Try stopping housing illegal men. That save a fortune

Starmer is just reading a script given to him by his bosses at the WEF.

Getting rid of Starmer is needed for the long term good.

Making a statement like this and considering an amnesty for 40000 plus illegal immigrants and asking the work force to take on more tax responsibility is going to be the death of this party hopefully.

[yorkshireako]

Standby for higher taxes blame laid on last government as an excuse. Two teir wants More government control and the drive to own nothing and be happy. MPs should not claim energy bills for their second homes to save money and show they truly relate to the people they have taken it from.

[beastofackworth]

The public also has some big asks: stop allowing illegal migrants to stay here at our costs. Stop sending billions to Ukraine and spend our foreign aid budget on our own people.

[GraceBey-hd]

As soon as he called British people nazis, he has lost .should be done for treason against his own country.

[waynesworld]

Always painful for the British people. And the government is never going to pay for it's terrible behaviour and once again it's the general public that has to pay for their poor judgment and choices. . This country has gone to shit

[martinmanifold]

Sending billions out of the UK ...whilst billions of a black hole in the home finances ....isnt the way to run a household

[therealryan]

How about policing the border and getting unwanted people out of expensive hotels. Maybe that would save a few quid?

[barryrice]

Any politician that starts with "I will be honest" means, I'm about to lie to you.
Any politician that starts with "let me be clear" is about to waffle and answer NOTHING.

[SaltyGammon]

Only 20% of the electorate voted Labour. Only 5% of Labour voters did so because they liked their policies. That means that only 1% of the electorate voted for Labour policies.

[andyb]

"I will be honest with you" The opening line says it all. 🙄

[joclarke]

I’m sick of them wasting our money! All of them! Taxpayer

[elainedarwin]

I save the government some money very easily, stop wasting taxpayers by not paying for illegal immigrant landing on our shores as well as kitting out their new homes, remove all the perks the mps get, end all overseas aid until the things improve

[big-g]

Did anyone hear him say immigration? Nah I didn’t think so! This man is unbelievable. There is nothing more pressing or important than the current immigration situation we are in in this country right now. At least fucking acknowledge it. 🤬

[babshodgkinson]

If he gets rid of the illegal immigrants we won't need the cuts. Send them back and save millions. Give pensioners their winter allowances. Show that the working class mean s9mething to you rather than punishing the ones who have worked for this country. I haven't voted Labour for many many years. All because I saw what they are about and it isn't the working class.!!

[Runbug]

Try getting rid of illegal immigrants not punish people who have worked all there lives for a small pension then cut bits out winter fuel

[catherinedunn]

Why does he act like a school teacher
He is working for the public
We deserve respect we are your employers we expect a good service so less of the power
Your there to serve

[stevenparrott]

I bet not one MP will suffer because of the Autumn budget not one.
