I have heard on the radio that people regret voting for Brexit but I have never met anyone who said that,I have however met people who regret voting for labour at the general election,this after only 3 months in power (it seems like much longer). A woman that I was talking to this week told me that when she voted she wanted the tories out but she didnt know whether to vote labour or Reform,she chose labour but now regrets not voting Reform because "this lot taking all these freebies and then stopping my old dads winter fuel allowance" bet theres loads like that,just wait until the budget.

I was chatting to a woman the other day who was had delivered a devastating critique of Brexit and the negative, irrefutable, evidence of the terrible impact on our economy. She also bemoaned the state of our education system, she pointed out that leave voters could not have achieved maths, grade 1. I said "forgive them, they know nothing of which they speak" She said "f**l them" they have impoverished my children.

Exactly , that’s why more free gear keir is handing back 6,000( or has done ) , he knows his rating have crashed , the population would rather have sunak & the tories than them , it’s desperation , but imho it’s to late , he should of handed it back before the election , when your giving it thr houlier than though crap he was before the election then you need to make sure your whiter than white when you do get in . I expected a s**t show , but I had that horrible feeling more free gear keir would actually do a decent job , he was a top lawyer , but he’s doing a good impression of a rich tory , just doesn’t relate to working class people , people are struggling & he’s taking 1,000,s in Taylor swift tickets , football tickets , I can’t understand why he did it , if I’m understanding right he’s got 8 million in the bank Maybe he thought voters would accept anything as long as it wasn’t the tories , he’s just given them the tories mk2 , and they’d not what they voted for He’s completely mis- read the room , which for someone who’s meant to be intelligent, is unbelievable . I’m just glad I voted reform , who’d want to be scrabbling round like these commies on here trying to justify it all 😂😂😂

The row over Labour’s “freebies” will carry on Handouts stick with voters inured to thinking of politicians as greedy.
Think greedy is a good word to describe this party

I've heard people on the radio say that they regret voting for Labour a few months ago, and only did so as they wanted rid of the Torries. I've never heard anyone say that they regretted voting for Brexit, only that the Brexit they got was not the one they voted for... due to Doris.😡 That's my feelings also.

There were multiple opinions on what Brexit meant. Granted, but what I asked for and then what we got were two different things.It was due to the corrupt , lying..heel dragging government party, and their opposition at the time that f**ked Brexit up. Their fault. Nothing about the Brexit idea, nor it's voters as that's a cop out. These people never wanted it, and never delivered it. Fact. I've spoke to many people that feel the same.

Well that's a whole new thread, personally I feel the one you wanted was impossible to deliver, although plenty in government wanted it too.

Sir Keir Starmer repays more than £6,000 in gifts after donations row..by Joshua Nevett, Political reporter
i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/10/02/22/90387465-13918075-image-a-21_1727903952142.jpg The Prime Minister shakes hands with European Commission president Ursula von der LeyenPrime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has paid back more than £6,000 worth of gifts and hospitality received since becoming prime minister, following a backlash over donations. The prime minister is covering the cost of six Taylor Swift tickets, four tickets to the races and a clothing rental agreement with a high-end designer favoured by his wife, Lady Victoria Starmer. It comes after Sir Keir and other cabinet ministers have faced weeks of criticism for accepting freebies from wealthy donors. Sir Keir has committed to tightening the rules around ministerial hospitality to improve transparency. Speaking in Brussels on Wednesday, the prime minister said his government would bring forward new principles for donations "as until now politicians have used their best individual judgement to decide". "I took the decision that until those principles were in place it was right to repay these particular payments,” he said. Earlier, a Downing Street spokesperson confirmed that the ministerial code will be updated and will include “a new set of principles on gifts and hospitality” commissioned by Sir Keir. "Ahead of the publication of the new code, the prime minister has paid for several entries on his own register. "This will appear in the next register of members' interests." A Conservative Party spokesperson said Sir Keir "will only be transparent when his back's against the wall". The party said Wednesday's announcement did not explain why the prime minister accepted the donations in the first place and questioned why other senior party members had not paid back their gifts and hospitality. The gifts Starmer has paid for include four Taylor Swift tickets from Universal Music Group worth £2,800, two from the Football Association at a cost of £598, and four to Doncaster Races from Arena Racing Corporation at £1,939. An £839 clothing rental agreement with Edeline Lee, the designer recently worn by his wife to London Fashion Week, along with one hour of hair care and makeup, was also covered by the prime minister. Sir Keir has also accepted a further £6,134 in "clothing and personal support" for Lady Starmer in June, from Labour donor Lord Alli. The details of the donations have been published, external in the latest register of interests for MPs on Wednesday. It comes as Parliament's standards watchdog said Lord Alli was being investigated over allegedly failing to register interests. A complaint was made during the last week about the Labour donor, who has been at the centre of a row over his donations to Sir Keir and other MPs. Sir Keir has said he will not accept donations of clothing as prime minister. When asked about the Lord Alli probe, he said: "I'm not going to comment on Lord Alli. The investigation will run its course." Last month, Sir Keir told the BBC he had accepted the donation for clothing in opposition, during a "busy election campaign". The latest register of interest also shows Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner declared £836 in hospitality as a "visit to (a) DJ booth". The registration relates to a trip to a nightclub where Rayner was filmed dancing and being cheered on by the crowd over the summer. The name of the donor listed on the latest register of interests is Ayita LLC.

They were warned what the rules were for third party countries [many of which the UK asked to be put in place] but said it was 'Project Fear' and refused to believe it. In fact not all of the regulations, which will make things even worse, are in place yet. There is more to come. You were sold a pup before not after! Even Nige admitted that the £350mln for the NHS was a soundbite!

Laura Kuenssberg was infatuated with Johnson, you could tell with every interview and the easy ride he always got. I would not put it past her to have deliberately sent them. You can also tell from early days that she hates interviewing Starmer!

You can also tell from early days that she hates interviewing Starmer! She's embarrassingly and obviously sycophantic. I tend to side with the BBC in general, but her interviews with prominent Conservatives bordered on PR not investigative journalism. Robin Day she is not.

Was this woman that you mention a Brexit voter ? sounds like she was and still is a remainiac. By odd coincidence the woman that I spoke to mentioned education,she said that she left school with no CSE's or O levels (i am guessing that she left late 80s early 90s) but that later she had gone to night school and got some qualifications and then went to Uni and got a degree in business studies,she now works for herself, she was scathing about the education that she received at a comprehensive school.
