who want to live off “handouts”. I’m told the royal family are now feeling rather nervous.
The current situation represents a dramatic turnaround from last year when we spent the wages of 2,057 nurses on the king’s coronation. I don't know about you, but I think it was worth sending nurses to foodbanks so the rich man could play fancy dress for the day. He must get bored shitless doing nothing in his palaces, other than yelling at his servants.
One thing I’m unclear on is if the royal family is given the chop, does this mean Larry Fink will become our head of state? I’ve no idea, I just know Starmer's premiership is going so well that one million people have signed a petition demanding a general election, just because Labour has broken every manifesto promise. Some people are so ****g unreasonable. What do you lot want from our politicians? Honesty? x
Supposedly a parody but infact reality,what a cuntry,we are doomed in late stage capitalism owned by the US and Israel//

Blackrock is one of the most powerful and utterly corrupt shadow banking outfits in the world. BlackRock has been criticized for investing in companies that are involved in fossil fuels, the arms industry, the People's Liberation Army and human rights violations in China.
Environmental, social and corporate governance investing (ESG) is cited as ‘a dangerous placebo that harms the public interest’.
As of December 2018, BlackRock was the world's largest investor in coal-fired power stations, holding shares worth $11 billion in 56 companies in the industry.
BlackRock owned more oil, gas, and thermal coal reserves than any other investment management company with total reserves amounting to 9.5 gigatonnes of CO2 emissions or 30% of total energy-related emissions from 2017.
That Starmer is in bed with this malign planet destroying Trump loving company that pretty much owns everything is cause for extremely urgent investigation.
The MSM must give the public the facts about Blackrock, the UK’s future is with the EU not US planet destroyers like Blackrock..
It is Liz, Blackrock will buy the NHS, they will asset strip bankrupt councils, all public services will be up for grabs, this is how they earn rent for a few years then they move on and leave entire regions in ruins. Blackrock have the perfect framework for this to happen, 74 deregulated SEZs where companies who opt in and were selected by the UK govt receive public money in the form of State aid.
This is illegal in the EU where free zones are strictly regulated to prevent govts of member states from giving public money to companies ensuring they have a competitive edge, this distorts the Single Market creating an unlevel playing field.
UK SEZs contravene EU laws on State aid and a whole host of regulations spanning employment rights, food safety, and environmental protections.
On 31st Dec Mogg’s REUL Bill revoked 600 EU/UK laws, guess which were the 3 main areas targeted? I just mentioned them. The duration of all 86 free zone licenses was set at 25 years by Jeremy Hunt, this sabotages rejoining the EU, this is why Starmer says there will be no rejoining the EU in his lifetime. I call what is happening in the U.K. Zone Fever, free zones were kickstarted by Thatcher and Howe, they failed because they came up against EU rules on State aid. After the Brexit result ‘Full-fat investment zones’ were resurrected by Truss and Sunak, and fully backed by Labour who were active board members of the Tories nationwide SEZs/Freeports consortia, Labour MOs, Mayors, councillors, Lords, and Baroness’s signed off on many SEZs and Freeports.
Shanker Singham (the brains behind Brexit) was present at a signing with Sunak and former FM Mark Drakeford, resulting in 8 SEZs and 2 Freeports in Wales. The whole thing is a corporate coup''
I wonder who the CEO is...
Laurence Douglas Fink (born November 2, 1952) is an American billionaire businessman. He is a co-founder, chairman and CEO of BlackRock, an American multinational investment management corporation.[1] BlackRock is the largest money-management firm in the world with more than US$10 trillion in assets under management.[2][3] In April 2024, Fink's net worth was estimated at US$1.2 billion according to Forbes.[4] He sits on the boards of the Council on Foreign Relations and the World Economic Forum..
The International Movement for a Just World (JUST) empathises with the concerns expressed by several NGOs and public figures in Malaysia over the involvement of the investment fund manager BlackRock in Malaysia’s infrastructure development.
BlackRock has extensive investments in companies allied closely to Israel’s arms industry. It has, for example, a 7.4 per cent stake in Lockheed Martin, a US defence contractor that has played a critical role in arming the Israeli military. This is why Lockheed has been accused of complicity in the barbaric genocide in Gaza which is now in its eighth month. The CEO of BlackRock, Larry Fink, is known to be a staunch supporter of Israel in its ongoing massacre of Palestinians
These zionist filth are going to be running everything,who the fcuk is this person Starmer bought and paid for years ago..we'll all be swearing alegiance to Israel at this rate while they destroy the country,..WRF Is going on..

