Founding The Fixations: How Starmer’s ‘Labour’ Tells You Whose Fault It All Is – Honest…
“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command” ~ George Orwell: 1984
Starmer’s ‘Labour’ is spending a huge amount of time trying to drum into the public that the hardships his government has planned for them are always someone else’s fault.
Not his, perish the thought! We’re supposed to forget the obvious fact that anyone with an atom of political intelligence could have told you about the Tories’ ‘black hole’ many months ago; indeed, many did. The ‘fiscally responsible’ Starmer and Reeves weren’t listening, apparently – or hoped that the public weren’t…
The SNP’s Pete Wishart was one of a number to call out the blatant ‘we didn’t know’ lie:
"The Tories 'covered it up' so well that it was predicted by practically everybody and detailed by the IFS ..." he said
The Institute for Fiscal Studies said the party was “avoiding the reality that they are effectively signed up to sharp spending cuts, while arguing over smaller changes to taxes and spending”
They couldn't have made it much plainer; there was no 'surprise black hole' - the state of the public finances was there for all to see:
"Labour continues in a conspiracy of silence on the difficulties they would face. These challenges are already perfectly clear. The books are open. A post-election routine of shock-and-horror at the state of the public finances will not cut it"
But still they try. In between, presumably, trotting out meaningless slogans, the ‘Labour’ spokespeople tasked with the daily press round try and slip the 'black hole - someone else’s fault’ line in somewhere. And absolutely, one hundred percent, definitely "Not ours"
“It’s the Tories’ fault”
“It’s the strikers’ fault”
“It’s the migrants’ fault”
“It’s the Russians' fault”
It's their fault when you, or your parents, or your Nan and Grandad, sit shivering in unheated homes. It's their fault when parents can't afford to feed their children. It's their fault when your fuel bills go up by 40% this winter. It's their fault when you can't get the medical help you need. It's their fault when your landlord puts up the rent so much that you can't afford to pay it (which isn't, incidentally, one of the 'no-fault evictions 'Labour' has banned - they can still throw you out for not paying the rent'). It's their fault that 348 of the 'Labour' MPs who promised to make your lives better voted to take the Winter Fuel Allowance away from 10 million pensioners.
We’re supposed to forget that Rachel Thieves’ inhumane plan to leave cash-strapped pensioners freezing this winter will actually end up costing more than it saves.
We’re supposed to forget that while Starmer and Reeves are claiming ‘there’s no money’ to help the poorest and most vulnerable in society, there IS £3,000,000,000.00 a year to send to Ukraine to fund NATO’s proxy war ‘for as long as it takes’.
There IS £12,000.000 a minute to spend on a ‘nuclear deterrent’ that we claim would never be used – not least because, heads up, there’s no one threatening to attack us.
There IS £150,000,000.00 to pay MPs salaries and expenses every year. There IS more than £400,000,000.00 to run the Houses of Parliament every year.
There IS £13,000,000,000.00 to refurbish the Parliamentary Estate.
There IS £376,000,000.00 to do up Buckingham Palace – oh, and there IS £45,000,000.00 extra to give to King Charles, bringing the sovereign grant up to £132,000,000.00 a year.
These things are not ‘the fault’ of any of Starmer’s scapegoats. Neither are any of them at fault for the fact that Starmer's 'Labour' government intends to take money out of your pocket with cuts to benefits, taxes on pensions, cuts to public services, and increased fuel bills.
But he’ll tell you that they are – and the UK media will help him do it.
Ultimately – the electorate – the sheeple of the UK, are supposed to believe that the UK economy works like a household budget. It doesn’t.
In a country with a sovereign currency, as we have in the UK, money is created by the Bank of England at the behest of the government. It doesn’t come from revenues, from tax income – we can’t only spend what the country gets in tax.
We create money. We don’t ‘borrow’ it from anyone. And we don’t ‘owe’ it to anyone. But as long as successive governments keep feeding us the line about ‘balancing the public purse’ they somehow make people believe they do owe it, that it ‘must be paid back’.
And paid back by YOU. Therefore, they claim, with as sad a face as they can manage, there 'must' be cuts. ‘Tough decisions’ must be taken. Oddly, those decisions are always to the detriment of the poorest, those with the least financial influence.
Not to the detriment of the people who make the ‘tough decisions’. Keir Starmer won’t be shivering this winter, nor will Rachel Reeves. YOU pay their bills. YOU pay for their £3,500 annual fuel allowance.
Not one single 'Labour' MP will be any worse off because of their political choices. YOU will.
The two-child benefit cap won’t be a hardship to any of the largely brainwashed clones Starmer has shoehorned in as 'Labour' MPs; they can claim more than £5,000.00 a year for each child they have, up to three. On top of their salaries, rent and bills, of course…
