Endless strikes are costing us ALL money – now is surely the time for sensible talks

So disgusting

STRIKED government workers are now costing us ALL the money.

Experts say a flat economy in February was caused by NHS workers and teachers’ strikes.

The struggle for better pay during a cost-of-living crisis may be understandable.

But a 35 per cent boost for young doctors earning up to £63,000 and enjoying luxury pensions is ridiculous.

Just like the BMA’s blunt refusal to present the government with a credible alternative.

The government must stand firm in the face of hard left unions who don’t care about the damage they wreak.

That the BMA can consider exiting while 125,000 people are waiting in emergency rooms for more than 12 hours shows how detached they are from reality.

The time for a descent and sensible talks is now. Surely.

Bad translation

When Rishi Sunak correctly states that 100 percent of women do not have penises, we see an example of how gender warriors have insidiously infiltrated the government machinery.

Instead of asking a simple census question, “Are you transgender?”, LGBTQ activists insisted on something much more complicated.

Which, in turn, is believed to have led to thousands of people whose first language is not English accidentally identifying as transgender.

Whitehall needs to get back to basics quickly – starting with how it compiles the census.

Bye Biden

Farewell to Joe Biden, who is flying back to the White House after an inconspicuous visit to the island of Ireland.

There was a stop north – where he got a quick tea with Rishi Sunak before sharing a few heartfelt words about the Windsor Framework.

And a series of photo ops in the south to show off his Irish roots for the benefit of those back home.

Less the hand of history, more the hand of his re-election campaign team.

Rather than drive to break the political impasse in Northern Ireland, Biden appeared to be enjoying a big, fun holiday.

No tax mess

CAN you trust Labor on taxes?

His pledge to freeze council taxes was unraveled within hours when shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves admitted she didn’t know if she could afford it.

She also ruled out capital gains increases, but Angela Rayner has now hinted they could happen.

Meanwhile, Labor is repeatedly calling for massive spending increases and the highest tax burden in decades.

So what should it be, Sir Keir?

Because it can’t be both.
