He's only going to be leader in Scotland. The worry over middle class votes seems to be more about England.

Re: Monday 27th October 2014
I thought that Labour had already said, some time ago, that if elected they will call an immediate pause to UC while they carry out a six-month review into its progress and future. That sounds like an indication that it is at least possible that it be humanely destroyed.TechnicalEphemera wrote:Look Labour isn't going to say they will scrap UC. There are 7 billion fantasy benefits they would have to fund by taxes or cuts.seeingclearly wrote:HindleA wrote:J.Portes in the Guardian

This from LizzieD just about sums UC and the rest of IDS' vile work up.
Still, it does predicate that UC could possibly work.Disabled people are going hungry and losing their homes, and nobody much cares. There is still, just about, the residue of a social care system that stops them littering the streets in very large numbers, even though the popular belief that there were many scroungers has turned out to be false. But the consequences of Universal Credit, when it dawns on people that they have been lied to, don't bear thinking
With the most recent report on the pathfinder phase being based on so few claims despite a cohort of 14,000 it seems unlikely. More credible is that a) UC will be left as a timebomb for any potential successor, b) if the Tories do manage to stay in office it will be used to dismantle what's left of social provision. In fact I have wondered for a while whether this is its real purpose.
If b) happens I'm not sure whether UC or the unknown is worse.
I'm getting impatient for Labour to come out all guns blazing, do they have a plan, or is this it?
(This strategy of relying on social media just ain't workin'.)
They won't do it. The upside they point out IDS is a dick (everybody knows) and the downside they are lumbered with costs they don't want.
After the election they will review it, declare it a shambles and kill it.
And there were very very good reasons why the old single-payment scheme was divided out into separate payments. I remember that happening and it was an enormous relief when it did. Don't remember the year it happened, though.
This time, I'm gonna be stronger I'm not giving in...

Re: Monday 27th October 2014
Dear Ernst - I'm so sorry that you've been pissed on from on high by what sounds like really awful people.
As one who got kicked in the balls, metaphorically of course, by a small manufacturing company in Peterborough and in similar circumstances, you have my real sympathy for the shock and betrayal you've experienced. Now just tell yourself that they're the losers and didn't deserve you. It worked for me.
Have a big hug in the meantime though.

Happy to be called a Labour Party Tribalist as I don't consider it as an insult in the grand scheme of things!
Re: Monday 27th October 2014
I think that's the plan but when it's something that's had that much money wasted on it you need to have reasons for ending it, hence the review.

I'd hope they wouldn't either.
It isn't just that he's on the right, it's that I've never seen him be any good. We're talking about taking on the SNP.
Who I'm finding out have a Boris-like capacity for cancelling transport schemes. Including Glasgow Crossrail which would by the sound of it help those Labour heartlands that they're supposedly doing better than Labour by.

Re: Monday 27th October 2014
Boulton comes dangerously close to having a sense of humour sometimes. He once tweeted that he'd had to miss lunch because of something overrunning at the HoC (can't remember what it was now), so I delicately suggested that he could perhaps afford to miss the occasional meal; got a retweet and a favourite out of that one.Spacedone wrote:Someone posted a Vine video of that jogger running into Cameron.

Oh damn I'm leaving my sentences hanging again dangerously.
I find myself in the odd position of thinking Norman "The Chingford Skinhead" Tebbit may also possess a sense of humour too. Just finished watching the second part of "Jet! When Britain Ruled the Skies" on BBC4 which included Tebbit reminiscing about his time flying the Bristol Britannia for BOAC; it may be the first time I have ever seen him on TV without being tempted to throw a brick at it. Lovely programme though, and brought back childhood memories of flying on Comets and VC10s; wonderful aircraft, and much nicer than the tat the Americans built .....

One for Ernst that I hope will cheer him on this horrible day.
Had a discussion with robust Green Party type I know (we have mutual friends). He made fair points about Brighton situation and the back equal pay claims they had to pay.
Said council would have gone bankrupt without them doing what they did there.
Funny, they didn't just say "bring it on", like the Greens you have to sit with, isn't it?

More from Kate (who is the Shadow Spokesperson for disabled people, not Rachel Reeves)AngryAsWell wrote:If I were Kate Green I'd be livid if RR started making statements about my Brief.
"We are determined to ensure that a Labour government offers disabled people who can work the support they’d need to do so. We’ve already announced major reforms to the flawed Work Capability Assessment (WCA). It’s time to return the Work Capability Assessment to its original purpose, identifying the support a disabled person would need to be able to work. And this week, we’ve been explaining the changes we would make to replace the failing Work Programme so that employment support works more effectively for disabled people too.
It’s clear that a top-down centrally driven programme hasn’t worked. Labour will take a different approach. We will replace the Work Programme with new schemes that are contracted and managed at a much more local level, such as a city region, combined authority area or Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP). That will enable councils and local providers, who know the labour market and services best, to ensure that the right support is put in place to give people the best chance to secure local jobs."
