Pistol_Pete posted:Even the centrist dads of the Guardian comments are taken aback at this one. I think it's a really, really awful miscalculation for Starmer and it shows up the lack of political experience that we keep talking about. He should never have announced something like this without at least getting the tacit agreement of all the major unions; instead, he's clearly sprung it on them and they're reacting angrily. Just awful politics even in the most functional sense. Nothing Starmer has done makes sense if his goal is to win elections. Everything Starmer has done makes sense if his goal is to ensure that only right-wing politicians can win elections.

The Labour membership aren't real people. Real people believe what the Sun newspaper tells them to believe, so that's who I, a Labour MP, choose to represent.

WhatEvil posted:They're running with this whole "Leave the car at home! The train is really green!" poo poo, but like, if you already have a car, odds are, getting to where you're going in the car is going to be easier and cheaper - and it's essentially guaranteed to be *much* cheaper if you're travelling with more than one person. Absolutely. If you need to make a journey from Leeds to London and back with one other person, it makes perfect ecological sense to take the train. However, it makes no economic sense at all. The cost of train tickets in this country is ridiculous.

Maybe Starmer wants to step down but wants to ensure the PLP get to pick his replacement instead of the membership

I didn't really know much about heat pumps until a quick round of Googling a few minutes ago. It looks like: * Heat pumps are more expensive than boilers to buy/install * Heat pumps heat more slowly than boilers * Heat pumps are much more efficient than boilers - 2 times as good as gas, 6 times as good as electric * Heat pumps cost a lot less to run due to said efficiency, and are much better for the environment * Heat pumps and boilers last about as long (10-15 years) Is that about right?

How many other police officers are convicted criminals? Would it be wrong to suggest that convicted criminals should be automatically fired from their jobs as police officers?

These days I'd vote yes to a £100/hr minimum wage just because I know whatever actually comes of it - if anything - will be super watered down in any case.
