Sue Grey has resigned

Hopefully she's the first card to fall in the house of cards, its starting 🤞

👏👏👏

Well she’s been ‘moved across’ to another post.
Same salary?
She’s to coordinate the ‘whole of the UK’. Bet she still has the ear of Keir Starmer.
They must think were easily fooled.

Thank goodness she’s a menace and appears to have much too much power in ANY government

“The adults are back in the room"
“For the first time in many of our lives, actually Britain looks like a little haven of peace and stability”

Comedy gold.

There is more to this than meets the eye?

Good to hear he is a master of something

Kier Starmer should resign and I think he will sooner or later. Labour has dropped so far down the ratings with his crazy policies. Stopping the WFP to kill off many pensioners then proposing to up the inheritance tax is a win win policy for him. Not paying pension for old people dying of hypothermia. I can see through this move. He's a wicked person.

This is all very Daily Mail ish!

No it's all fact.

Oh give over!🤣🤣

So it is Ladyleftfieldlover, without references or detail.

The Guardian has the details of what amounts to a re-shuffle of personnel which includes Sue Grey as the most well known.

Don’t you think you are being rather dramatic? ‘Killing pensioners off’. Four to six pounds a week is a tiny fraction of fuel bills which rose without any kind of control by the last government. You don’t know what is happening with inheritance tax until the budget at the end of the month and only around 4% of estates are affected by it anyway.

‘Not paying pension of old people dying of hypothermia’, more hyperbole, the WFA was never part of the state pension. Perhaps you should stop watching GB News, reading the Daily Mail and logging on to X - 70% of which is misinformation.

FYI
The Labour Party looked into how taking away the WFA from all pensioners other than those on benefits when they were a shadow cabinet, in case the Tories decided to cut it.The findings were that something like up to four thousand pensioners could die.

Surprised to see SG resign from her newly acquired post.
Soon to be settled into another top job I bet tho.

Its in the Guardian report I referenced for details of her new post in the re-shuffle.

It's the first headline on the BBC. Sue Grey quits as Starmers chief of staff.

Thanks Wyllow3 I’d not noticed your link.
So Morgan McSweeney has come out on top🤔

Yes, and the BBC article gives full details of the whole re-shuffle as the Guardian did.

A good move.

Well, inevitably the more right media are presenting it as a battle, the rest as a re-organisation. I don't know much about Morgan McSweeney tbh, it's a wait and see.

I know about that, it was seven years ago and the operative word is ‘could’. Since then pensioners have received rises of 28.5%, 80% of whom own their own homes outright. As I said the blame lies with the last government who allowed the energy companies to make obscene profits not with the loss of the cost of a cup of coffee, a pint of lager or a glass of wine a week.

The government took steps to stop wealthier pensioners including 2.7 million people whose income is more than £50,270 pa from receiving unnecessary handouts, the threshold is too low but hopefully it will be amended when possible.

We ought to at least get her name right.
It’s Gray.

Labour seem to be ripping themselves apart from the inside out. There must be some meaty stories about to drop this week in my opinion.
