    Kier ain’t axing shit. The man is too busy pivoting on all pledges so he can morph into Boris and you think he will make this the seperating line?

      Unlike the tories, Labour have a costed manifesto, so they have to remove things if the economy gets worse and they’ll have less money to work with if they win. It keeps getting worse, so they keep removing things from the manifesto. There’s not really another option other than running on a manifesto they know contains things that can’t fit in the budget.

        Wait, really? Ok, I admit that’s actually a good reason for removing manifesto promises. I was under the impression they cut the £28B etc etc just because they felt like it/lobbying/appeasing demographics
