Where have all our taxes gone? Over the last 14 years? This is the real question. No new hospitals, no new schools, no new prisons, no new GP surgeries or doctors, nurses policemen - nothing! Its funny isnt it that we have more rich people and the rich have been getting richer and the poor poorer!
Where has our tax money gone???
We have The lowest corporate tax rate (for the rich) yet the highest income tax rate (for the poor) in history. More billionaires and food banks than there’s ever been. The wealth is still in the country it’s just harder to see when it’s domiciled in the tax havens of the rich and not being used to fix the infrastructure that they benefit from the most. The wealthy benefit financially from the most. They benefit financially from a healthy population from an educated workforce. The tories took the shortest NHS wait times in history and made them into the longest (and that was before the pandemic.) They flatlined our economic growth for a decade. They raised our taxes they tripled our debt they sold off our infrastructure to their mates and threw parties while we couldn’t bury our loved ones, that their incompetence killed. A misguided ideology of hate and privilege.
Shame on everyone who repeatedly voted Tory and allowed this to happen to our public sector. Shame on them for the state of the NHS, the economy our boarders, our military, our schools and our prisons.

Germany pays EVERY kid child support. Every single one. Our family is not even from Germany, we only have one kid - and we received money without asking for it as soon as we moved to Germany.
Yes was that not introduced by the Austrian painters party. So it's a fascistic policy?
I know it's a logical fail but if the negatives of fascism is fascistic the so to are the positive
Same in Sweden, because the money is considered as being the child's. The parents are just in charge of how they are spent. :)
@@greamespens1460 If you know better, why write such a comment? No, nothing fascistic about it. Look up where the word comes from.
People who've been caught doing or being addicted to drugs should not be in jail. The UK is backwards in that regard.
Agreed unless they have committed a violent crime while on drugs.
So we are glossing over Trumps gaffs? He can't remember the leaders of his own country or his own party! And "Bing bang bing whoosh." Trump asks questions like "why can't we use nuclear weapons?" Inserting "light into the body." Get real people, Biden is a genius compared to Trump!
Yes. This all day long. Our media is not operating with anything like most honest spotlight on the topic. I call out O’Brien, included.
I found "covfefe" one of the most damning things about Trump, albeit seemingly small. We all make mistakes. Typos, grammatical errors and the like. Fat fingers, small screens, quick replies, right? But it was his inability to laugh it off and post what he really meant that showed me he was an arrogant, unrepentant and unapologetic man.
His call out of Cancer types post MRNA was excellent journalism at its highest level
Yes but he does not sh it himself when meeting the pope
OBrien educated by Jesuits
And it’s cheaper to just give child support to everyone. You don’t have to have large bureaucracy that checks the applications and chases cheaters. On balance you save money, in addition to spare kids being singled out as poor.
@bljah123 you just made up my mind as to where I'm going, my family can claim citizenship through ancestry so that's my plan.
Despite all these problems I'll still take Biden over Trump.
Weird! So you’re not a fan of democracy?
@@patrickbrennan911 wat?
@@nickwoodward819 You left a "t" off that.
@@patrickbrennan911you clearly have your glasses on back to front! Fascism is not democracy and thats what you’re wishing on your own country. Everything really has that 1930s feel about it. And because people don’t have previous generations experiences, they just keep repeating the same stupidness. Have you tried on your Brown Shirt yet?
@@DennisMoore664what?
Biden is now pretty much Lloyd Bridges in the Hot Shots movies. Still better than Trump.
Bruh? Really? You think Biden is better than Trump? You know Trump was president before right? You know he was the best president in the last 80 years right? Are you seriously that sheepish that you hate Trump because the tv said so? 😂😂😂
@@ibexdnb2879he was in the top three worst American presidents in history. If he was slightly less incompetent, he'd be number one by far.
If you disagree, kindly tell me one specific achievement. Specific.
If the country loves and supports the child, the adult will love and support the country.
Everybody should start insisting that he’s the best candidate in the running, and state that we must all vote for him.
Or you know, relate that it is not just this person you are voting for, but the admin that they appoint... one group is young and competent, the other are NAZIs.
