Tony Blair, New Labour, New Prime Minister, New Ambitious Policy Goalshe government is on the defensive against a compelling campaign by Marcus Rashford, the footballer, to help feed children entitled to free school meals in the holidays. Keir Starmer, the Labour leader, tabled a motion in parliament last week demanding that the government continue the holiday voucher scheme, which was defeated by Conservative MPs, many of them unhappy at being instructed to vote against it.
What are you on about? -the Tories have been in power the past 10yrs?!?
10 years of Tory Govt.
10 years of Tory Rule is like a plague of locust upon on Britain. Children always suffer when selfish adults let Tories back in the door. But Tories are like vampires. They can't come in unless they are invited. So stop voting for them.
The Tories happened.
Put them back in power and let's find out!
Ten years of Tory rule is what happened!
He chose to profit from killing a million+ people over fossil fuels instead He promised us AV+ electoral reforms (as proposed by the Jenkins commission 2 years earlier) & reneged on that too Whatever happened to the Hague's powers to prosecute war criminals - eh georgegalloway?
A decade of Tory rule maybe? Jesus Christ JohnRentoul
The Tories. Next question.
The Tories happened.
When did Labour get back into government?
The Tories
? They tried and were voted down by soulless evil clowns
Blair became very wealthy with stacks of very wealthy friends which was his original aim anyway.
Did you skip the last 10 years.
Conservatives happened. That's what.
Is this headline a f****in joke?!
Blair screwed up backing America's insane, pointless war in Iraq. He broke the country and the Tories with the help of the turncoat LibDems finished the job. What was an optimistic, enterprising country has been turned into the divided nightmare we live in now.
The Torys got in
Well, they keep losing elections because since Tony Blair their leaders have been unlikeable, uncharismatic, and proposed policies that the British public don’t like.. 🤷♂️ Conservatives have been more charismatic, miles more patriotic, and spoken to more than the metropolitan.
Whatever fee was paid for writing this should be returned
The Tories..
They're not in power?!
The Tories happened to it.
Ummm let’s see about that. Couldn’t possibly be that the Tories have been in power for the past decade could it?
There's a paywall to the newspaper article. But anyone interested, there's a 2013 publication about this by TheIFS
They’ve not been in power for over 10 years ! ..
Possibly the last 10 years under a Tory government happened?
It’s almost like Labour haven’t been in charge for the last decade because people keep voting for ToryScum
People voted for the Tories
Because it was more meaningless manifesto bollocks. Kicking a can down the road in the knowledge that the electorate would be fed up with them by then, and they'd be out of power. Mind you, they HAD thirteen years in power to make inroads on this, and didn't.
Ten years of Tory rule 🤭 IdioticHeadlines
The Tories got in.
Err, The Tories!
The Conservatives happened.
The Tories happened
Whatever happened to labour?
The torys
SUPREMACISTS : Banks-McDo-Nike-Adidas-Disney-Netfix-Facebook-Amazon-Apple-Huawei-Samsung-Microsoft-Google European Commission estimates the TAX EVASION in EU at € 3ooo billion/YEAR =LESS educational-health-democratic-ecological projects +CORRUPTION +SOCIAL & FAMILY VIOLENCE
You know that the Tories Conservatives ToryScum have been in power for a decade, right? Have you been forced to do this as a diversion from something?
The Torys wrecked the plan, by getting elected. They just F+ck stuff up.
Ahem, Labour left office over 10 years ago.
The Conservatives!
It was a lie.labour needs poor people otherwise everyone would be conservatives.think about it labour plays the have not by promising more but never do it to keep the votes.
The Tories have been in power for the last 10 years. Ask them.
The Selfservatives winning the 2010 election.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Are you serious
Tory’s have been in govt for 10 years? ....
Yes, what did happen? Neither Blair nor Brown - when they had the opportunity - did anything meaningful to reverse child poverty...
Just a wild hunch, but does it have anything to do with not being in Government for a decade?
Tories happened, that's what!!!
Erm.. The Tories happened.
The Tories won an election.
They sided with the Conservative, the profit loss would have meant some of their children wouldn’t attend Public School.
Ten years of Tory rule, maybe? 🙄
What a ridiculous question., it doesn’t deserve an an answer but here it is- TORIES!!
The problem is that you people separate the child from the family . It's part of the anti family agenda to feed these lost kid's GMO poison . It's just another plank of the commie manifesto fulfilled .
Year on year under Labour it got worse
They haven't been in power for 10 years
News just in. People are only now realising that politicians talk sh1t.
Austerity.
Shite journalism!
The Tories.
Fuck me, since when did Dominic Cummings start writing for you guys
tony blair and new labour (now including Keir_Starmer bash at it) are fraudsters and career opportunist who have taken a left-wing party and morphed it into the fence sitting lindems. new labour does nothing to support workers and trade unions
Nothing did like all their other lies and false promises
The answer is ToryScum
Tories/Lib Dems stalemate coalition followed by Tory austerity...
The Tories rode ten years of misery and suffering over it?
died when they got kicked out of office and this lot got put in👈🖕🔎😡
Gordon Brown called a nice old lady racist and.elected David Cameron. End of story.
Tony the war criminal lied. He’s as scummy as the Tories.
Hoodwinked... This is what happens to those that unconsciously or consciously subscribe to the idea that God is all loving and all compassionate. When the reality of life hits and well meaning ppl realise that there are other pressing priorities, and ooops — did we promise that?!
Did anyone ever find out the name of the child?
I’m not paying to read the rest of the article but I’m guessing it’s because they haven’t been in government since 2010?
It's hidden behind a paywall, so I can't see the full article. But I'm gonna hazard a guess that it *may* have something to do with the series of Tory Prime Ministers since 2010. Including the one currently hell-bent on letting children go hungry at Christmas. Am I close?
It feels like the answer is Labour lost the 2010 election....but I'm also a fan of Only Connect, can't be this easy can it?
The recession, the Tories, brexit and now covid? That would be my guess.
How much do you pay John Rentoul for these incredibly fucking stupid takes? Because, you could slip me £20 and I'll give you the actual answer.
Someone should tell this “news organization” the Labour Party hasn’t been in the majority for, how long? Oh yes, an entire fucking decade.
What a stupid headline!
Fuck me, just when you couldn’t think the press could get any worse. I’ll break this to you slowly, Labour haven’t been in power for nearly 11 years.
A decade of Tory government?
Tories got in the way!
It was a lie
Well, it's simple: Too many idiots voted the Tories back in.
Yeah, which muppets abolished Sure Start, fucked up the benefits system and brought about swingeing austerity cuts again? 🤔
I'll give you a clue: ToryScum
Is this a joke?
It's dreams...possibly because of political reasons and games.
Austerity.
The people that believed that promise are the same people that believe that the moon is made out of cheese.
Erm, Tory scum FreeSchoolMeals ToryHypocrites BorisHasFailedTheNation
When is this criminal going to be handed over to Iraq to be put on trial for mass murder.
Lying lefty’s
Tories happened
Cause the tories have been in power for year's 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
When you measure poverty relative to median income, it is mathematically impossible to eradicate it
NEWSFLASH: The UK Government has been a Conservative & Unionist one for over a decade. Might want to have a word with them.
It helps to be in power.
