Hi

Both Labour and Conservative are making wild promises.

This is normal before an Election but never delivered afterwards.

The system needs changing.

Re: Labour promise

Another uncosted election bribe targeting the social media crowd. Already, BT's share price has dropped 4% on this announcement. They are assuming a lot thinking they will be in power in 2030, if at all.

Re: Labour promise

If election manifesto promises were legally binding it would put an end to the nonsense. Have either Conservatives or Labour published their manifestos yet?


Meaningless drivel.

Re: Labour promise

It's probably n the pipeline anyway, if we stay in Europe.. I don't understand all this tech stuff, but this link might be of interest.

I just think Labour are searching the EU agenda and playing the cards accordingly.

Swinson is promoting £100 billion on combating climate change... she's off her trolley.

Re: Labour promise

Listened to Corbyn's speech on this for a bit this morning on BBC2. He thinks this is as important a potential legacy as the NHS. Must admit, I'm not quite so certain that it's so grave an issue.