Also, any program that *doesn't* also note the innumerable gaffes, miss-speaking, and apparently genuine non-understanding of the reality we live in from the other candidate, is suspect.
Yes. This all day long. Our media is not operating with anything like most honest spotlight on the topic. I call out O’Brien, included.
Austerity - Where did all the money go? Tax cuts meant the better-off getting richer - while all areas of our Society closed down!
oh, and 'what's it like living with a narsassist? Hang on - i'll go and ask all my mirrors...
I'm 60, my Dad is 89, due to listening to this on catch-up, I now, for the first time, have recognised the reason my blood pressure goes through the roof when I see my Dad is because he may be a narcissist, these people's experiences are so familiar! It had never occurred to me before, so thank you, at least I can think about it slightly differently!
These are honest, old-age gaffes.
How bleak is bleak... nurses, doctors, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, teachers, prison officers, police officers ask THEM ALL how bleak it is James.
How about Evil OBrien asks Dr Nikolai Petrovsky about the MRNA
I have ( unfortunately) been in hospital half a dozen times recently and have asked the nurses about their ‘issues’.
Firstly…..none of them said they would go on strike….ever.
They agreed their salaries were satisfactory.
They ALL said their only issue was cover for absentee’s.
If you are going to post on an open forum then at least do some research or you are simply bullshiting.👍
I was in the demonstration when the NHS workers where throwing their uniforms at Downing Street for not wanting to take an experimental Never Forget Never Forgive!
@@lestrem11as a nurse I think I’ve spoken to a lot more of them than you and can tell you that the issues are much more varied than what you’re suggesting. Nurses are struggling as much as anyone else.
@@GKEL18 That’s not what I was told. Where do you work and at what level of nursing have you achieved?
Whole Show ❤
WHAT AN IRRESPONSIBLE WAY OF DEALING WITH A SERIOUS ISSUE ENCOURAGING WORRY
The Tory prisons minister said….we had a plan…..then the election spcampaign stopped us implementing it..
Who called the election?
No mention of the crisis in the Judiciary, with clear links to the prison system. Judiciary has been barely running on fumes for years; staff cuts, courts closing - just 2 visible signs😢
JONATHAN ASHWORTH IS ONE OF THE NICEST HONEST DOWN TO EARTH POLITIONS IN THE LABOUR PARTY. I'M SO SHOCKED & SADDENED HE'S LOST HIS SEAT.
I HAVE NO DOUBT JONATHAN WILL BE BACK.
SOONER THE BETTER. 😢❤
I rather have a potato governing the US than Trump...
You'd probably be better off with the Tories tbh
@@dh1380 I very very very very very VERY much doubt that.
@DerIchBinDa. At least they'll give up power non violently
There already is a vegetable running it so you have your wish. 😂
I suppose Biden is your guy then 🤔?
You are spot on all three😂😂
A couple of months ago the news was saying this about the prisons but now it's as if it's just appeared again
The world is over this nonsense... they didn't give another candidate. Get one that is competent then we can talk. Until then, work with what we have and zip it!
My disabled sister takea after my dad - both narcissists
Bevan and Atley would be spinning like tops to hear you associate them with modern Labour.
Where do all the comments go sick of being censored by google
It's YT, not Google. 🙂
Blah blah this is because he's eighty so what's Boris and excuse
There are 3,000 people in prison indefinitely who are there because they have stolen items like a coat! They are the ones that should be set free!
James please watch 'shrinking trump' Real American Media ' so I can please stop you doubting Jo Biden. Liz, Warton UK 🇬🇧
Biden is not great, Trump is awful. When speaking about those two at work, we refer to them as 'walking dead' and 'brain dead'.
@@nothereandthereanywhere Trump 2024. He was already a great president so what are you talking about? If your referring to that sham trial which will soon be overturned then i feel for you.
Pronounced Wattun? 😉
Remeber 70% of police stations have been closed, so you can't even lock them up there.
The last lot were really bad!
People will just start stealing food openly
Tories ignored jails as they gifted over the privatisation and built no prisons because that apparently would be an admission of an issue with crime.
