That's the most insidious, despicable and telling form of political cowardice possible. Usually a symptom displayed by extreme left-wing zealots and with violence where they deem necessary. Denigrating and devaluing your own kind, illogically and counter-intuitively. It is done to garner support from the politically illiterate and weak, a cheap shot masquerading as self-guilt, in place of reasoned argument.
If you want to destroy a section of society, these scum follow a set path usually - ridicule (Little Britain type humour) then devaluation of that group, followed by lies and misinformation (often by omission and selective use of facts) and finally attempting to remove their identity.
It's actually one big admission of jealousy, envy and the inherent failure and weakness of those in the political spectrum they are themselves claiming to represent, compared to the targeted group.
Fortunately those supporting or endorsing such views are complete morons, invariably exposed as such and not taken too seriously. They are dangerous to nobody bar themselves as by definition they can never usurp complete power or control.
Like the type of politicos @ChopleyIOM supports - though I suspect tongue-in-cheek as few intelligent people would ever be brainwashed by them, just people who think IQ is a homecare store and wanking a Chinese province.

Details are leaking of Truss's proposed energy price plan and..... it's not looking good.
Remember, Labour's plan was to windfall tax the energy companies and give the money to the population. It was a pretty blunt instrument as it handed cash over to everyone, irrespective of wealth, but it did at least ensure that no one would pay more for their energy for the next six months, and it took excessive profits away from the privatised energy companies that are making out like bandits.
Truss's plan is shaping up to be a massive government loan TO THE ENERGY COMPANIES, which is then paid back BY THE POPULATION over the next ten years or more. (And rumours abound that her plan only covers the next four months, instead of six, and last time I checked it can still be pretty cold in January and February.)
So in essence, the energy companies get given tens of billions pounds of government (taxpayer!) money as a bribe to keep bills fixed in the short term, and then in the medium to long term, everyone in the UK has to pay higher energy bills for a decade or more to pay the bribe back to the government. All those billions the energy companies are making in massive profits and shareholder dividends? They get to keep the lot.
Also, Truss's measure will be inflationary, which means more interest rate rises, which means more misery for millions of people already struggling to get by, and also means more profits for the banks because they hold government debt and the higher interest rates are, the more profits they make on that debt.
So Truss has come out of the gates swinging there. Still, at least she's telling everyone who she is and who she's going to govern for.
Also, no suggestion there will be any help for businesses. At this point all we can hope for is that the leaks are wrong.

After all according to you your beloved labour will win the next election and they are so great they will fix any mess created by this government.

'Beloved Labour' - not exactly a ringing endorsement from me earlier this month.
There are many other examples of me being rather lukewarm on Labour in its current incarnation, it took me about three minutes to find those.
I think they'd be better than the Tories. I don't think they're great. I much preferred Corbyn's version of the party, although I also accept he wasn't going to win a general election.

I wonder why that was! - you're mad to be honest. You support a marxist idiot yet accept he would never win for being just that. No wonder you're here every day blowing off your frustrations. I think you need to revise your expectations and stop wasting time wondering why the runner with his feet tied together never wins the race. It's simple, really it is mate.
You're sounding like the ManUre supporters always whingeing on sports radio call-ins bemoaning the fact they can't win any more, harking back to the old glory days while blaming everybody and everything for their demise
Look mate, let me remind you:
2010 election - your side LOST
2015 election - your side LOST
2016 Brexit Ref. - your side LOST
2017 election - your side LOST
2019 election - your side LOST
I think you need to face up to reality that your brand of 1970's socialism and bearded trots went out of fashion half a century ago - for good reason.

WE WILL RISE AGAIN. And the country will be as proud, firm and erect as this magnificent marrow.
The problem in 2019 was Corbyn himself with large chunks of the electorate, Labour's policies actually polled very well. Starmer was supposed to be a continuation of those policies but with an electable (if rather dull) face, hence the annoyance on the left of the party that he's ditched so many of those commitments.
Remember we're in a world now where over half of Tory voters want to see the energy companies back in public hands.
Anyway, let's see how things turn out in 2024 once 'The Human Hand Grenade' Truss has been at the helm for a couple of years. (Assuming she lasts that long, and TBH I'd put the odds of that at about 50/50.)