I am absolutely in favour of this approach. It was shameful that the Tories seemed to tolerate a big rise in benefit claimants but of course they would have been accused of being extreme right wing if they had tried to reduce it. Anyone without a medical certificate signed by 2 doctors should have to apply for a job and get no benefits unless they do.
Furthermore the Employers NI hit dealt a blow to those businesses using tax payer money to subsidise part time and low wages!
Why should the tax payer pay rent for low paid workers so businesses can avoid paying a living wage to their workers!

He should lead by example, bring in a 90% tax on all political donations over £100. Also tax any earnings a sitting MP makes outside of parliament buy another 90%. This will stop the wrong kind of influence on our politics and the wrong type of person entering politics in the first place.
Dear UK people, Starmer has announced that he and Blackrock have formed a government partnership, why the hell are you not reacting to this news? Do you realize what this means? The UK is going to be privatised!
Councils defunded, NHS defunded, public services defunded, military heavily funded, welfare benefits defunded, the wealthy heavily funded, Net Zero defunded, 86 free zones funded, it all adds up and points to one thing, total privatisation..

Just seen a post on the BBC HYS refer to Starmer as Kid Starver instead of kier Starmer
Bring back the lying bunter Doris. At least you knew where you were with his lies.

Result of austerity, real wage cuts, two child benefit cap.
Stunts physical/mental development. Deprived children up to 7cm shorter than European counterparts.

The story so far:
1st class stamp £1.65; 2nd class 85p
When privatised in 2013: 1st class 60p; 2nd class 50p
Benefit of Privatisation: Higher price, worse service.
The same will continue.
It just gets worse and worse..

7 million are not dependent on benefits.
I do not know the true number who are and I have no problem with anyone receiving benefits where needed from the cradle to the grave. I also think basic dentistry should be free on the NHS.
What I object to is single mothers being housed and incomes on my taxes until their kids are adults.
I object to losers “ mental elf “ issues who are work shy and want a free ride.
I do not want to see Employers low wages subsided by my taxes and people working part time so they get their housing costs paid and income support.
I do not want my taxes spent giving rich landowners free money for doing nothing including rich farmers
I do not want professional grifters whose families have not worked for generations get my taxes
I would pick up the dinghies on the beaches of Dover and send these people back across the channel to fend for themselves.

So you want young mothers and children out on the streets?

No I want them to keep their legs closed and not deliberately get pregnant to get social housing!
I am more than happy for them to be housed in dormitory accommodation at UK or Rwandan former military bases with no male visitors!
Why should working families have to pay in excess of £1,200 a month for somewhere to live?

No I don’t!
I want them to have great lives and not get pregnant just to get free housing!
And yes. Anybody in that position who wants to be housed for free should accept dormitory accomodation
Explain to me why young should go out to work and accept low wages and have to pay in excess of £1,200 a month on rent while young women who get themselves knocked up get free housing?
Why should people who work part time get their housing paid for?

I think attacking the needy for the crimes of the rich is a bit boneheaded but that's just me.
No
I don’t support giving free money to rich landowners and rich farmers for fallow fields and rewilding
I do not support subsidising employers paying low wages by giving people income dupport and housing benefit carts blanche
Again tell me why someone who is pregnant get a free house for 18 years?

Because throwing a baby out on the street, or forcing it to live in a workhouse is something even a nazi would baulk at. Come on lad, it's not hard.
More importantly PP tell me why hard working people are the ones struggling
And yes also. Tax evasion would reap more than persuing benefit fraud. We should persue both
And yes also. Tax evasion would reap more than persuing benefit fraud. We should persue both
Again, blame the rich for the struggles of you and me. But turning your fire on young mums is exactly what the rich want you to do. Drawing some kind of weird equivalence between businesses and billionaires not paying their fair share, and a young girl trying to do her best for her baby.
Not turning it on young mums PP
You don’t get it
Nanny and dude have no problem with white people mugging us off but object to foreigners doing it
I am opposed to all of them mugging us off. I do not discriminate against people mugging me off.
Let’s get after the tax evaders too!

