Starmer to pledge cuts to NHS waiting lists and crime amidst plunging approval ratings
Jump to: Newest in thread
Keir Starmer will pledge this week to undertake the most ambitious programme for government “in a generation”, as he sets out new targets to refocus his premiership amid falling approval ratings and the first resignation from his cabinet.
The Guardian reports “in a political gamble designed to draw a line under the bumpy opening months in office, it is understood that the prime minister will tie himself to a series of political milestones to cut NHS waiting lists and crime and improve living standards and early years education. They are designed to demonstrate tangible improvements to voters’ lives and be delivered by the next election.”
Starmer’s first net approval rating as prime minister – the difference between those who think he is performing well or badly – stood at +19%. He now has a net approval of -32%. It includes a drop of 8 points in the past fortnight.
Also silence on the promised 1.5 million new homes and stopping small boats.
Looks like he’s aware it not going to plan |

Given the performance since July I wouldn't trust him and the rest of his clowns with producing anything other than more cock ups, u-turns, dodgy dealings and pathetic student gesture politics. |

Having a relaunch a few months into a new Govt seems rather desperate and concerning. Also sounds like a lot of promises to spend more money with rather less detail on how this will be generated. No doubt our 'best health service in the world' will get a few more billion to help it along. |

The Telegraph reports that in polling Trump is more popular in the UK than Starmer.
Maybe when he has finished his final Term in the US we can bring Trump over here to sort things out. We will probably need someone with a radical agenda and some guts after four more years of Labour failure. |

To improve living standards in the UK he would need to remove the increased taxation on businesses so they can continue to invest and employ people plus keep prices down which combats inflation....and that ain't going to happen. |

Not surprised, Trumps message is America first.
Starmer is not a global leader, and at home the wheels are falling off after four months. |

Sadly Starmer and his version of Labour Government has done the damage even he pulled off all the pledges he won't win the people over, after all improvements are to be expected as part of the job not damage and then improve and say look what I've achieved. A few Labour councils did some damage while the Tories were in power.
Starmer thinks he's a business man, he's far from it. |

"Labour really do need to be out of government ASAP really, but the first thing to send that message to them is to not vote for them in the coming council elections in May"
Is that preferable, or still willing to start civil war and kill your fellow countrymen to get a change in government? |

"If Donald Trump is even more popular than Keir Starmer then that's saying something in itself
Trump will hopefully end the Ukraine war. Nobody else has. "
This could keep inflation down if energy and fule prices drop, but don't know how quick this will.be done.

Both very much needed.
Any detail on how he plans to achieve both goals?  |

So if the local elections go the way you want. You'll not be looking to start killing people?

"If I was you, I worry less about me and worry more about yourself "
I'm not worried about starting a civil war. It's not at all on my agenda.
Other people advocating for violence and war because they don't like the PM. Is a worrying state of affairs. |
