[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 349366, member: 33"] Neither Tony Blair or Gordon Brown had a resignation honours list unlike Cameron, May and The Clown. It's been reported that Truss will also have resignation honours even though I'd had headaches longer than she was Prime Minister. Whatever corruption that you think was associated with the last Labour government it pales into insignificance compared with what the Tories have done. Setting up an energy company is well doable within one parliamentary term, my reservation is that it's not ambitious enough. I think it should be aiming to completely replace the existing energy suppliers rather than setting up an alternative green option. People are striking because the government is only offering them a pay increase well below the rate of inflation which is an effective pay cut. This comes after 12 years of Tory austerity during which public sector workers saw their pay fall in value year on year. You said "People's primary focus should be ensure that they provide for themselves and their children" if that's true, why should they accept a cut in pay to bail out the failure of the Tory government's policies? The government are causing these strikes not the unions. You ask "why should people expect taxpayers to feed and dress their offspring?" Because we are a society and sometimes we need support and other times we support others. I want my taxes to "feed and dress their offspring" because those children will eventually enter the workforce and pay taxes which will pay for my pension and any healthcare I might need when I'm older.
