    [Politics] The Labour Government

    It's almost as if 'the mother, who asked not to be named' and provides such an important story in The Telegraph is of the view that she deserves special treatment.

    Bolleaux. It was a manifesto commitment, and it'll ensure pensioners have real-terms increases in income during the lifetime of the parliament.

    We're so grateful to have you. It's late on Friday night. You have some time off now. Relax, put your feet up. Watch some telly. Have a drink. Maybe some shut-eye?

    It really didn't. It provide secure, cheap, quality accommodation for tens of millions. Even in Burnley, it did.

    He's giving up on the Newcie Brown then, is he?

    They could have council housing and social housing liked they used to, before property became a great big game for spivs and foreign investors to play but, instead, you're on here bleating about how tough landlords have it.

    Isn't it more Morgan McSweeney that's doing it, rather than Cabinet ministers? I note you were a little coy about attributing the leaks/legs.

    How you getting on with this @Nicks?

    I was prompting you to offer your opinion on a particular topic, but you've just diverted onto something else. I'll try again: you don't seem to like Labour's plan for renewable electricity generation: do you think that we shouldn't have electricity? if you think we should have electricity...

    I see that @Nicks is busy posting links to twitter posts and giving one-liner posts attacking one particular political party, but cannot fathom the energy to respond to a quite simple question. There seems to be a bit of a pattern here

    So, like Farage, you seem to think that nuclear is the answer. Two questions. First, share with us the cost of nuclear, onshore wind, solar and offshore wind. Second, when are you expecting Hinckley to be generating energy? Let's see if you can actually answer these questions given you failed...

    OK, it's that you don't understand. First, you're quibbling between 'We will start to see the effect of it' and what I said which was 'it'll start to come down in the course of the parliament'. Second, in your initial post that I responded to, you said that 'it would take at least six years to...

    There's a step-change here. The ambition is to crank up public investment through the parliament dependent on growth. There's also a coordinated plan. This will lead to reduced emissions, more home-grown energy produced, and this will be -- the clue is in the name -- renewable, rather than...

    You either have problems understanding or are being disingenuous. He actually says that they'll begin to come down as the home-grown energy is produced during the course of the parliament -- which lasts a maximum of five (and not six) years.

    She (and it's interesting that only one individual is being singled out) was actually re-applying for a job and it's not a normal job. Irrespective of what we think of those voting against (or, as in the case of Rosie Duffield, who couldn't vote against but wanted to) or Starmer's response --...

    Do you make these accusations to everybody that has a job? Do you have a job?

    Well, it was quite clearly signalled so it's hardly beyond belief. If there is such a thing, the moral vacuum is actually via the voting system and the swing voters that are indulged by it and are consequently provided far too much prominence. I agree with you about the long-term consequences...

    Maybe, but Labour are in a better position to reform the NHS than the Tories, because they're trusted with it. Hunt said as much as his parting shot. What that reform amounts to, we'll find out with the Darzi report and how much of it is implemented. I sincerely doubt this will entail...
