    So Tories screwed our economic situations and Keir’s Labour will keep us here.

    What is the point in a massive majority if you’ll do what the predecessors did? Power for power’s sake?

        Yup, and for the avoidance of doubt:

        Labour used to be funded by trade unions. Now it’s just a 5th of total funding. Corporate takeover of the Labour party. Of course, businesses will be wanting a return on investment here.

    The pcs (civil servant) union agreed a 10% pay demand this year. Sir Keith might get lucky with something like a 5% deal this year on good faith alone, but next year will be brutal if he thinks he can keep that up.
