This is really really desperate stuff from the tories.
Really? - He is well stuffed when talking about Wales - 'I'm glad my mother was dying in Wales' is rather a desperate claim.
I look forward to them telling lazy arse GP's to actually do the job they were doing before Blair really screwed us over by trying to buy them off.
Early Friday Finish - that's a win for everyone
Tory vomit.Well put.
He won’t last long if he isn’t prepared to word hard. Let’s see if he manages to survive as long as Truss did!
Red and blue vomit
LABOUR vomit cos that's the mess their gonna leave . Before they've even started, VOTE REFORM!!!
The point the interviewer was desperate to make about waiting times for ambulances, it would help if he looked at the map, large areas of Wales are rural, mountainous and a long way from the nearest hospital so ambulance wait times are going to be longer simply because of the geography. In addition, whilst the management of the NHS may be devolved it's funding isn't with funds being apportioned by Westminster which obviously impacts service provision giving the cutbacks to the Tories as their claims about increased funding are mainly additional funds to pay for increased costs as a result of inflation,
The problem with Ambulance wait times is to do with throughput at the hospital, they have to stay with patients till their handed over.
And
Everyone has had cuts to social care by councils due to Austerity which further clogs up the system
Most of the funding went to the private sector
Surely, Labour just baited the Tories into this, so that they can say "We take no lectures from those who partied every night through COVID, even whilst the late Queen sat on her own next to a coffin."
Starmer will have already done a 10-11 hour day by 6pm
It’s an excellent idea to finish work, as late as 6pm, on a Friday . As for it being bait for the Tories, perhaps their guilty hypocritical responses are what we have had 14 years to expect.
@@californiadreamin8423 what's going to happen when Farage finds out Sue Gray wants to shut the bars down during the day to stop the drinking culture 🤔
@@californiadreamin8423 I hadn't watched the video when I made that comment and have just seen Wes come straight out with the response I expected. Labour are playing Chess, Sunak can't even see the traps anymore.
The tories are imploding! Well said!
Liebor are no better
To be fair BoJo did turn up at times in the week and especially if there was cake to blame during Covid.
Johnson was the most indolent PM in history.
Didn't Wes say NHS doctors should be paid less for overtime?.. 🤔
A comment made in a recent interview.
He and starmer take private health donations 😊
@ImloyaltoScotlandonly like Blair did 😂
Vote for That Party led by Starmer in haste. Regret at leisure, when Britain is not Britain anymore.
Tory wooden top
Britain hasn't been Britain since May 2010. It's been a perpetual downward trend into national bankruptcy from the minute they took office with one even more deluded and inept right wing puppet after another.
@@GrahamFearnley No, Reform!
vote for pedro
😂😂😂 Napoleon Dynamite 😂😂😂
I would if I could! 😂
It's a pity that Sunak and the Tory party didn't put their "working hours" to better use! Let us hope that Starmer and the Labour party do a much better job - there's plenty of time in the day before 6.00PM!! [They certainly can't do a worse job than the Tories have in the past 14 years].
They did partying while people died
Labour will change the country beyond recognition. They have said as much. I'm not sure most people truly realise what that means.
Yet another foolish mistake from the Tories.
A good work life balance is where the country is.
Where the Tories are is anyone's guess...........they don't know if they are up their **** or on their elbows.
That said it may well have been a bit of bait which Labour put on the hook.
Labour good at defending themselves. Starmer said this on virgin radio
Starmer is one of the hardest working Israeli lobbyists we have ever seen. To question his work eithic is absurd. Just take his time a DPP when he worked hard to ensure those state sponsored domestic terrorists who murdered 14 Uk citizens on a peaceful civil rights march in Derry would never face prosecution.
In more recent times he has worked hard to give cover and support to Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
Starmer is a very hard working Tory, and deserves credit for it.
What is with those evil eyes of Streeting?? Be afraid, be very afraid!
He is in the Starmer mould: power at any cost. He will be as corrupt and deceitful as any tory has been
Another tory mystic meg
@@GrahamFearnleythere's very few Tories left, only concerned pessimists that don't believe any politician's weasel words.
What is it with Sunak’s inability to run this country? At the moment I AM petrified…….
Pathetic. Friday cannot come soon enough.
Hang on, how many ‘ holidays’ has Sunak had in the name of ‘work’.
It makes sense to use Private companies to ease the waiting list- WHY NOT!!!
Vote independent as both parties are the same
No they’re definitely not.
No they’re not.
