My major concern is that Labour have very much locked themselves into this course of action. They've consistently promised no tax rises and no spending cuts, and reaffirmed that promise after the election. So the only way for them to raise funding is to stimulate economic growth. If they pull this off it'll go down as one of the biggest economic turnarounds in our country's history. But if they fail and need to raise taxes or introduce austerity measures, nobody will ever trust Starmer again. I suppose we'll wait and see.

Timpson (the key-cutting business) has been vastly run by ex-offenders who have proven to be the most hard-working employees. The CEO of Timpson, James Timpson, has been appointed as Minister for Prisons, Parole and Probation. His ideology is not giving custodial sentences for petty offences to parents who shoplift to feed their children, but rather, to offer them a job at Timpson, where thy can earn a salary, and therefore, have no need in committing such crimes - elevating the issue of prisons being overcapacity. This model is also used in The Netherlands, it is called "Community Sentencing" Community Sentence Explained: A community sentence combines some form of punishment with activities carried out in the community. It could mean, for example, that an offender must: - Carry out up to 300 hours of unpaid work, for example removing graffiti - Have alcohol or drug treatment to help tackle the reasons why they have committed crimes in the first place - Keep to a curfew to be in a particular place at certain times - keeps them out of trouble - Being obliged to live at a particular address - Being prohibited from travelling overseas - Undertaking a rehabilitation activity requirement - Taking part in a programme to help change offending behaviour - Being forbidden to take part in particular activities - Meeting an exclusion requirement, which means not being allowed to go to particular places - Undergoing: - Mental health treatment - Drug rehabilitation - Alcohol treatment - Alcohol abstinence and monitoring requirement This punishes offenders, and changes offenders’ behaviour so they don’t commit crime in the future. It also gives back to the community.

Many governments have shied away from that, because those top-level roles in the departments and ministries are basically "lobbyists" and "administrators" for those departments and ministries. They obviously have some responsibilities on the subject matter, but their main role is getting things done within their department - and that is a skill politicians usually have, as they know how to, you know, do politics. So we have to see how this goes - I hope they can have more of an impact and don't drown in the administrative graveyard that you can find in the minefields of whitehall.

So far pretty positive about the changes, though missing a mention thay the Labour governement also immediatly sent additional aid to Ukraine, which is based.

NIMBY planning laws might be important but so are environmental considerations especially areas like migration bird landings, and rare flowers; and also food security. These should be done where possible in brown and grey belt land, and areas where there is neither SSSI's or food growth.

Rayner as Housing Secretary..the Irony.

steel surely, not steal 😂

Labour putting people with xp on the gov is such a move

Recently I enjoy listening to other countries politics rather than my own (US). Seems they made more progress in a week than us in months

So the government is pushing policies that will encourage the construction of houses. But doesn't say anything about corporations buying up property.

These changes sound incredibly sane. Dare I hope for actual improvement in the years to come?

I think Starmer is essentially a technocrat and that´s fine, as long as you have some balance in the cabinet. The problem is his cabinet is largely full of Keir Starmer clones, the only ones that are interesting are the prisons minister and the science minister. I think it´s dangerous to fill a cabinet full of people who 100% agree with you. I think this government will be more competent at running departments etc than the Tories (not hard to achieve), but Starmer doesn´t get that you can´t solve all problems just by running departments more efficiently. Like other Liberal democracies, the UK has a number of huge crises, the first and foremost being wealth inequality and it´s contributing greatly to political instability. The other one is whether or not we want to have a pause on muliticulturalism or whether we want it to continue. The UK won´t cease to be multicultural and I think most people don´t want a total cease in all honesty, but there is definitely a debate as to if we´re becoming too diverse and having some fragmentation. I tend to be on the more liberal side of that debate myself, but we can´t just wish the issue away, like Starmer wants to, it has to be tackled. I don´t think Starmer really understands or cares about these problems and it could be his undoing. He doesn´t deal with opposition well either, he just tends to shut people down or kick them out of the party if they disagree with him.

I suppose you could say that Kier is a product of the situation the Labour party has found themselves in. They want someone who runs a tight ship by not allowing dissent within the party and someone so utterly boring that they will likely not get involved in scandals. I actually think it's a pretty good strategy for getting into and staying in government.

@@stormyprawn well, they kind of won 2024 by default, the Tories had screwed up so badly that no opposition party could fail to lose that election. The thing is if Reform hadn´t have run, Starmer wouldn´t have won a landslide, he may have even had to do a coalition with the Libdems. Likewise, structural stupidity is a real thing and it´s what happens when you have no ideological diversity. I.e the Tory party went crazy, largely because Johnson kicked out all the Remainers and all the liberal Tories. I have a feeling the same thing will happen to Starmer´s Labour if he just has a cabinet of fairly hard Blairites and doesn´t consider any ideas from further left.

Might it not be a good idea not to make assumptions about what he does and doesn't know and care about until he's been in office for more than a few days? That's an awful lot of baseless assumptions you're making.

@Minimmalmythicist

Ай бұрын

​@@talideon The assumptions are not baseless. 1)My first paragraph is true, essentially there´s nobody in his shadow cabinet who isn´t from his faction of the party. I suspect he thought even Thornberry might give him some opposition. Even Blair had people like Clare Short and Frank Dobson in his cabinet. There is no ideological diversity at all. That´s not "an assumption", that´s a fact. All these people have histories you can easily look up. 2) That´s how Starmer has operated during his election campaign, he´s very reluctant to deal with fundamental questions about how the country should actually look. It´s not part of how his mind works. That´s not a problem if he has people in the cabinet who gets that, but so far he´s filled the cabinet with people who think like him. 3)He doesn´t deal with opposition well. Blair and Brown, whatever their faults, didn´t just shut people down who disagreed with them. They knew how to make their case. Starmer very much does. Plenty of party activists have challenged him publically and he just stared at them blankly and then had them expelled. 4) He may well get re-elected and I suspect he will be better than the Tories, but that might not be good enough in 2029 and the election results show he has a big potential challenge to his left as well as his right. That´s not "baseless", that´s based on information from last election results.

'Labour' have not said they will cancel the Tories 'voucher' scheme.Disabled people are the most vulnerable in society and the Tories 'voucher' scheme has caused the disabled a tremendous amount of stress and anxiety. So I'll reserve judgement on this 'Labour' government.

One thing Labour has really stumbled on though is from the Health Ministry introducing bans on puberty blockers until the age of 18, meaning a big hurdle for trans people and trans rights. This is supposedly one of the most cautious and safest things to take for trans individuals, at that, which makes it absurd to block. I only know of this because of my trans-girlfriend keeping tabs on this. Neither of us is British but she makes a point of staying in the loop all over the Western world considering the democratic insecurities that are happening everywhere.
