Same!
I doubt it can be any worse than the last fourteen years. I’m choosing to have faith in Starmer and Labour. I need to be optimistic because what we just got rid of was so monumentally poor.
Deluded
We've been thinking like this since the 40s. People do forget how the conservatives managed to get in for 14 years.
ww3 is coming g, if not that then climate collapse is a certainty
@@Paragon62 You can always vote for the Don't Knows in the next election.
@@Jack-uy7ieand why - because LABOUR destroyed this country. The Tories just carried it on with the same policies as Blair and his Davos friends. They are the same Uniparty of Davos. We’re not allowed a choice unless it’s the one chosen for us. Hence Brexit Derangement, Trump Derangement and shenanigans like those in France to block the party with the most votes and in Germany to block the AfD from running at all. How go you not see how wrong that is? IT’S NOT UP TO THEM it’s supposed to be up to US.
My favourite quote from this show.." This is serious. They actually want to make things better"
I'm impressed with what I've seen so far with new government 🤞
That won't last too long....

@@SplashTasty ooo hurty words 👌
I’m a believer in Starmer and have been for some time ! It was like watching a chess master the way he dispatched boris the liar and every step since , he is a facilitator building a team without fear of surrounding himself with talented individuals , the end result will be solving problems as opposed to covering them up or exploiting them for personal gain.
Bring on the new era 🤝
I didn't think Starmer would be much better than the Tories but he's done everything right so far and I'm impressed.
@@direnova6284yeah I was of a similar mindset to Vince and was fairly confident that he was doing what he/his advisors thought necessary to get safely over the line and once in office things would change but completely understood why others were critical and distrustful.
Like us here in America, y'all have gone through a collective trauma and it's still ongoing because of just how deeply austerity and the flagrantly irresponsible uses of power by the Tories have affected every part of the country. It will take a while to really get things back on track but this burst of optimism and joy from many should be encouraged I think, rather than tempered (so long as it's within reason of course, gotta stay in facts and what is possible), because letting yourselves feel it is healing. It's also an important part of countering the far right populists and reactionaries. Two big reasons the left struggles to build/maintain a movement are that there's a constant ideological purity test and that any small win is chastised. It constantly drags morale down. So yep, let's revel in this relief a bit! Personally I'm glad I don't feel as worried about my UK friends and their children and the election in general is a big boost and inspiration for us here 🇬🇧💙🇺🇸
@vince Don't overegg it...he's competent at best...so much room for improvement..!
Act like the flower, but be the serpent under it 🤔
@@chatham43 maybe I’m “over egging” but I hope I’m correct , I think you have nailed it by the way “competent “ is what it’s about no silver bullets , no gimmicks , no hair brain promises that can’t be achieved.
It feels like the nation is a bit like an abused puppy sitting in the corner of its new owners house waiting to be kicked again. It’ll take a while of kindness before we stop shaking and trust the new owners.
Yes, I see what you mean. I think over time the nation will wonder what on earth we've lived through.
spot on
Beautiful analogy , just taken on a rescue dog last week going to take time 🫶
It's a wonderful thing to develop that trust when you build a relationship with a rescued dog, let us hope that our new administration wish to gain the trust of the population and experience how positive building a positive relationship can be.
Thing is in Scotland we have actually been buffered from a lot of what happened in little england cos the SNP did actually look after its citizens and had common sense. I am stunned the Scottish voters turned against them so much. Pple have short memories. Meanwhile labour promise little england what we in Scotland already have.
Please realise there are many of us around the world uplifted by your election results. May the collective sigh of relief and of hope give rise to ethical social reforms in all our countries