Zombie
Tell me the difference!
Did Sunak sign the bit of paper waiving his rights under the EU overtime directive?
As a teacher I'm not working my more than 37 hours per week. Would if overtime was offered like the rest of the public service
The Conservatives really are pathetic.
Ritchie Sunak's biggest lie to Britain;
"Tory government integrity, professionalism and accountability at every level" -
25/10/22 outside number 10.
2 million appointments a year equals 2 appointments a year for all new immigrants that will come to the UK next year under Labour...not a single new appointment for British people
Another example of petty fighting between two underwhelming and weak leaders. Luckily there is a third, much stronger candidate for the UK. I’m voting for Nigel Farage and Reform UK.
Strongest liar.
Are the tories anti semitic?
Chillax™ sounds like a canabis based laxative
The number of people off sick from work on nhs waiting lists is going to shock our economy if labours plans work out. The amount of lost productivity due to these waiting lists is going to prove such a difference maker imo.
I wonder how many WORKING CLASS FRIENDS Rishi Sunak have Today!
What’s a women?
Starmer has a terrible approach to office life, he has said he won't even have parties at Number 10 if Britain were faced with another pandemic.
The Tories the shameless desperation party 😂😁🍿
What does Starmers wife religious belief have to do with him taking Friday off?
Starmer said that’s why he’s finishing ‘early’ on Friday.
Remember that Tory playing on his I Pad during a HoC meeting?
Remember Mogg sleeping on the Front Bench?
Remeber Bunter failing to
turn up for the first FIVE Covid Cobra meetings?
Same old Tories. Same old hypocrisy.
Starmer Mr Sleepy unelectable. Labour won't win GE. Starmer is evasive,dull, weak
Would prefer a grounded, human PM who values family and recognises work/life balance over a corporatist, Thatcher-lite Tory world view.
Stammer should have kept Corbyn 😊
When there was no so called no money left. we didn't have poo poo in the tap water rivers and sea. 😂😂
Starmer's Labour showed nil opposition to the Conservatives bad decisions over the last few years, they were there and just looked on and joined in. Reform has my vote.
Who the hell doe's Starmer think he is? Biden .
Starmer can obviously manage time better than Sunak. Sunak focuses on money making - any time anywhere! In like manner the D-Day fiasco revolved around the time that he spent rather than the occasion. He decided that it was a matter of devoting time and decided that he would spend most of it in the UK with no inkling of the quality!
Sorry but your complaining about how the NHS is managed...most likely by NHS managers in a union that funds the Labour party...nothing to do with the current government 😂😂😂
The front of this bloke to defend Labour and the Welsh NHS. Went to Cardiff A+E needing stitches and people were queuing outside and sitting on the pavement.
He says that he won't increase NHS spending at the same time as saying, he will utilise the private sector that will, as he concedes, be making a profit, ergo it will perform the same outcomes as the NHS but at a higher cost.
If there isn't any more money to finance the NHS, does that mean that there will be a separate pot for the private sector or, that the existing NHS budget will provide the necessary funding for the private sector?
Duplicitous comes to mind.
Some proper knuckle dragging reform and tory voters on here losing heads .... great to see 😂😂😂😂😂
Funny, an actual professional who can manage his time, stop the press, only a few days to go! 😂
To be fair to BoJo hiding in fridge factories and cake disruption his time table a lot.
Keir’s wife has a Jewish heritage well that explains alot
Anti semitic tories .....oh the shock
Starmer says he never works after 6:00 PM on a Friday and never has done, then he definitely did break the COVID laws when he held his 10:00PM beer and Curry night on Friday April 30th 2021. By his own volition he wouldn't have been working at that time on a Friday night.
Talk about shooting yourself in the foot that's exactly what he has done.
He can't have it both ways
Own goal scored Starmer
Why are sky presenters repeating a tory lie? Starmer never once said he's planning to work 4 days
3 days is enough he is keeping to Tory spending parameters, not much to do.
Google is streeting privatizing England's nhs
Streeting and starmer taking huge donations from corporations just like the massively corrupt USA system
Great guy
Straight talker 👌🏾
Vote Reform.
Vote Reform everybody.
There are 2 guaranteed to work ways for the Tories to gain more vote. First, promise more tax cuts. Don't matter if they will actually do it, just need to promise it. Second, tell bigger, bolder lies, more loudly, more often. Trump has proven beyond doubt that this is an effective tactic. If the lie is what people want to hear, they will chose to believe it.