That will not go down well at all or indeed stave off the growing groundswell of discontent, which will likely explode into civil unrest within the next six months.
One thing I do agree with Corbyn on, is nationalising the energy companies, not the suppliers that provide us with our gas and electricity, but the companies operating in the UK energy fields in the North Sea and then subsequently making a killing by selling to the international market.
Failure for the Truss government to do this, will result in civil disobedience and unrest we have not seen the like of in the UK since the late 70's and early to mid 80's.
Think I am being alarmist?

I don't really like the sound of her plan, which apparently was the energy firms proposal [the suppliers not producers afaik but could be both] surely it's predicated on prices going back to affordable levels, otherwise we're paying back the loan on top of high continuing energy costs.
Windfall tax to help fund a price cap, plus govt topping it up, and small businesses can apply [not tescos and amazon] for an energy loan which they pay back like a student loan, doesn't sound too wacky and far left given what is occurring, it's what I would call classic mixed market economy, govt intervention when things go awry.
Still waiting for the EU market reform, while germany has announced a raft of measures for their population, something fishy in all of this. In the uk there is an 8% green levy on our bills plus the 5% vat, so that's 13% cream of a growing, out of control price.

Have to agree the "leaked" plan sounds poor, kicking the can down the road and putting the debt onto our future bills. Labour's windfall tax proposal sounds much fairer. As much as I want to choke on those words.
Just watched Truss' speech in Downing Street. Dull material, dull delivery. "Aspiration". "Opportunities". "Tax cuts". "Brilliant Britain". She's no orator.
Today completed a short 12-mile car journey on a safe, pretty straight A road. Went through 3 sets of brand gleaming new average speed cameras. At the end of it all, about a mile on, there was a mobile unit with 3 officers hiding in a hedge. The priorities of this country are completely fucked up.

She most assuredly isn't, the next two years promise boredom and horror in equal measures.
Also quite interesting to see her praise Johnson to the skies again, whilst also pledging to 'get Britain working again', yet Johnson has been PM for the last three years and the Tories in power for twelve, if Britain isn't working, you don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to work out who the culprits are.

In the bbc mindset, and probably elsewhere, all the bame folk truss has surrounded herself with are simply brilliant because of their skin colour and deserve glowing write-ups. Whereas they don't actually like the white head girl liz very much at all, that's my impression.
The conservatives are forever trying to outdo labour on the woke credentials and optics these days, that's what it looks like, two prime ministers in a row have given all or most of the top roles to bame MPs, talk about positive discrimination, are we really to believe they were the best candidates amongst hundreds both times, the odds seem to me to be bonanza like for hitting a 10,000x win!
She's making the same exact mistake Bojo did, hiring chums rather than who is best suited for the role, so we will have a f***ing pantomime again. Alas I'm starting to feel the same way about the conservatives as I do the ukgc!

The only thing I'm really interested in here is what Truss and her government are actually doing - and by all accounts their first major action will be loading around £100bn of debt onto the taxpayer to fix energy bills, rather than tax some of the £170bn in massive, excess profits that the privatised energy companies are making. (I'm sure it's completely coincidental that Truss used to work for Shell.)
PMQs is looking like it's going to be rather dull going forward, it's no secret that Starmer is hardly a charisma machine, and Truss seems like she'll be a good match for him in the dullness stakes.
Her complete culling of anyone remotely connected to Sunak gives a clear indication of the ideological zeal with which she'll be running things.
I fear we're entering a long, harsh winter.

Not meaning to get all accountancy but profit means very little, it's an accounting adjustment - you could earn more profit the next year by simply changing how you value assets/depreciate them 
Add to that that those Companies previously made losses. Should they then go hand in cap to Government and ask for money?Not meaning to get all accountancy but profit means very little, it's an accounting adjustment - you could earn more profit the next year by simply changing how you value assets/depreciate them