Minister Louise Haigh quits after fraud offence revealed. - If this lot weren't politicians they'd be screwing the system for all they could get. Clothes, houses, phones, holidays, pop concert tickets. These parasites are way past hypocrites, it's almost psychotic.
Agreed!
At least she has gone unlike dirty Tories

Again though, tax evaders come in different shapes and sizes. You're giving equivalence to a young mum (not sure what crime you think she's committed btw) to the likes of Dyson or Starbucks etc? Right wing politicians would be lapping up comments like that. Yeah, great. Turn your fire on the poor and the wretched. On the young, the migrants, the abused. They're just the same as the billionaires employing their accountants and lawyers.
Not sure what Dyson has ding wrong but Starbucks, Nero, Amazon, Microsoft et al
Go after them TOO
Go after them TOO
ok, you're cool with the equivalence then.

With respect to you both (WD and PP), i think historically there is some justification in the 'keeping the legs closed' comment, saying that as even going back to the 80's it was a wheeze for young wans to get up the duff and get a council flat. Not sure how it applies today as very little availability particulary in 'better' areas. I can 'get' that comment.
Not being Mr Diplomatic but the argument going after the bottom rung and a free run for the rich is very fair too, really shouldn't be a problem at all but when times get tough there is just the one target and correct that the so called rich seems to always avoid paying more.

The rich always get away with it. They even enlist the morons of the three word slogan brigade to fight their battles
Why would any working person with kids support the farmers in not having to pay inheritance tax?
Lapsy, it was an easy example to use and yes a cheap shot. My point is we are being ripped off. By many

Everyone on here knows you are not the smartest and can barely conceal your filthy racial prejudice and Islamaphobia

lapsy - I don't think it applies today. There's a mum who lived two doors from my mum who was kicked out of her private rented house last year. Her kids are now living with grandma while she's in a grubby hotel five miles away in town. Very very grim really.
And the keep your legs shut line is also one of those weird things that can only apply to women and never to men. When young men face the same responsibilities you'd soon see a change, but we're still quick to villainise women's actions while young men get a pat on the back and called a jack the lad.

I did suspect as much PP in regards to nowadays,it was rife when there was housing available.
I have every sympathy with young people these days,daunting won't do it justice and for many it is simply impossible. No quick fix and a radical overhaul needed as the so called system is losing a wheel. There is no incentive if your low paid job is basically going towards a landlord.

It's all about carrot and stick for me. Politicians can only ever talk about the stick. But what is the incentive really? The price of childcare in this country is ridiculous. And then you add on the price of housing etc. If you're at home bonding with your baby, is it worth your while going out to a crappy min wage job, when you know that after childcare and transport you're maybe £10 a week better off than being at home? Is £10 the right price for not spending those hours with your child? Politicians just refuse to even see that argument but that's the real type of question people are asking. That's why people are living with their parents into their thirties and why the birth rate has dropped off a cliff. Till the decision makers see and understand what the population are living every day they'll never get it and will never fix it.

I would get every pregnant girl who wants FREE accommodation the next 18 years to name the father so he can be DNA’s and made to contribute to his child’s care. If she can’t tell who the father is at least provide a list of say 5 names and start there
The father’s should pay! Not us the tax payer!

Such a weird impulse to treat young pregnant women like criminals. Rather odd.
Hardly
Nobody is stopping them.
Why should they get a free flat for 18 years?
Shouldn’t the child’s father contribute?
Why should we be paying?

the father will need to contribute, most of them stay with their parents anyway, the grandparents will be delighted, the mum can get out and enjoy herself again, hopefully being a bit more careful

The mortgage payments of 4.4m households to rise.
£500-a-month increases for the mortgages of about 420,000 households.
Will also increase rents.
Banks have cut interest paid to savers.
Profiteering but no regulator will act.
A country in tatters..
