genuinely wondering what the point of labour is

Labour’s heartland. Salt of the earth, regular blokes, rolling up their shirtsleeves and getting on with the hard graft, an honest days toil for an honest year’s pay, that’s bankers.

Why can’t more of the feckless unemployed get jobs in venture capital, equity markets or M&A consultancy? It’s not rocket surgery!

DrCake,

I understand Labour will get some stick for this, but I’m not really sure what benefits we get from the cap. I’m not saying we get any benefit from not having a cap, but I’m sure banks will find a way around the cap. And I’m not sure the money not given as bonus was finding its way to the workers anyway

Pretty sad for progress.

The only way anyone gets power is :

  1. Be like the tories
  2. Wait 10 years for tories to implode.

No other way to get elected in the UK, with FTPT voting, campaign funding and mainstream media outlets.

It’s a very robust system to stop any undesirables winning any sort of power, and the envy of dictators the world over.

Demand PR from your Labour MP. Watch them laugh at you, then vote for a party that explicitly campaigns for PR. Rinse and repeat enough times such that Labour take notice. Tories aren’t and Labour isn’t as long as they sniff power.

Not enough people do this, but they should.

frazorth,

I’m not sure I have anyone would would be running here who supports PR.

Unfortunately.