Perfect episode whilst working one of my 8 days a week!
James Timpson has a younger brother, Edward, who was my local TORY MP. Brothers... yet vastly different in their approach to life and society.
You need to be cheerful about the stark differences between Blair and Starmer.
@andal. You are right. Blair was never Labour in his heart. He joined the Labour Party after University - mainly as a career decision. His whole background was sort of Tory - not really political at all. At first sight, I knew wasn’t at home with the working-class. He seemed to revel in privilege. His odd decisions in office didn’t surprise me.
My grandparents have always voted Tory. They felt sympathy for Theresa May, they disliked Truss, they disliked Boris, and they disliked Sunak. Yet they voted Tory again this election because they "always have" - it's as if these kind of voters are stuck in some kind of purgatory.
Right-wing voters not noted for their intellect but rather cult-like thinking. Throughout the western world.
@filmrodent. One reason for the misery we’ve been through for so long is the continuous demonisation of Labour. The campaign is so old, it .has acquired the force and scope of a religion. It plays on our fears, our pride in reasonableness, our desire for respectability. Bettering ourselves as a priority.
It will take a while to really get things back on track but this burst of optimism and joy from many should be encouraged I think, rather than tempered (so long as it's within reason of course, gotta stay in facts and what is possible), because letting yourselves feel it is healing. It's also an important part of countering far right populists & reactionaries.

So yep, let's revel in this relief a bit! Thank you for the boost of hope & inspiration for things here across the pond. Still gonna be concerned because the challenges are many and the damage runs deep but THEY WILL ACTUALLY BE ADDRESSED AND ALLEVIATED which is incredible lol
🇺🇸💙🇬🇧
I can understand that you are looking for hope in Labour. The problem is that Labour has always been anti-EU since the 1970s! The Tories had problems getting into the EU back then because of this. The Labour reform paper also says that they will continue to do what they are used to, splitting the EU! They want to persuade EU countries to have more nationality in the EU countries and less EU!
That is the opposite of what the EU countries want, a united Europe, the EU vision!
Now ask yourself what the EU will say and do about it? The tough BREXIT on the part of the EU back then will lead to a new, more violent EU First edition. That is the opinion of top economists. That is the reality that destroys hopes. Things will get a little better in certain areas, but not like they were before.
for the 4 day work week .. many jobs have alot of wasted time (meetings, extended breaks, etc), and people focus and "get the work done". Basically, the workers are getting something out of this also .. not just the company. 4x11 hour days was setting up for failure. I remember in the USA some companies tried 4x9 days, and it was very successful for many companies, but it was difficult for management to accept the success. I am living in Tokyo, and here people work 11-12 hour days, and many will work 6 day weeks. But productivity is very low since there is no incentive to be productive. Instead they just put in the hours, and accept the long hours. I regularly attend 2 hour meetings, which typically do not resolve any issues. There is nothing that supports efficiency.
Scottish govmt r looking into this, at least they were over a year ago.
you can work 8 days a week and make nothing, you can work 4 days a week and do more than a 5 6 or 7 day week, you can force people to work, you cabt force quality control.
I think what the ex First Minister of the Welsh Senedd said after the Labour win was interesting. He said that we would see Starmer as a great Prim Minister than a leader of the Labour party. I think he might be right.
If people have just lost trust in politics the last thing to do would be to introduce an identification scheme.
It's a media talking point
What a wonderful cabinet Kier has put together. Great start guys, keep it up
Yup! Lammy as Foreign Secretary and Yvette "Refugees Welcome" Cooper as Home Secretary. Patrick Vallance has also joined the government. Enjoyed your time stuck in your bedroom during the lockdowns? Well, get used to it! Of course, you knew what you were voting for didn’t you?
Why not make a four day week the default?
I have to admit, as a lifelong Labour voter, I'd decided some time ago I just could not vote Labour with Starmer leading. My view was largely based on his resolute refusal to even consider our membership of the Single Market. My views were hardly challenged up to the election, although I came to realise it was necessary to limit the potential for attack from the Tory media. I must admit, I held my nose to some extent when I voted Labour this time, motivated more by absolute hatred of the various Tory governments of the last 14 years, each one worse than the previous. I was wrong, but I got it right in the end.
The only negative that Braverman is still around. They should have dumped her together with Tory trash
I think people tend to forget how bad priti petal was cos braverman decided she was gonna out do her.
🙄 if that's the way you think of a patriot regardless of their skin colour. I'm guessing you're a patriot yourself so why the attitude towards a fellow patriot , or are you just virtue signalling following the herd left wing supporter ?
1:53:15 imo , the best thing about a 4 day week is you. Truly have time for yourself at the end of the week, I worked at tesco 5-6 days a week which come Saturday night I couldn't stay up too late so I could wake up early enough Sunday so I can get to bed on time for Monday morning , may aswell be a working day at that point
But now factory work 3 nights one week 4 days the next has motivated me to work like never before
1:57:15 basically the 5 day+ work week feels like an ENDLESS shlog even if it isn't, a 4 day won't give that feeling so its doubtful ppl would associate a new day to Mondays feeling
Nadine Dories was the ultimate cheer leader.

