Labour will be tougher than Tories on benefits, vows Rachel Reeves

New shadow work and pensions minister says party will cut welfare bill and force long-term unemployed to take up work offers or lose support

What’s the point of Labour?

New shadow housing secretary Lucy Powell is... a landlord

Yes, although seems to be a room in a flat.

Tracy Brabin elected West Yorkshire mayor, meaning there'll be a by election in Batley and Spen.

Don't see Burnham going for it, as it would make him look an opportunist twat after committing to the Manchester mayor job a couple of days ago. And if he did go for it kieth would make sure someone else was parachuted in. Anyway, if Labour lose Batley and Spen there's going to be real pressure on starmer.

Rather more. A block of flats and rents a room in her flat.

Rachel Reeves says Labour does not want to represent people out of work

'Labour are a party of working people, formed for and by working people'

That’s some ugly shit.

Not that I want to defend these people, but before everyone shoots themselves in the foot calling it out, I think the "block of flats" is a management company that tenants flat owners have formed to look after the shared fabric of a building they live in. Not exactly hot stuff.

Looking at company house you are about half right, several of the directors registered there but several are not.

yes, that. sounds like it's more likely to be the sort of block that's 'shared freehold' where the leaseholder of each flat has a share in the freehold of the block, rather than the freehold being owned by someone else

they could be leaseholders who for whatever reason (probably buy to let) rent the whole flat out and don't live there

I did that already - FML - and they all lived there bar two, one of which is Powell (MP for Manchester, registered there) and one other.

Yeh. You know their addresses don't have to be home addresses I suppose. Have you gone on to check the electoral register for them? Your personal information on the Companies House register

As a permanent renter it's all fucking obscure to me anyway so fuck it.

leasehold can be a massive crock of shite.

i have a vague feeling that the blair government did consider doing something to improve it, but since a lot of freeholders tend to be bloody rich and make money out of screwing the individual leaseholders, it got booted in to the long grass...

Leasehold on flats makes a small amount of sense, shared building after all*, otherwise it's just renting by another name.

*It's wildly fucked up though as seen by the cladding bill fuckery.

My vote would go to

Bell Ribeiro-Addy - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Starmer got rid of her role as Shadow Minister for Immigration, probably because she's not right wing enough.

Bell is unashamedly left-wing, & a damned good constituency MP to boot. She's done more for Streatham in 2 yrs, than Tosspot Umunna did in 9.

Philips looks like she's 40 hours in, on a 48hr sulphate binge.

 

[ViolentPanda]

She's a useful idiot . Plays safe and thinks too much of herself to be the stalking horse candidate., but can be primed to stick the boot in or land a blow from a far.

She also has a rich fantasy life where she tells Diane Abbott to fuck off, & offers to stab Jeremy Corbyn "in the front", among other Chinny Reckon tales.

 

[ViolentPanda]

That's the constable off deep space 9 isn't it?

Good old Odo.

 

[ViolentPanda]

At least Odo was a decent shape-shifter.

Only after a fair bit of practice, though.

He was also a more convincing sentient being than Kieth is.

Must tell my 90 year old mam in Salford that she's now woke metropolitan elite

She'll probably piss in yer tea next time you visit her, if you do that.
