What do people want from the government and Starmer?
This government inherited an open border immigration policy which saw 4.6 million arrivals in 3 years and net immigration of 2.6 million, the NHS was practically on its knees, the police were so understaffed and underfunded that there wasn’t enough police officers on the front line. Illegal immigration was on its peek and asylum claims peaked at 190K and the raise of nationalism and racism.
Starmer was supposed to solve all of this in his second day and when he wasn’t able to solve all of it in his second day they made him the most unpopular leader of all time and basically bullied him all around media but no one could tell why he was hated and what people expected from him. The far right expected him to kick all non whites and far left expected him to declare war on Israel, ban jews and open the borders wide and let everyone be citizens
So far in two years he had cut net immigration down by 80%, has cut inflation, removed the two child cap which lead to decrease of poverty among children, has a plan to solve the Boris wave, handled Trump very well, passed new tenant rights, invested in apprenticeship and education, increased minimum wage, increased work rights, made asylum a temporary status and to be permanent it’s needed a 30 years of residence, economy is up, fastest growing economy in G7, closer EU ties, better NHS and lower NHS waiting times.
So what do people want from Starmer and the government? For god’s sake let the man carry on with the job and let him finish his 5 year mandate. Just because he is not as charismatic and he is boring doesn’t mean he is bad.
I also do understand that far right people want to get rid of net