There were many labour MP's/supporters who were kicking off at the appointment of Cameron, yet are saying nothing about Starmer doing the same?

@@rb1062 Indeed! The woman who claimed she wasn't deserving, nor would she accept an appointment to the Lords. It's almost like they lie, isn't it?
James I think the four day work week would work for a broadcaster. Sadly, it is the only downside of the four day week. There would have to be a four day Friday through Monday shift for an up and coming employee or intern. Monday they would consult with their boss and tie up any loose ends. Tuesday Wednesday Thursday would eventually take on new meaning and give a boost to most businesses midweek.
I can't help but wonder if the £310,000,000 would have been better spent on processing immigration claims. We used to be a bastion of decency in this country, what happened?
The tories got in power..
2:00 I recommend Time Shifting by Stephan Rechtschaffen M.D. Our experience of time is subjective no matter how many different ways there are of measuring it objectively. Rechtschaffen describes how the notion of "work ethic" was invented early in the Industrial Revolution simply because up until then, our mostly agrarian workforce were used to a sort of built in 'flexi time' - aka, the British weather. In other words they were obliged to intelligently determine the best and most productive use of their time, hour by hour, day by day, season by season.
He gives the example of such a worker turning up for work at a factory or mill or mine, only to be told that there was nothing for them to do because a machine was broken and wouldn't be repaired until the next day - so they went home to get on with something useful. They return the next morning to find they'd been fired, not having appreciated that the mill or factory owner also OWNS them for the period of their shift - even if it means twiddling your thumbs achieving nothing. So if you didn't have 'work ethic' (along with all the 'know your place' stuff) then the chances were poor that you'd keep a job and would therefore starve.
Psychologically this represents a truly enormous shift from everything that had gone previously: we thought about time one way for 250,000+ years and countless generations, mostly measuring our days in terms of what we've managed to get done, balanced with a sense of efficiency of effort. Then it's turned upside down in the space of a paltry 200 years and a half a dozen generations.
Small wonder then that when you give people back at least a measure of this autonomy they generally do better.

So, to sum up, you are not keen on Fuji autofocus then? 😂😂
Not sure what all the optimism is with all these ‘people who know what they are doing’ - according to what evidence.. what’s their actual plan with immigration besides, being ‘nicer’?
2:09:07 the funny thing is what you are talking about its a life style much more akin to the middle ages .. the irony is that the industrial revolutions sort of broke our brains
The question “how do people respond to change?”

Don't you get annual leave in your job?
The trouble is there skint. And you can't change much while your skint
None of it as yet has actually translated to any direct effect on the ground . When it does then I might feel optimistic
it's because of people like James that the civilians in Gaza are dead! why do Islamists hide behind civilians? so there will be pressure on their enemies both internally and externally not to attack them!
I think the current Tory line up have to keep saying the Rwanda plan would have worked. Secretly though, i think they are hoping the whole batshit crazy thing will die off and never be spoken of again.
If someone mad becomes leader of the Cons then it'll be brought up again and again but if Labour stop the crossings by putting in save routes and processing claims, when the Tories get in they'll be back to square one having to engineer a new immigration crisis.

