Starmer: We can't tax the rich, that would hurt the economy
Also Starmer: The British people have spoken* and Brexit is final no matter how much damage that's done and continues to do to the economy
* What the British people said was, a third wanted to Leave, a third wanted to Remain, and a third didn't know or didn't care. Also, the year after, the British people said we wanted a Blue Tory government so you should resign, Keir. What's that? Changing views? Also, in the last election, 80% of the electorate didn't vote for you so the British people speaking doesn't seem to be high on your actual list of policy drivers mate
@grayface_ghost I’d like to know from which orifice has the evidence been pulled that taxing the better off a bit more to invest damages the economy, but cutting benefits to Keynes the weapons industry doesn’t.
I suspect that "the economy" here means the wealth of the superwealthy, of course.