Tax cuts are a small token to gullible people to enable Tories to carry on milking the country through privatisation of public services. If they even follow through with them.
Scottish labour doesnt exist its not a registered party in Scotland and its a branch office of London labour
Totally pathetic attempt by sunak well sunak no one is listening any more its reform for me
Vote reform
Bnp branch
The man has no emotion in his face, just a parrot
My pay hadn’t keep up .
So if his family has Jewish heritage why isn’t he sticking up for Israel 🇮🇱.
To scared to upset voters.
Change his mind with the weather.
Vote reform.
Tories in Government keep in fighting make way for a Labour Government on Friday
@@DaleHanson-nw9yc enjoy losing your nhs liebor lie just as the Tory party did
The propaganda coming from Labour and the Conservatives is the reason to vote for neither. VOTE REFORM❤FOR THE ONLY PARTY THAT HAS BRITAIN AT HEART AND TALKS COMMON SENSE.
Is common sense an unimplementable "contract"?
Or is it just pure r*cis*?
Didn’t he just say waiting lists have been affected by strikes?
So what was wrong when rishi said that??
Because who caused the strikes?
ARE PEOPLE THAT THICK
👎🏻
Even during an election, Starmer is surely entitled to some family time.
No
I became antisemitic because of Sir Keir.
😂
Here here l agree with Wes streeting he will make a brilliant minister
Enjoy him privatizing your nhs one Google does streeting take private health care donations your answer pops up
Liebor have ran Welsh nhs into the ground
Nice one Wes!
Lazy effing 😂 joker, won't work on a Friday.
Past 6pm by that time it's likely he's already done a 10+ hour day
Johnson started drinking at lunchtime
@SlowhandGreg ok that seems reasonable. I think we should all transition to a 4 day week, in the AI age.
@vinay7397 there's talk Sue Gray wants the bars closing during the day to cut out the drinking culture and cut down on sexual harassment. I'd also expect a shift away from late nights and better structure.
With the sort of majority he will get there's going to be a lot of mp's who don't get appointments.
jewish heratige( ill take the bits of judasim i like and use it) well if your not ultra authodox then no need to have friday off.
So true. Real judaism is much closer to islam
There are people who just cling to tribal labels without real faith
There is such thing as cultural Judaism. People celebrate Christmas in the UK even though the majority are not Christian.
@@peterjohnson1091 does not change the fact the that people of any religion do what suits them and if that is using it to take a friday off or not work sunday, or i did not commit a sin because im so religious hypocrisy...
their on the way here Friday ,
from France ,
Labour will open the gates of hell ,
from day 1 .
😂
Where not a Jewish country Sunday is our rest day it’s England not israel
since when did tories start wearing red ties?
When they both became the same party with the same lies 😂😂😂😂
When the country voted the Toff Tories into power for over 14 years.
Vote Labour to restore honesty and prosperity to the UK - just like in the last Labour government.
😂
He has a new saying "lifts all ships"(including dinghies) more like sinks all ships...... VOTE REFORM FOR TRUTH AND ACTION
Vlad Farage
Reform are just tories from another private school. Tax policy that are best for 70k+ earners.
@@StratsRUs4 day Starmer 😂
"I am in no doubt that the party and its senior leadership are not racist. However, as the vast majority of candidates are indeed racist, misogynistic, and bigoted, I do not wish to be directly associated with people who hold such views that are so vastly opposing to my own and what I stand for.". And that's from a Reform candidate.
@@tim66612343 Exactly.
Labours Plan :
step 1 : open the gates of hell ,
step 2 : print money and increase inflation ,
step 3 : tax working class people ,
step 4 : increase council tax above max ,
step 5 : Green tax everyone , will be a cold winter .

What a load of nonsense from someone who pushes a party that will instigate the biggest tax break for the wealthy in political history by raising the 40% threshold to 70k costing 60 billion
Like listening to Tory BS list there and we have had 14 years of it so 🥱
Labour plan .
Step 1 : tax the rich , oh no they left the country ,
back-up plan : tax all working people and print money
bot bot bot bot bot
Tax, tax, tax....like listening to Tories who are crazy about Tax and not wanting to pay any.
cold outside and it is summer ,
Labour green tax will bankrupt everyone
Oh boo hoo, have people woken up to the fact the Tories have broken everything?
Ahh the average Tory voter, yes Labour have caused the cold summer, behold their terrifying weather magic! Tremble in fear!
A £1 spent on green infrastructure returns £1.6 in gdp growth
