“She told the Sunday Telegraph extra money for public services would have to come from economic growth.”
So no money for public service improvements. They are saying they will do no different to the Tories. So they are happy with the state of almost collapse in the NHS and people waiting on trollies in corridors in winter.
Celebrating this and that they are getting backed by big business. If you are paid and your decisions are based on that, isn’t that corruption. Celebrating being corrupt? How is this attractive to anyone, left or right?
It’s so demoralising as well. There was someone handing out (Scottish) labour flyers on the high street and looked at me like I was an idiot when I laughed and said they’re just red tories.
It’s a race to see who can fuck us over the most for the benefit of the “elite”.
Similar to why I told my fiancée I wasn’t fond of voting at the moment. Either I vote for the guy lying to me, the guy lying to me, the guy lying to me, or the woman lying to me.

That’s the bit that made me wince - it’s a classic Tory wheeze: we won’t raise taxes, we’ll just reap the rewards of some notional future growth (with no indication on how this is going to happen). Then the growth didn’t occur, so there’s no money for anything.
You have to speculate to accumulate so, for example, you pump money into a Green New Deal (perhaps by helping the poorest make their homes more energy efficient) and it employs more people in the sector and the price of green home improvements drops, because of economies of.scale, so more people get them done, which employs more people, etc, etc.
I think they also said they’d tax non-doms more - good luck getting a penny out of a group notorious for exploiting tax avoidance schemes and keeping their money overseas.

How to demotivate your voters while attracting no one with your complete lack of a plan.

Yup. I don’t think anyone deserves to win. Hung parliament could be the best hope for the next election.