I cannot support a party who allows Palestine flags and sometimes Pakistan flags but ban our own national flag . I hope Starmer can repair the damage caused by the corrupt Conservative Party . The jury is out .
Yvette Cooper sounds a lot cleverer than Cleverly .
No, not that clever. She once raged against austerity cuts claiming that they would cause mass unemployment and deprivation. The interview was played back to her 5 years later - and none of what she forecast had happened. A bit like her boss raging that removing the masks in 2021 would cause thousands of deaths.
My two year old granddaughter has a stuffed bear that's cleverer than Cleverly.
I'm concerned about Starmers Marxist and Trotskyist past . Time will tell , but I'm also concerned a certain demographic see the socialists as useful idiots , or is that just us Brits ,they've got history on that .
53:16 I thought an overwhelming 52% voted to do the polar opposite of what other countries do?
51.8% of the 70% that voted in 2016 you mean?
That's about 30% max. of the current Over 18 Electorate.
1:08 if the Conservatives go (and I don't think they will - they do still have 120 seats) there is always the Liberals.

James is only "left-wing" because how unfit your political range has become. In any healthy reality it'd be obvious that he's a right-leaning centrist. He likes Stramer because Stramer is polite and not actually Labour.
A non-solution again, what a not surprise. The coast of Britain with Europe is about 1000 km long (on a scale of 50 km in Google Maps). That's more than the length of the whole British/Scottish island. You want a border guard that have to control a border the size of the UK. And I just measured the south most British coast. Then, if they apprehend the refugees, what to do with them? The only thing they can do is to ship them to Britain. But then the UK Border Security Command will be nothing more than a ferry service.
Wow, it's almost as if we should have stayed in the EU (when there were no small boats) because our allies were legally obliged to hold them?
You could just wait and see if it works instead of deciding it won't. I know after 14 years of the Torys saying they will do X and then X never happens it's tempting to just dismiss anything a politician says they will try to achieve, but it's a new era. Maybe they will surprise you... maybe.
@@JohnnyMaverik What would work is for the UK to finally buckle up and hire x thousands of staff to process the asylum claims and open safe and legal routes. But instead Labour will waste millions of Pounds for what is effectively a border wall with Europe. A border guard is basically a wall on water, but with huge holes in it. And I know exactly why: because the UK don't have the money. Hiring x thousands of staff would cost a lot more than an ineffective UK Border Security Command, and it doesn't sound fancy. Lets see if Labour will repeal the Illegal Migration Act 2023, which is just immoral and illegal by international standards. Refugees have a right to come to the UK by any means possible, there are no illegal means.

The system is broken time for change don't think Starmer will change much. Hes a wolf in sheep's clothing. A globalised not for the working man hes for the corporate greed world.
As soon as you mentioned 'globalised', we all know which conspiracy theories you follow. We're stuck with international capitalism until socialism gets internationalised. Starmer will make it a bit smoother and that's all that was voted for.
Incompetents?
We can start with Yvette Cooper and Jacqui Smith.

Are you seriously comparing them to, just off the top of my head, Johnson, Hancock, Rees-Mogg, Truss, Sunak, Cummings, Cameron, Paterson, Parish, Pincher, Hester, Williams...need I go on?
People are excited/happy that labour won the election...so am i..... and im so glad that Angela Rainer is Deputy prime minister... she will end up being prime minister..😊
Not necessarily.
Starmer is the luckiest "general" (as Napoleon would have it) in British politics. Corbyn didn't lose to the Tories, he lost to Brexit. In that sense he was the unluckiest general. Maybe (as I opine) Corbyn should have nailed Labour's colours solidly and early to the Remain mast, that's a different subject, but Starmer's done very well for a guy who only joined the party ten years ago? The euphoria is understandable, the witch, if not dead, is in an induced coma, but I remain pessimistic.
Labour didn't win this election. There was no real Enthusiasm for Starmer. The Tories lost the election.
Conservative members.. save the party. Steak-Out the centre ground.. We need your party to be positioned in the centre ground. Pressure your party to get back to the centre or it won't exist in a few years. The counties in the uk , like all countries does best when the left and right are focused on the centre..
