And all of that would be okay if it weren’t for the fact that he’s also clamping down on protest, attempting to implement population tracking via government issued ID cards, has implemented draconian internet crackdown laws, and won’t shut up about immigration, despite the fact that even labour’s own polling indicates that people aren’t that bothered about it.
What happened to all of the good policies that people actually voted for like citizens initiatives, or the commitment to having a committee to discuss electoral reform. When did all that go?
What clamping down on protest? Charging violent thugs in the race riots last year? I wouldn’t count that. Protesting is different to rioting. Charging people for supporting a proscribed group? That’s fair enough. I’ve been to a number of pro Palestine protests, and nothing bad has happened. To the contrary, the government has been cutting ties with Israel and shifting towards Palestine.
population tracking via government issued ID cards
How? I don’t think a right to work check counts as tracking.
implemented draconian internet crackdown laws
Fair enough, the OSA is a bit crap. Unfortunately it has broad support, both from politicians and the public.
and won’t shut up about immigration
Like it or not, that’s what the electorate wants. And he’s here to govern the country, not just Labour supporters.
What happened to all of the good policies
Those have been getting implemented, but you don’t hear it in many headlines.
You will never have a government you agree with on every issue.
Even the government themselves will have to do things they don’t want to do, either for parliamentary, media, or electorate support, or things like fiscal reality. Unfortunate, but that’s the real world.
