Most of the smaller banks in the UK are gone. We don’t have a lot of “town banks”.
The risks to the US may be very different from here. Either that or you could be guilty of catastrophising.

Hyperinflation doesn’t happen that quick.
Not all banks go pop at once. Usually when banks go bust in UK, the gov steps in, recovers them and sells after. Many banks are perceived as too big to fail.
False, and I’ll assume you are American.
In the UK, you are protected up to £85k per bank.

Government regulation can protect people. I know that concept seems crazy in USA.
They claimed it because she was married to a CIA employee.
Kind of free reign to break the law and kill people if you’re a relative of a CIA employee. She could have been trialed without any risk to national security, so it’s absolutely a BS excuse.
Not so much in the case of the killer of Harry Dunn.
Labour does have a process for policies. It is called the National Policy Forum. He ignores it. So your suggestion that you can push internally is false. Keir doesn’t tolerate dissent because he’s an autocrat.
Labour used to get most funding from unions, it’s now less than 30%, so wealthy business folk got control of that.
It’s a shame that Keir’s labour doesn’t have policies that aren’t cruel on people.
Yup, and for the avoidance of doubt:

Labour used to be funded by trade unions. Now it’s just a 5th of total funding. Corporate takeover of the Labour party. Of course, businesses will be wanting a return on investment here.
So Tories screwed our economic situations and Keir’s Labour will keep us here.
What is the point in a massive majority if you’ll do what the predecessors did? Power for power’s sake?
Streeting is a Tory with a red rosette. From the right-wing Blairite faction (Progress) and one of the most disloyal and unprofessional politicians when Corbyn was leader.
Expectations of better in this guy would be misplaced.
Biden won in 2021. The policy was going under under Trump, and carried on under Biden. If you look at Assange and further, it was going on under Obama and Bush.
It’s standard operating policy and no president has attempted to change or improve this.
Oh US, next time you want to renew a lease for a strategically important base, the answer is no until you stop being dicks.*
As a Brit, it’s so painfully embarrassing how 1 sided this special relationship is. We are certainly the sub. The whole Assange complicity was intolerable.
You grew up on reddit?
I disagree. Under Blair, we increased spending on health as a percentage of the overall budget. Something Kier isn’t offering. I cannot stand Blair as a person, but I cannot help but feel he offered more to people than Kier has. When you’re getting outflanked to the left by a war criminal, it’s pretty bleak.
Yup. I don’t think anyone deserves to win. Hung parliament could be the best hope for the next election.
“She told the Sunday Telegraph extra money for public services would have to come from economic growth.”
So no money for public service improvements. They are saying they will do no different to the Tories. So they are happy with the state of almost collapse in the NHS and people waiting on trollies in corridors in winter.
Celebrating this and that they are getting backed by big business. If you are paid and your decisions are based on that, isn’t that corruption. Celebrating being corrupt? How is this attractive to anyone, left or right?
This isn’t a new thing. He was late declaring donors for the leadership. Media ignored it because they hate the left of the Labour Party.
This guy is far from squeeky clean. Fortunately for him, what he follows is far worse.
