The UK media is almost entirely owned by oligarchs who use that power to shape political discourse. Anything that would cost them money is "far left extremism." It's also shaped how people talk about Corbyn - the media largely depicted him as a hopelessly naive idealist or a lunatic even after Labour made significant gains under him in 2017. I certainly don't agree with all of Corbyn's decisions or policies - he's something of a useful idiot when it comes to Ukraine, for example - but comparing how they talked about Corbyn to how they talk about far-right cartoon villain Suella Braverman is enough to give you whiplash. Corbyn was a radical fringe lunatic for wanting to raise taxes and spend more on public services, but Braverman's efforts to rid the UK of asylum seekers and make protesting the war in Gaza illegal just means that she represents the right wing of the Tory party, and plenty of papers applaud her for it. It's absurd.

Sadly, oligarchs own our media and shape political discussion. Anything that would cost them money is "extremist."

It's particularly a sensitive issue at the moment because of the UK's crazy high level of debt. So much government money is just going towards paying off interest. It's very high risk to try to spend your way out of it. To the average voter, if they had a friend who was up to their neck in debt but wanted to start a business to grow their income, most people would say 'Pay off the debts first to give yourself breathing room before you risk going bankrupt'. Rightly or wrongly people see the economy the same way

@@Phobosandpanic Yeah that makes sense if we’re talking about a traditional personal debt. But the government pays off its own debt in its own currency and most of its debt comes from its own bonds not from external sources. So we are just like American wherein we can afford to have big debt levels as most of that debt is our own bonds and we issue our own currency in our own banks. America has a giant debt ratio yet it’s the biggest economy in the world, furthermore just after WW2 our debt was 4 times the size of our gdp level and it led to the highest growth in our countries history (our debt level is only 2x our gdp right now) so clearly debt isn’t as big of a deal as right wing economists make it seem Also debt usually isn’t a bad thing anyway if you tell people what you’re going to do with that money (if we’re using the business analogy) telling your investors that you’re taking out debt to expand the business which will make them returns in the long run is a lot more sensible than taking out random debts, this is why liz truss’s mini budget crashed the economy as she didn’t explain how 40Bn of tax cuts would grow the economy but labours previous 28Bn investment plan would be sensible as we knew where the money was going and how it would grow the economy.

@@Splooshua. Yeah absolutely agree, and very well put! I think the 28bn green investment plan would have been great and would have been 'good debt'. The problem is they're at the will of voters, who don't all understand the power to use and leverage debt in the way you do. Ultimately they need to be sensible and appeal to the average man on the street, who won't see debt in the same way. If they can get in power with a big enough majority, hopefully then they will be more radical with spending, but first they need to get into power with mass appeal

I'd be willing to call them pragmatic if they they were moderately centrist but left the door open for left wing change. But the so called pragmatic centrists winning power these days aren't just not left wing, they're openly anti-left wing with no evidence they ever intend to do anything remotely left wing or good for the country at all. Even their most seemingly left wing policies, like a national sovereign wealth fund, are just public private partnerships by a different name. For those who don't know, PPP is when the government guarantees private profits in exchange for private sector investment. This sounds good, but all it really means is that the profits of a supposedly public endeavour get privatised, and any losses are born by the tax payer. This isn't pragmatism, it's corruption of a party that used to be for the people (in general) by private school and business elite who just want to play the game.

Military aid isn’t sent as cash btw

completely agree. it’s easy to get idealistic about what we want to see in this country but we’re in the midst of a deep recession, how are we supposed to sustainably reform the public sector when we’ve inherited the tories’ wrecked economy. i do wish though that labour would at least try and communicate this long term vision to give voters some confidence and “a song to sing to the voting booth”

@stefanristicmovies yeah, my main hope is if Labour is elected, they'll be able to stabilise the economy, and then the left wing of the party will exert influence to push the government in a more ambitious direction

It's not about promising gimmicks. It's about turning the economy around: not treating a country's economy like a household economy, recognizing that economic stimulus has been successful and austerity hasn't, and, importantly, it's about not talking out of both sides of one's mouth. And he's been dreadful.

It's not an either/or situation. We are an incredibly rich country, very bad wealth distribution, but we can and should do both - and the green prosperity plan went some way to doing just that, with a boost to the sector creating more jobs. Government spending like this is termed as an investment as it boosts economic activity and ends up paying for itself - literally growing the economy that they keep saying they're going to do. 14 years of austerity spending cuts have utterly failed, so spending billions is exactly what we need - and we need to fund it by taxing the billionaires and multi millionaires wealth and the oil giants and Amazon etc etc.

Sounds like you are making excuses for Labour

He will need to increase taxes if he wants to get spending. Not popular. He currently bawls out ''cost of living crisis'' but he has not offered even one idea or pledge to put more money in our pockets. From 1997, Labour did not improve the economy, they trashed it with huge PFI borrowing and mass immigration.

@@KILKennyLaDa9898-js2nr UK voters want low taxes and Scandinavian style welfare. The Tories consistently campaign on lower taxes and how they'll achieve everything Labour does anyway. Because Labour can't be trusted.

Labours economic plans are wishful thinking that somehow the economy will grow

@@keithparker1346 It's not wishful thinking. Closer alignment with the EU would give an immediate bounce. Not rejoining, because we can't do that, but alignment. It's a no-brainer.

@@vaazig Stupidity to bolt on damaging EU regulation which will destroy wealth creation and productivity.
