Those who remember the Petition to have a General Election in the UK with about 5% of the country signing it probably knew it was going to land flat. And it did. But we have more data as a response was shared.
This Government is fixing the foundations and delivering change with investment and reform to deliver growth, with more jobs, more money in people’s pockets, to rebuild Britain and get the NHS back on its feet. This will be built on the strong foundations of a stable economy, national security and secure borders as we put politics back in the service of working people.
On entering office, a £22 billion black hole was identified in the nation’s finances. We inherited unprecedented challenges, with crumbling public services and crippled public finances, but will deliver a decade of national renewal through our five missions: economic growth, fixing the NHS, safer streets, making Britain a clean energy super-power and opportunity for all. This is what was promised and is what we are delivering.
The Government’s first Budget freed up tens of billions of pounds to invest in Britain’s future while locking in stability, preventing devastating austerity in our public services and protecting working people’s payslips.
Mission-led government rejects the sticking-plaster solutions of the past and unites public and private sectors, national, devolved and local government, business and unions, and the whole of civil society in a shared purpose. The Government will continue to deliver the manifesto of change that it was elected on.
UK economy: current result FAIL
Since September, the pound has been tanking.. It's still trending down. Taxes are up, pensioners are getting screwed over, and the NHS has been getting worse and worse.
Also, according to Ons Unemployment is up too, and the job market is from the look of it, the job market is shrinking. Growth at best is stagnant since July, and has been on a downturn since 2022 at least here in the UK. Si six months in and they are weak on promise 1
fixing the NHS: current result: FAIL
NHS still has massive staff shortages. It still has too little money. Personal experience of the GP system here for me and my wife is so hit and miss it beggars belief.
Anecdotally, I have a bad case of psoriasis that is starting to give me arthritis at fucking 40, and I had an appointment to see a specialist. It was pushed from 3 months wait, to 18 months wait, then the next week it was unilaterally cancelled. I went private, cost hundreds of pounds as a result to me out of pocket, but got treated at least. Still an issue but one I can at least try to manage myself now. Wife has had lots of health related scares and the only way I can get scans done for her in a timely fashion is to pay for them myself. Her favourite doctor is now Dr. Chat GuPTa
But don't take my word for it:
- people dying from long ambulance wait times and poor services
- current plans hindered by staff shortages
- failures in cancer diagnosis causes massive payouts last year
So year, NHS is still a shit show
safer streets? Current result: fail
Southport massacre. Grooming gang scandals not being addressed or taken with the severity they should be still. UK police appear to be overwhelmed and staffed with weak cops.
If I need to source this, you just have to look at Elon's posts on the failure of the UK to protect its girls from harm.
clean energy? Expected to fail, it's a six year plan
There is no wiggle room for errors in the plan. It looks like it's another target based policy which was only designed to give government more control, which in my view is never good.

Opportunity for all: current result fail
British men have been complaining the job market doesn't exist for them out of university at all because they are white males. White men are part of all, and dei is impacting them. Hard. As I already mentioned the job market has shrunk. The pound is down and investment is drying up. I would not be surprised if we aren't in a recession already, or about to enter one.
So yeah, for all their blather, the government and the cabinet Office can kiss my arse with its lies until the cows come home. I won't believe the system is working as they say it will. I'll believe it is working based on how it delivers results, and right now it isn't.
Side note as to your psoriasis... have had great success using Horse Paste 1.87 Ivermectin topical and it has disappeared. Not medical advice.
