    Labour rows back on workers’ rights to blunt Tory ‘anti-business’ claims

    https://www.ft.com/content/30a8a3f1-...8-7b7de05470f4

    Once upon a time Labour was a party that supported working people - it's very creation comes from this.

    Workers' rights have been hard won over a century, it's nothing to be ashamed of, and it's not anti-business to have policies that support workers in the face of corporate attitudes.

    We need government that works for the people, not big business and the would be feudal lords.

      Those days are long gone. Labour is now the party of Conservative-light with a sprinkling of social justice thrown into the mix. An appalling cocktail if you ask me.

          I disagree. As is often the case, follow the money. Labour two main sponsors appear to be the unions and Just Stop Oil. Says a lot about their motivations. Ignore Starmer's announcements, he changes too often to be seen as a credible source of anything.

            I agree with your disagreement.
