These are the issues Labour should be focusing on Sydney , law and order , the communities , the workplace , NHS and making work pay .

They need another minority cause to ram down my throat like I need a hole in the head if they want to topple this lot in 2024 .

Your last 2 posts have been absolutely excellent Tyke.

So other than Starmer heckling the on stage comedian once a week at PMQ's when is he going to reveal himself , develop a strategy and some policies ? .

Well I sincerely hope they are doing more listening than talking because telling folk like me what we should think or not think ain't worked too well for the last 10 years .

What I want to see personally .

1 , Clean the bloody streets and communities up , big sentences for carrying knifes , drug dealing and anti social behaviour , not plastic bobby's but a huge increase in on the ground Police Officers , your seen as the soft party ..... change it .

2 , End back door NHS privatisation whilst also having a root and branch appraisal of NHS procurement procedures , heads to roll if not delivering the best value for the taxpayer .

3 , Stop prioritising minorities and start speaking for everybody as one , it creates divides , the very thing the tories cash in on , you do the fecking work for em .

4 , Fund council's so they can purchase more housing stock , funded council owned properties and maintenance programmes are the best landlords you can have .

5 , The Jeremy Kyle benefit culture began with you lot and Blair , don't go there again and I don't give a feck how many kids they have either , they brought em in to the world so they feed em , it's not up to Mr Joe Taxpayer to do it but at least have the nous to make work pay more than benefits .

6 , End ZHC's entirely , only two contracts should exist , full time or agreed number of part time hours at the point of appointment .

6 tests for thi Starmer , hope tha does better than tha did with the last ones you set yourself .

I remember reading something not long before Christmas saying he was planning a major policy speech in March/April ready for the local election in May.

No point doing it at the moment as it will just get lost in how to deal with covid.
