Where do Northumberland Tories sit in the ‘Race to the Bottom’

 

With hundreds of thousands of people now at crisis point following twelve years of Tory rule, through the siphoning off of profits for the rich and removal of support for those at the bottom, leaving many the only option of attending the ‘workhouses without walls’ which foodbanks have become are now about to be sent on to real life workhouses as Liz Truss launches her ‘Public Heatbank’ program.

Social media seems to rule out Sunak and a colossal surge of love towards Liz Truss from Northumberland’s Tories appears to be where they are at.

Truss who may have u-turned on regional pay boards for now has attacked Northumberland’s largest neighbour Scotland and rubbished its leader, as she has no idea how much help the County gets from its Scottish neighbours and how reliant the Conservatives in the County have become on the Nationalists over the border for steerage on policy.

Let’s take a look at why Northumberland needs to emulate Scotland in assisting the population to survive the crisis the Tories have both created and now have everyone in.

Instead of promoting public heatbanks which in Northumberland may be placed in community centres, a new Tory culture centre or two or church halls in rural areas the all purpose unitary council which holds amazing powers and hasn’t used them since 2017 should emulate Scotland and provide £25 per week per child to every household with children under 16 from October 2022 and change the way in which family units can help each other.


A windfall tax on energy suppliers, stopped by ‘Bojo the great’ the nations outgoing emperor needs to be grasped with both hands and instead of your mother, father, granny and grandad being sat in a church hall knitting dishcloths or whatever other workhouse manufacturing is planned to go on in a Tory heat bank and only those in real crisis outside of families should need help through our rapidly growing workhouses without walls food bank system.

So the noise must ‘Come on Tories’ and do something as you have achieved nothing of note since 2017 except conserving your lack of achievement for a rainy day, well we can tell you it’s raining now.
