Greens’ ‘undeliverable’ promises will let voters down, says Labour minister

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/nov/07/greens-undeliverable-promises-will-let-voters-down-says-labour-minister

As well as discussing how the Greens won't be able to deliver on their promises, he also talks about why Labour are going to raise tax, despite promising not to, and how great ID cards are going to be, despite the fact that ID cards were not on the manifesto.

yeah we wouldn't want to elect a party whose leader makes a certain number of pledges that are undeliverable.

Thatcher may be dead, but TINA lives on in the Labour Party that was her self-professed greatest work.

For anyone else who didn't know, like me, what TINA meant.

He isn’t even discussing which promises they won’t be able to deliver on and why. Just slinging mud. And stating the next election will be a fight between reform and labour - which, if they keep going the way they are, may not be the case.

Maybe, but we'd still like them to try.
