00:00Yeah, I don't know enough about politics, but if they promise something and then they're

00:04changing what they've said, that's definitely not a good look for them at all.

00:08They, like every politician, they may promise certain things and just don't deliver.

00:14Most of the time they promise all sorts of things because they want to vote.

00:18It doesn't mean they're ever going to do it.

00:21And that goes to both sides, you know, lots of positive things that never happen and lots

00:25of negative things never happen.

00:26Probably anybody can afford as is, house prices have gone up, everything's gone up, paying

00:30more to taxes just seems useless at this point.

00:34Yeah they have gone back on their promises and it's not generally what Labour represents.

00:39I'm not currently a Labour supporter myself, but yeah, politics, it's politics, they generally,

00:46well, suddenly they do go back on what they say they're going to make decisions they have

00:49to make.

00:50But yeah, ultimately part of the reason this may have come across is because, yeah, there

00:56is a big gap in spending and it is a big hole that needs to be filled.
