The UK Labour Party has been entirely taken over by 'entryism'. This is a practice typically associated with the far-left 'Militant Tendency' in the 1970's. In its present incarnation though, it is associated with: 1) Professional Managerial Class: high ranking public servants (such as Starmer himself) and some high-ranking trades union officials. This groups primary interest is in achieving effective administration uninterrupted by disputes based on working vs capitalist class interests'. 2) Zionists. based on both tribal and gentile sentiments, some religious , some geopolitical. Also includes Starmer. 3) Corporate agents: mainly lobbyists working on behalf of corporations or associations thereof. None of these groups are individually large enough to form a political party in their own right, especially under the 'first past the post' system, because the ‘special interests’ of each group simply do not resonate with the sentiments and interests of ordinary voters. None of these groups have interests that are implacably at-odds with the interests of the other two. That their interests are implacably at-odds with traditional Labour values is indicated by the orgy of expulsions, de-selections and weaponised accusations of antisemitism of the last few years. Building a party from the 'ground-up' has been attempted- achieved even- in places- by cobbling together various special interests. The Greens in New Zealand created a party by adding special interests such as gender, identity and ethnic rights onto the core interest of environmentalism. However, none of these special interests are specifically incompatible with the core interest. In the case of the UK Labour Party however, the interests of the entryists are very much at odds with the core values of Old Labour. Workers interests, International worker solidarity, justice in international relations. This is far more at-odds with Labour values than the entryism by the Militant Tendency ever was: their difference was a difference of degree, whereas the difference of the modern entryists is one of substance. Given that the entryists have captured the party assets and apparatus, and they have people devious enough to make sure it remains captured, it seems most likely that a new party based on the 'Rebel Alliance' of independents and the Labour MP's who have had the whip withdrawn, is in order. Thankfully they have several years to make this happen.

You are someone who thinks money grows on trees. If you print more, then you are taking money from everyone who has money. You keep doing that and the rich ones will emigrate and then the tax burden falls on the low earners.

Fructose indeed is a major cause of health issues, forcing manufacturers to label the type of sugar, might make people more aware. Oddly enough, the amount of sugar the average person consumes has not risen much since the 1920's but the type of sugar has changed. A much bigger health problem though is seed oils. Sunflower oil, Rapeseed oil (canola) are terrible for health. In the past, Europeans mainly cooked with animal fats or vegetable oils. Now this has been supplanted by these heavily processed seed oils. Those animal fats are not as unhealthy as people have been led to believe, indeed, research has shown that tallow & lard, offer quite a large amount of protection to the damage cause by alcohol to the liver.

It is indeed a moral choice but the choice is not whether to print money to end child poverty. It is a choice between ending child poverty and taxing the rich. Printing more money would be inflationary. Taxing the rich would not.

A lot of assumptions in this video. Abolishing the two-child benefit cap with alleviate poverty for one. I don't think so, the poor are more astute than that he believes, a lot of the benefit class manage their benefits for their own use; smoking, drinking, drug taking, holIdays etc. Benefits are subsidising lifestyles now, more and more, and not alleviating the problems they were designed for. Best to abolish child benefits and remind people that their children are their own responsibility. I know it's not left wing thinking but it's something worth thinking about. Responsibility not fecundity!

I agree that there's too much sugar in preprepared meals and other mass produced food items but the trouble is that most of the offending items are the cheapest options available. Not everyone can afford to be picky about what they buy not matter what the long term effects on their health may be. I'm referring to people on benefits or on low paying jobs who struggle to keep a roof over their heads and pay the extortionate utility bills we're subject to. If you can force the government to pressure food manufacturers into cutting sugar in the cheaper end food items, that will go a long way to achieving your goal. However, with the current 'government' who are unwilling to lift hundreds of thousands of children from poverty leaving them at risk of malnutrition, you've got your work cut out for you.
@glyngreen53816 сағат бұрын
Labour have said they want to get rid of it when they can - a reasonably probable time could be the first budget. Making unfunded spending promises sooner goes against the stance they have been elected on and the Tories and right wing media would attack them loads over at the next election. Or perhaps they’ll leave the cap in place (polling has shown that twice as many of the public support the cap as want to get rid of it) but use other less politically contentious methods to alleviate poverty more generally instead. I’m a leftwing Green voter myself but I support the cap to encourage people to have less children (if you’re going to have children at all two is plenty) which would be better for climate and the environment.

We eat with our eyes..not with common sense.. the word treat shouldn’t always be at the forefront of ppls minds.. the signs of obesity..such as weight gain, size change in clothing.. or even tiredness & mood swings..should all alert us to growing health issues.. but all of this is on a personal level.. after all you can’t go around telling ppl they’re fat or they’ve put on weight.. they take it personally.. Drs use the word cholesterol.. they may even pull up the food shop you eat, each week..& point out unhealthy foods .. but it’s down to the individual to make changes.. ppl need to understand that once they Finnish developing into a fully grown man/woman ..their immune system starts a decline (actual aging) the decline steepness is decided by free choices.. some knowingly & majority unknowingly .. this puts the ball in the education court.. but thats another issue.. 🤔🤔

Finally something from Prof Murphy that I fully agree with. I often visit the Far East where there is very little sugar consumed (desserts, chocolate, sweets, biscuits are often difficult to buy). They all eat local food like gannets and are as skinny as bamboo in this sugar-free part of the world.

When I was at school I had use of the school facilites. This was for people with physical and learning disablities (child poverty is a disablity). They took us to seaside for to amusment partk, filed parks castles, zoos and for playing games etc. I think Schools should remain open during the holidays. You hire trusties to allow children to use the school facilities during summer holiday etc. School need more activies out side of the school terms. This will allow children to use their computer systems as well as sports facilities and meals like social clubs. This would also allow to give parents some respite over the long summer holidays.
