Haha we will see the only true party is reform you will see by next election when we’ve got 1 million migrants a year. Labour and the tories are a fucking joke and have been for years.
Even if they wanted to, it is unlikely that the EU would reconsider at this time. First, they would have to be persuaded that the next government would not simply reverse the position again. We can't do the hokey-cokey with EU membership. In any case, the re-admission process would take years and years. It absolutely could not happen in the lifetime of this parliament. Sorry to let reality intrude on your dreams (and mine) !
It won't become less expensive and because the taxpayer pool probably won't be entirely allocated to it as it should be (like our road infrastructure for example), the service will probably get even worse than it is now. Do you not remember how bad it was when it was government owned?
The ai nonsense could be a way of growing the economy to put more money into social services... allow it. Him going on like Nixon about crime is defo a fault though.
Increase in policing actually has shown to encourage pro-social behaviours (such as employment and better education) in poor communities. Do you have a problem with those communities? "The results show that citizens who perceive police partnerships favorably report fewer problems related to incivilities and also express higher levels of safety. Findings front models including cross-level interaction terms indicate that the positive outcomes associated with police partnerships are not restricted to citizens residing in affluent neighborhoods. In our ecological analysis, we find that police community collaboration is associated with higher aggregate quality of life assessments and that community policing as a form of public social control mediates the adverse effects of concentrated disadvantage. The findings support social-psychological and ecological theories on which community policing practices are partially based." (Source: Can Community Policing Help The Truly Disadvantaged? M. Reisig, 2004.)
@@nota-comedian2487 You're conflating community policing with general policing practices. It's a specific way of operating designed to cut out crime at the source by having officers work in a more preventative, local way. It's really good and definitely works. "Tough on crime" however, appeals to something else though. The phrasing dates back to Nixon in the US, and generally ends up leading to minor offenses being prosecuted in a rlly draconian way. If you posture by repeating the line "tough on crime", it inherently has pressure to up prosecutions and average sentences. A lot of the most serious crimes are difficult to prosecute - so you end up with minor stuff like mean social media posts and possession of small quantities of substances being pursued heavily as a placeholder. So as great as community policing is, that's not where his language is leading. Bare in mind that starmer was a prosecutor, hes more of a hardliner than someone used to preventative approaches. If it's used on serious crimes - great! Some need a heavy handed approach. But it wont be.
@@Me-lm6yd oh right, I didn't realise. Thanks for your comment, it's really informative. I'm very torn when it comes to things like crime and law since my sense of morality is weak, but I definitely do think we need harsher sentences for some crimes (e.g. women get lighter sentences than men for the same crimes. This has been an issue especially when it comes to things like child abuse which women are often let off lightly on). But overall I agree with your sentiment!
I was happy when they mentioned they would reform the nhs but then they go on about ai and making them work outside their work hours???? what the fuck is their plan there
Yeah this sounds like a horrible idea. The reason NHS waiting lists are so high is a lack of manpower, the reason the NHS lacks manpower is because working for it sucks and all the doctors are leaving to go private. This will make that worse and make the manpower shortage more accute.
Tbh they did it very cleverly. The no theatrics, no chaos just sensible costed policies approach is exactly what the people need to hear after 5+ years of chaos. Helps that it actually is a sensible collection of policies
Except it's not acc costed. Going off of the final projected year of revenue and spending (ie 2028-2029) assumes a whole bunch of things in the 4-5 years leading up to it. They're setting themselves up for failure and broken pledges, and just blame it on 'fiscal constraint'
Honestly I'm satisfied. There's some great stuff in there, like Nationalising railways and improvements in house building and mental health, as well as not demonising nuclear power. Some is quite disappointing or underwhelming, like no mention of Brexit, food poverty or taxing the rich. But overall it's more than I was thinking expecting given how lukewarm and playing down the Labour campaign has been. Tl;dr: much more ambitious than I had thought, but the bar was very low. Still incredibly unambitious and daring for what the country needs. But hopefully it's a gradual step in the right direction. Breaking away from the far right will take many years, so even tugging us back to the centre is a start.
Starmer is trying to pull in centrists and fair weather Tory voters. He's going to keep any Brexit plans close to his chest since they likely answer is a referrendum to rejoin the EU, I suspect in the 2nd half of his government's term, but groundwork behind the scenes will start in advance.
I don't think "unambitious" is the right word, I think it's "realistic". This is a manifesto that is completely deliverable, just imagine how much overall trust in politics will improve if in 5 years time Labour can point to most/every line in this manifesto and say "we achieved it".
Remember that even though it's basically a guatanteed win for Labour, still go out and vote. We don't want idle voters weakening Labour's majority in parlament.
Labour has been too complacent with all the tory mishaps. Imo the ideal outcome is they win by as small a majority as possible. They need to know their votes aren't guaranteed come the next election, and they have to actually work to earn votes from the people

06:08 yeah, like that will work. They are already losing so many nurses due to overwork and your solution is to overwork them more? The problem is the pay not matching the work, if you raise the wages for these employees then more of the nurses the UK are making will stay. The problem is that they are training nurses only for them to move to other countries where they are paid more.
Labour need to fix the tax system. It is totally unfair to take £400 from a months pay. After food, bills,clothing,transport and rent - most all taxed!! We are lucky to say “ wow I have £200 left for myself .”

