Labour: The Party Supporting Working People?

[Khandro]

'East Midlands Labour are on the hunt for a new office administrator, promising an “exciting” opportunity to be “a part of a team which will help deliver the next Labour government“, and with a list of important duties befitting of a full-time position. A great job for any would-be politico – so long as they’re happy to work for nothing. The role is entirely unpaid.'

Advertising for a volunteer?
They are traditionally not paid.
Of course no doubt no other political parties advertises for volunteers :-)

[dannyk13]

ich, volunteers are not usually asked to fill a full time position.

It isn't a full time position: it's one which in the opinion of the website is "befitting of (sic) a full-time position.
If you look at the list of duties it "could" include it is quite wide

The opinion I should say of the Guido Fawkes website

[ToraToraTora]

Labour have never supported working people, they hate working people, they introduced punitive taxation on working people, they were last in power in the 70s because "working people" have realised. They are the very antithesis of what they claim to be.

[ToraToraTora]

The person who did the most for "working people" in the history of this nation is TGL. She gets vilified by the morons for it but she did much more for them than Labour ever did.

Tora
TGL?

[ToraToraTora]

The Great Lady.

Of course Labour doesn’t support working people. It discourages aspiration, enterprise and self-reliance. If a Labour government is your choice keep your cloth cap handy. You ain’t going anywhere!

Miss! Tora's lying again!

[ToraToraTora]

what lies doug? opinion only.

[ToraToraTora]

last time real Labour was in power the basic rate of income tax was 33%. Who mostly does that affect? The working class of course. It was used as stick to beat the poor down. When TGL came to power in 1979 the tax cuts actually increased tax receipts. Go figure.

I think the advert is targeted at embryos or even the twinkle in someone's eye. :-)

[dannyk13]

Miss, Douglas is sneaking on Tora.

[douglas9401]

'...they were last in power in the '70s...'

That lie, Tora.

[ToraToraTora]

That's true dougie me old china, real Labour were last in power 1979.

[naomi24]

You shouldn’t say that, TTT. It’s daft.

[ToraToraTora]

it's true naomi, Noo Labour was Tory Lite, Blair did away with all the labour traits to get them elected.

[naomi24]

It doesn’t matter how you perceive it. They won on a Labour ticket.
