UKs Worst Politicians - Priti Patel

Patel is the former secretary of state for international development, despite having expressed the opinion that it should be abolished. She no longer has that post because of undeclared meetings with Israeli politicians while she was supposed to be on holiday.

Meetings with foreign politicians are supposed to be reported to the foreign office if you are a member of the government for obvious reasons. But Patel did not declare these meetings, which was rather concerning as among other meetings she met with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. 

After Patel then misled the government and media about the number of meetings and their content, she was forced to resign her position.

Most recently Patel has caused controversy by implying that the UK should use the potential of economic harm to Ireland to give the UK leverage in negotiations to leave the EU. Unfortunately for her, this showed historical ignorance as this had connotations that reminded many of the potato famine when Britain allowed Ireland to starve instead of providing aid to its closest territory.

The prominent, pro-tobacco Politician also wants to make Britain like Singapore so most kids will finish School at 13, you won't get a vote until your 21 and living costs will rise even more than now with no social safety net.

Fortunately, this imperious politician has had her leadership ambitions severely reduced.

Labour's Workers' Rights Overhaul: A Mirage of Progress in Capitalist Britain

Labour's Workers' Rights Overhaul: A Mirage of Progress in Capitalist Britain In a move touted as the "biggest upgrade in employment rights for a generation," Britain's newly-minted Labour government has unveiled an ambitious package of workers' rights reforms. While the bourgeois press hails this as a triumph for the working class, a deeper analysis reveals the inherent contradictions and limitations of such reforms within the capitalist system. The Illusion of Change: Examining Labour's Employment Rights Bill The Employment Rights Bill, introduced roughly 100 days into Labour's tenure, presents a veneer of progress that ultimately serves to maintain the status quo of worker exploitation. Let us dissect the key elements of this legislation and expose its true nature. Sick Pay and Parental Leave: Crumbs from the Capitalist Table Among the headline measures are changes to sick pay and parental leave entitlements. Workers will now be able to claim s...

UK's Partial Arms Embargo on Israel: A Facade of Humanitarian Concern Amidst Imperialist Contradictions

 In a move that reveals the inherent contradictions within capitalist-imperialist alliances, the United Kingdom has announced a partial suspension of arms exports to Israel. This decision, ostensibly driven by concerns over potential violations of international humanitarian law, lays bare the complex interplay of economic interests, geopolitical maneuvering, and public opinion that shape the foreign policies of imperialist nations. The Illusion of Moral High Ground Foreign Secretary David Lammy, in addressing Parliament, attempted to cloak this decision in the language of humanitarian concern. He stated that the UK government had concluded there is a "clear risk" that certain items could be used to "commit or facilitate a serious violation of international humanitarian law." This rhetoric, while seemingly noble, serves to obscure the deeper economic and political motivations behind the UK's actions. The suspension affects approximately 30 out of 350 existing exp...

Labour Isn't Working: A Reckoning with a Party That Left the Working Class Behind

By all means, they can wear red ties and sing “The Red Flag” at conference once a year, but don't let that fool you — the Labour Party, as it stands, is no longer the voice of working people. It's time we stopped pretending otherwise. The truth, plain and simple, is this: Labour has betrayed, sidelined, and in many cases outright attacked the very people it was formed to represent — the working class. Let’s talk about history — not the myth, but the facts. The First Great Betrayal: Ramsay MacDonald and the National Government (1931) In 1931, amid the Great Depression, Labour Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald joined forces with the Conservatives and Liberals to form a National Government. In doing so, he oversaw cuts to unemployment benefits while millions were jobless and hungry. His actions split the Labour Party and entrenched the suffering of working people. Post-War Promises and State Suppression The Attlee government is often praised for founding the NHS and nationalisi...