There is one thing that they should do, and that's deal with Brexit. It's the biggest elephant in the room that few, if any are addressing.
Lib Dem’s were taking about it. They want to rejoin the EU
Even if they wanted to, it is unlikely that the EU would reconsider at this time. First, they would have to be persuaded that the next government would not simply reverse the position again. We can't do the hokey-cokey with EU membership. In any case, the re-admission process would take years and years. It absolutely could not happen in the lifetime of this parliament.

Nationalising trains is desperately needed. Its shockingly expensive
It won't become less expensive and because the taxpayer pool probably won't be entirely allocated to it as it should be (like our road infrastructure for example), the service will probably get even worse than it is now.
Do you not remember how bad it was when it was government owned?
Change "tough on crime" to "tough on corporate crime" and get rid of the AI nonsense, Keir.
The ai nonsense could be a way of growing the economy to put more money into social services... allow it.
Him going on like Nixon about crime is defo a fault though.
Why do you support violent crime?
Increase in policing actually has shown to encourage pro-social behaviours (such as employment and better education) in poor communities. Do you have a problem with those communities?
"The results show that citizens who perceive police partnerships favorably report fewer problems related to incivilities and also express higher levels of safety. Findings front models including cross-level interaction terms indicate that the positive outcomes associated with police partnerships are not restricted to citizens residing in affluent neighborhoods. In our ecological analysis, we find that police community collaboration is associated with higher aggregate quality of life assessments and that community policing as a form of public social control mediates the adverse effects of concentrated disadvantage. The findings support social-psychological and ecological theories on which community policing practices are partially based." (Source: Can Community Policing Help The Truly Disadvantaged? M. Reisig, 2004.)
@@nota-comedian2487 You're conflating community policing with general policing practices. It's a specific way of operating designed to cut out crime at the source by having officers work in a more preventative, local way. It's really good and definitely works.
"Tough on crime" however, appeals to something else though. The phrasing dates back to Nixon in the US, and generally ends up leading to minor offenses being prosecuted in a rlly draconian way.
If you posture by repeating the line "tough on crime", it inherently has pressure to up prosecutions and average sentences. A lot of the most serious crimes are difficult to prosecute - so you end up with minor stuff like mean social media posts and possession of small quantities of substances being pursued heavily as a placeholder.
So as great as community policing is, that's not where his language is leading. Bare in mind that starmer was a prosecutor, hes more of a hardliner than someone used to preventative approaches. If it's used on serious crimes - great! Some need a heavy handed approach. But it wont be.
@@Me-lm6yd oh right, I didn't realise. Thanks for your comment, it's really informative.
I'm very torn when it comes to things like crime and law since my sense of morality is weak, but I definitely do think we need harsher sentences for some crimes (e.g. women get lighter sentences than men for the same crimes. This has been an issue especially when it comes to things like child abuse which women are often let off lightly on).
But overall I agree with your sentiment!
I find your election content extremely helpful.
It would be great if you put all your manifesto explainer videos into a playlist.

"We'll increase NHS appointment availability by trying to make staff work outside their contracted hours"
'Incentivise'. Specifically not 'make' - that is disinformation. If someone offers me a few extra hours at overtime rate, I'll take it.
"But we cannot say anything about increasing their salary, or even out of hours compensation"
I was happy when they mentioned they would reform the nhs but then they go on about ai and making them work outside their work hours???? what the fuck is their plan there
I'm a nurse in the NHS. I already work outside my contracted hours because I need the money. So that idea from Wes Streeting is rubbish.
Yeah this sounds like a horrible idea.
The reason NHS waiting lists are so high is a lack of manpower, the reason the NHS lacks manpower is because working for it sucks and all the doctors are leaving to go private.
This will make that worse and make the manpower shortage more accute.

Honestly I'm satisfied. There's some great stuff in there, like Nationalising railways and improvements in house building and mental health, as well as not demonising nuclear power.
Some is quite disappointing or underwhelming, like no mention of Brexit, food poverty or taxing the rich.
But overall it's more than I was thinking expecting given how lukewarm and playing down the Labour campaign has been.
Tl;dr: much more ambitious than I had thought, but the bar was very low. Still incredibly unambitious and daring for what the country needs. But hopefully it's a gradual step in the right direction. Breaking away from the far right will take many years, so even tugging us back to the centre is a start.
Absolutely, but I hope they keep their promises
The far right 😂
Shame they didnt tax the rich. Its not a tax on ambition its a tax on greed.
Starmer is trying to pull in centrists and fair weather Tory voters. He's going to keep any Brexit plans close to his chest since they likely answer is a referrendum to rejoin the EU, I suspect in the 2nd half of his government's term, but groundwork behind the scenes will start in advance.
I don't think "unambitious" is the right word, I think it's "realistic". This is a manifesto that is completely deliverable, just imagine how much overall trust in politics will improve if in 5 years time Labour can point to most/every line in this manifesto and say "we achieved it".
Remember that even though it's basically a guatanteed win for Labour, still go out and vote. We don't want idle voters weakening Labour's majority in parlament.
Labour has been too complacent with all the tory mishaps. Imo the ideal outcome is they win by as small a majority as possible. They need to know their votes aren't guaranteed come the next election, and they have to actually work to earn votes from the people
I'd rather not have transphobes in power.
