Nationalised last year, the rail network c2c ( Essex and East London) is so bad even the 3 dimwitted Labour MPs ( they supported the state grab) whose constituencies the trains serve has summonsed the MD to demand answers.
Here are the bloody awful stats;
* Before Labour 94% of the trains arrived within 5mins of the scheduled time. Now it’s 71.5%
* Before Labour c2c cancelled 1% of trains. Now it’s 1.7% with 4.7% in August.
* In mid-August to mid - September the average delay to exiting passengers was 3.5 minutes, the longest since records began.
The same is true of SWR and the Great Northern.
The state are bloody awful at running things, not least because trade unions are involved.

Conservative MP Gregory Stafford accused Louise Haigh of “inadvertently misleading the House” twice following yesterday’s PMQs.
And she literally ran off.
The Speaker should have called her back to address the allegations and correct the record.
Ministers must be held accountable for what they say in Parliament.

It's not a good week for British celebrities that were once loved by the BBC and paid whopping amounts for their work. Even Alton Towers have got in on the cancellation action! #parody #satire #altontowers #bbc

Sky News’ Fraser Nelson completely dismantles Treasury minister Emma Reynolds over Labour’s “breathing space” claims, and literally laughs in her face. 👏🏻
Reynolds was on Sky News this morning defending the Budget and the help they’re giving people, saying all the little things add up. Fraser asks what does it all add up to? He brings up a graph of the OBR forecast for disposable income that shows the worst growth we’ve seen in a century and says this is what it adds up to, a second lost decade. “This isn’t breathing space this is the opposite.”
Emma replies that’s why giving people breathing space is so important. Fraser jumps straight back in: where’s the breathing space on that chart? She has no answer, so says another chart shows a decline in living standards but then shows living standards recovering. Fraser points to his chart and says that tiny rise at the end there, is that what you’re talking about?
Emma again tries to claim there’s another chart that gives a more accurate picture, then quickly moves on and says “this is an issue obviously”, which Fraser literally laughs in her face and replies “a little bit yeah.” 🤣
Emma then uses Labour’s classic deflect and blames the previous government, saying they had the worst parliament on record on living standards. Fraser with another great comeback: “And you’ve given us something even worse. It’s quite an achievement.”
Brilliant work from Fraser, actually pointing out the reality instead of letting a minister waffle on with slogans and claims that fall apart under basic scrutiny. Too many interviews let politicians get away with this. More like this, please. 👍🏻

They can't do it, can they? Every wknd they send out an Us Labours MP to get absolutely eviscerated by journalists which inevitably means I've got to dig around for a suitable wig. Today it was Emma um ur um ur Reynolds getting her arse handed to her #parody
