Sharing this mainly because it pointed me towards FullFact’s Government Tracker, which looks handy. According to them, only one pledge has not been kept, on the National Wealth Fund:
“Capitalised with £7.3 billion over the course of the next Parliament, the National Wealth Fund will have a remit to support Labour’s growth and clean energy missions”
And three others are ‘Off track’, while six are ‘Unclear or disputed’.
Those that have been achieved include:
delivering an extra two million NHS operations, scans and appointments, recognising a Palestinian state, introducing a Football Governance Bill, ending the use of offshore trusts to avoid inheritance tax and abolishing non-dom status.
For sure. Morgan McSweeney is the lesser known architect behind everything that is wrong with the Labour party now.
Totally agree, and the people who would be inclined to vote for Reform will vote for Reform and not a crappy version of them.
Personally, I’m a big fan of Zack Polanski and I’m glad to see the Greens surge in the polls. They have to be the party to fill the gap on the left that has been abandoned by Labour. There’s also Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana’s “Your Party”, but they’ve had a very iffy start to life as a political party. I hope both parties work together to try and stop Reform.
ReFuk (I refuse to call them reform) need to be stopped. I hope the greens get somewhere, and I also hope we get a better voting system and massive electoral reform in general. And possibly trebuchet every sitting politician into the Thames and then pave the Thames