Just chill, James💓. Yeah, the gaffs are rough, but overall he's together on policy. Trumpedo needs to step down. Decent folks are supporting Biden. 💙🇺🇸 Google Project 2025!
😂😂😂😂
Vote 💙
the gaffs are going to torpedo the Dems. there's no way he makes it till november without cementing in the voters minds that he's not capable of running the country, and Dems pretending otherwise, that he's ok in the face of what they'll see, just makes them look untrustworthy. he's done.
@@nickwoodward819 One could say exactly the samd about his opponent. Don't you see the media play?
@@Sherluck93 Go on then. It won't make sense though.
James makes sure that everyone knows
That’s Dickensian! Only 2 kids?
Start getting that guys nephew onto a college course.
Corrected himself stop making a big deal about it what about all the lies from trump
Beware idolising Bob Geldof. He's been drinking the Tory kool aid...
I can’t listen to Obrian’s constant rants. It gives me a migraine
and yet here you are
I blame Trump! Listening to him would drive anyone up the wall!
“the entire society of the future”
@59:00 If “safety net” is one side of the welfare state, then I’d say “wings” is a great word for the other.
This is Daily Mail levels of scaremongering from James. "ThErEs GoNnA bE a CrImE sPrEe WeN pRiSoNs ArE fULL!"
Im actually surprised he'd stoop this low.
That was a deliberate dad joke sarcastically done by Biden twisting the names of putin round. Now its sort of backfired bc haters are using that to get rid of him
No, it wasn't. Jesus.
Bring in the army?😅
Correct. I earn 60k so don't get anything yet on the bread line and kids get nothing but other family who have couple that work on 40k each get the benifit. Child benifit shouldn't be based on parent earning it shouldn't be means tested.
? Child benefit is for the child's benefit solely. When the parents don't earn enough, they get subsidized so that the child can have their needs met. If you earn enough, you should be able to care for your child by yourself.
The social net, everybody pays in and when in need you can take out, is a zero sum game. It's not a bonus you get for having a child.
Maybe I mistunderstood what you really mean. But 60k is 5k per month...
Also, wdym, of course needs have to be calculated on joint income! Is there enough to support the children, or not?
The triplets question was interesting, as well, with a cap for support at two.
Why don't we send Future convicted Prisoners - to our brothers in Rwanda - for imprisonment? They would be happy to work a deal - I'm sure! (We might even save some money)? WATCH the Crime Rate take a plunge 😅
Excellent idea
A few Biden moments today James
You can’t build any prisons fast enough! So, what do you do?
To answer your question, life will become even less safe for women.
What if it was non-violent offenders? That wouldn't seem to increase the risk to women, or anyone else.
Do you remember prison ships?
Run a hot-bed system in prisons, on an eight hour shift. You can get three times the prisoners into each gaol. Human rights? Well, the Tories were gagging to get rid of our membership of that movement if I recall correctly? One shift sleeping, one shift outside in the yard, the other inside the general area. Nightmare? Too right!
Labour fault as they are in charge - any comment about starmers failure of leadership?
chew fewer crayons
Right, one whole week - why haven't they fixed the 14 years of conservative neglect and damage? Bunch of slackers! Mate, you've lost the plot (as if you'd ever found it).
OBrien ❤️ Dr Fauci
Prison service went full DEI what did you expect would happen
Always blame others instead of the basic mismanagment... that will solve all your problems! /s
Diversity and inclusion coupled with expertise is a bad thing!!! /s
What are you even talking about?
You mean that the prisons could accommodate only specific prisoner at a given time?
TRUMP 2024 BABY! LET'S GO!
Send all immigration cases to west faulkland make 3 camps 1 for prisoners 1 for all illegals and one for asylum seekers 250 ,000 could be housed in barrack style huts we fkought a war to retain the faulklands Put them to use. .the prcessing could be started on old cruise ships on way down . Simples .
You know when you have to pump up your bike tyre, then 7 days later you do it again, then 5 days, then 4, 3, 2, 1, eventually your pumping it before every ride. Get a new tyre.
