@Spartacus it's easier to pray on those who need help the most I suppose. People can be very naive if they assume you are helping them (see Brexit promises)

@Spartacus it is! Sometimes you feel like you are screaming into the void, or banging your head against a brick wall, right? It's not down to stupidity either.. They've been conned, (as I am sure we all have at least once in our lives) fed a lie repeatedly and over an extended period of time The trouble with populism is it easily becomes part of your identity, so before you know it, denying what you have believed for so long becomes more painful than broadening your view point.

Yes, we need Mick as our PM, Tories have been a corrupt embarrassment for the UK seen around the world and what's really sad is, they don't care, its blatantly being exposed and they simply don't care. Their argument is " there's no money, where do you think the money is coming from? If we raise wages inflation goes up". We have to listen to the lies as nurses and doctors have to pay to park at the hospitals they work in and their lunches (they rarely get) and we pay for the Tories expensive lunches as they hide their money in off shore accounts and avoid paying taxes. Our schools are a disaster with no teachers, no continuity, and endless supply teachers.

There's a good reason for that. Fiona Bruce works for a Tory donor. The BBC don't allow anti-Tory agenda in its programming. That's why they also vet QT audiences to fit their agenda. It's also why I no longer pay for the BBC.

Truth hits hard and time and again Mick Lynch has shown up politicians and journalists alike for their shoddy ethics. His put down of the Government hack on Newsnight with the words "You are a liar!" PRICELESS. He was insistent on pushing the line that the median wage in the rail industry was £44,000, despite being corrected by Kirstie that Mick did not represent train drivers. If Labour politicians can't stand on a picket line then can they really be called the Labour Party?

Totally agree! He has stuck to his guns and demolished and embarrassed his interlocutors with some good old common sense!

What’s wrong with making £1million a year?

@@elcristoph7380 Whats right about it ??

@@elcristoph7380 If everyone was looked after, nothing at all is wrong with someone making a million a year from their own work, but even if all were looked after, there would still be something very wrong with making a million off of the back of the works of others you employ, which is the majority of the rich who got most of their income from rents and dividends, for no work at all, both of which are taxed at a lower rate than the waged labours of workers who created that wealth they never got. Those workers then leave the workplace that prevents democracy in 70% of their waking life from entering, where the 30% of democracy they get when not in work is bent to the wishes of the minority capitalist classes before the majority workforce whose interests are directly opposed to the interests of their bosses, workers need decent pay and conditions, bosses want lower pay and conditions to retain more profits and increase dividend payments to the handfuls at the top of each company be they investors of board members they are often one and the same, and always a handful at most. That wealthy minority then hands some of that extracted wealth to hedge funds, who lend to banks, who lend to workers as credit, meaning for the last 40 years at an ever increasing rate, capitalists have been loaning their workers the wage rises those workers never got, via the financial system, which workers then have to repay to their bosses via the financial system, in full, with interest. A good capitalist hustle till it all fell apart in 2008 and we have never recovered since, the UK economy is smaller today than it was near 13 years ago yet the rich have gotten massively richer. Now do you understand what the problems are my friend?

​@@Nine-Signs You've told me a collection of 1/2 truths, and I'm not sure you know how wealth is actually created. Although I agree workers do contribute to creating wealth, this only exists within a framework, real wealth is created by the people who have the ideas and those who take the risk to invest in it. Workers come in after this and fill in the spots with either expertise, or repetitive tasks for which they are compensated.. some are compensated with low pay, other with very high pay such as CEO's who are basically well paid workers who are appointed by the board (time cook CEO of apple is an employee.. he owns less the 1%) As far as shares and dividends go. You can open a brokerage in the UK for nothing these days.. Next time you get paid put a % into the S&P500 and you can start building your wealth as well. I'm not sure why your talking about hedge funds, that industry has been in decline for decades. Cuts to bonuses, index investing and AI trading have pushed much of the wealth away from it. If you've been sat in a industry for decades with declining wages and pay rises, the smart and wealthy get out. Why would you remain in a stagnant work setup??

This is the problem with the deferential British. They firstly worry about the CEO and the board retaining its privileges. Network rail and the operator companies have through slick accounting practices siphoned off funds to the fat cats pretty efficiently. They have been profiteering off the backs of the workers. This laughable comment about workers needing to move out of sectors with declining wages is about to be tested. Let's see how the small army of directors on a million plus will get the service running. Let's see who the real essential workers are and the real, net meaningfulness of the work of the overpaid parasites at the top. In 2008 the politicians perpetrated a state level heist in favour of the bankers. During COVID a mega heist took place in favour of Tory party chums winning plum contracts. It's high time for a general strike because wealth creation hasn't been seen for the majority for more than a decade. It's only been there for a tiny, protected minority.

The dinosaurs died from an unknown extinction event dont know what her point is

I love that Mick picked up on the fact that her analogy was rubbish from a scientific perspective too. Dinosaurs reigned for about 160 million years, became extinct due to one of the greatest catastrophes in earth's history, and technically are still alive today in the form of birds. The idea that dinosaurs were lumbering morons who failed to adapt to the changing world is about 60 years behind current thinking, but what do you expect from a Tory.

@@oli2173 A few years ago it could be shown that the K-T extinction event was that meteor that had been suspected, and the K-T event was renamed. It is not unknown anymore. And not all dinosaurs became extinct either. The birds have survived. But all that is irrelevant. The dinosaurs had been around for a lot longer than they have been extinct. A lot longer. They had been around for much longer than humanity is likely to be.

And the (non-avian) dinosaurs (probably) went extinct due a giant rock from space, so hardly their own lack of evolutionary fitness before the impact. Hopefully, Boris Johnson will be the bolide that wipes out this mutant species of Conservative Party.

People are blind, believe the shite they read in newspapers. We should all watch out for the NHS because this government has a remit to make it go private.LOW wages for Doctors and nurses ,Underfunded, care workers left to rot, 90% of all dentists are private as are opticians. Lots of the NHS being shipped out to private companies off the back of Covid, Extreme waiting lists forcing people to pay and go private. Its done slowly by a thousand cuts until one day it will be just like the USA. £3000 for an ambulance £8000 for insurance on health care, that only pays to certain Hospitals, then only part not all, making you sell your house and go bankrupt. Not true? just watch the next move of the Tories. They earn money from private companies. The NHS is lagging behind European medical services, just do. a google check. you will see our NHS is being bled dry.

I thought that as well.I noticed the business man at the end of the panel was cut off many times as well and a couple of the audience had unanswered questions as well.Ironically enough at the same time as the Tory's were getting stuffed in two votes.Terrible stuff from the BBC last night.
