Does your Labor manifesto cost-out the tens and hundreds of billions for gov’t services to undereducated and culturally hostile immigrant families

Oh just bugger off.

But it’s tens and hundreds of billions mate - y’know 'cos he knows all about the UK budgets 'n stuff - and we should spend the defense budget on assault rifles for a militia… that 4th Century Roman Valentinian Great Culling could be our undoing - and we’ve been far too busy building parts for submarines all this time… or something…

As you can see above, I do not know how to post images directly. Its been a while for me on this site. Here is a link to a series of posters I made.

This is a handy guide for the coding on this forum - it’ll also show you how to link pictures etc - https://markdown-it.github.io/

or use this just for pictures:-

![](insert picture link in here between these two brackets)

for photobucket pictures choose the ‘Direct’ link option found in the ‘Link To This Photo’ box on the photobucket.com website to copy & paste the link in between the two brackets above 😃

 

That’s a very cool set of posters you knocked up there - really like your choices for the artwork - top work 😃

Austerity forced on the poor, disabled, voiceless, vulnerable, unemployed, ignored and the often forgot about - regardless of colour, ethnicity, religion, sex, or employment status - is finally being seen for what it actually is, 7 years and countless lives too late.

Let alone austerity on the emergency services, NHS, local councils, schools, libraries, parks, armed forces, intelligence services.

It’ll take years to recover from - even if it were started to be reversed today - but hopefully people will remember how austerity failed - and the true cost of it’s impact, both on people and services, for years to come…

Lefties really have a problem with the concept of U-N-A-F-F-O-R-D-A-B-L-E and W-O-R-S-E T-H-A-N U-S-E-L-E-S-S LEFTY initiatives.

There would be no need for austerity without that nonsense.

It was - and still is affordable - someone didn’t read the Labour manifesto with costings before spouting uninformed rubbish, and also neglects many of these ‘worse than useless lefty initiatives’ ideas were created just after WW2 where Britain had no money and has done fine - in the main - up till the last 7 years.

However, it is the Tories who chose austerity as a mask to get in their ideological agenda in 2010 - for which they are now paying the price - and others have paid with their lives (and I doubt you read their manifesto either).

Though I see you neglected to mention it being forced on the poor, disabled, voiceless, vulnerable, unemployed, ignored and the often forgot about - regardless of colour, ethnicity, religion, sex, or employment status - and also affecting the emergency services, NHS, local councils, schools, libraries, parks, armed forces, intelligence services etc - whilst the rich and corporates received tax breaks, and uncollected UK tax comes in at £34b annum (on 2012/13 figures - https://www.ft.com/content/48d5a518-552a-11e4-b616-00144feab7de?mhq5j=e3) - figures which will have likely escalated since due to cuts to the HMRC itself since.

Try harder my capitalising troll/wum.

Labor manifesto? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! XD

To highlight just one tiny but especially pertinent fraction of the crushing and worse-than-useless wastage… Humanity has been building atmosphere scrubbers for submarines for more than century. For pennies on the dollar much more “Greenhouse Gas” could be pulled out of the atmosphere than is contributed by everything except the big smoke-stack power plants and operations, if there was ever a reason to believe it was necessary, which certainly there is not. All of these non-smokestack energy initiatives are unaffordable scams of the progressives to gain political power and filthy lucre while generating maximum misanthropy for the collapse and Valentinian Great Culling.

Does your Labor manifesto cost-out the tens and hundreds of billions for gov’t services to undereducated and culturally hostile immigrant families that were necessary to nothing but expanded power for the insane and nihilistic totalitarian Left?

I could go ON AND ON AND ON AND ON BEFORE studying your gov’t budgets and practices in detail.

I thought it was a looooooong and DREARY slog for the UK, due to Labor havoc, from the end of WWII until the advent of a little Thatcherite sanity.

Do you know who invariably winds up paying, one way or another, for greater taxation and debt? The middle class and the poor and voiceless and vulnerable… The wealthy and corporations have teams of tax lawyers and accountants to keep from being crushed and to pass it on. And don’t talk to me about socialism, where the disparity between the elite and their victims is FAR FAR GREATER in terms of power and advantage.

This is what happens to the brain for spending any time listening to demented totalitarians.

Nice avoidance, deflection and selective answering there (yet you highlight your continued ignorance towards immigration). Your posts lack detail (capitalisation to cover over a lack of knowledge - showing your anger) and highlight dogma and ideology - with little understanding of what actually is and has gone on in the UK.

For example, your first post ‘I thought it was unaffordable and pointless green energy initiatives and the “progressive” outfits that peddle them that were the cause of this.’ (re the cause of the Grenfell fire). How wrong can you be?

Again, try harder my culturally hostile troll.

I don’t have time to read the article right now I’m curious if a reason was given for why Donald Trump’s visit was shelved.

Basically mate, Theresa May may not be PM by the time he arrives - and Trump is also likely a bit worried about the reception he’d get from the British public - a good PR visit for Trump (in a golden carriage ride) it would not be - mass street protests, moonings etc - and general embarrassment to the Royals 😃

And that was before Trump attacking the Mayor Of London and embarrassing Theresa May with disclosing his latest Muslim-Ban hours after May left the US on her visit.

‘DUP says deal with Tories 95% complete’…

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/jun/21/dup-says-deal-with-tories-95-complete

^ It’s going to be interesting to hear what’s in the deal if/when completed… and if it breaches the Good Friday Agreement - as well as raising tensions in Northern Ireland, and if it actually gets the Tories enough votes to pass most of it’s legislation…

(we’ve already seen many manifesto promises being scrapped by the Tories - as they do not likely have the votes to get them through even with a DUP deal - and many manifesto pledges have also been deeply unpopular with the public - at a time when they they need all the good PR they can get)
