Labour are committed to getting some money back. But I want to see measures put in place to stop corruption in our future Governments. Tax Payers should be protected from incompetence and wilful theft from people in power.

Zero tolerance for doomerism. Stop lazily accepting that everything is screwed forever. Stop normalising low expectations. That’s part of the problem & it’s what the bastards want. It’s also a product of privilege. People in more desperate situations don’t have the option to just sit back & shrug.
