Keir Starmer gets swiftly ratioed AGAIN on social media over another BS claim

On social media, Keir Starmer claimed Labour is “helping” people with the cost of living. But looking at the ratio he received, people know the governing party are making the cost of living crisis worse:

Here’s how we are helping you with the cost of living in 2026:

➡️ Freezing rail fares

➡️ Expanding free school meals

➡️ Providing 30 of hours free childcare

➡️ Increasing the National Living Wage

➡️ Introducing a £3 bus fare cap

— UK Prime Minister (@10DowningStreet) January 7, 2026

Starmer and his “propaganda”

One user commented:

This is some 1984 propaganda bullshit

Quite right. In 1984, the government reverses reality through the Ministry of Truth (actually lies) and the Ministry of Peace (actually war). Similarly, Labour claims it’s solving the cost of living crisis, when it’s only getting worse under its stewardship.

“Businesses close”

Another Twitter user responded to Starmer by saying:

You’ll be providing more school meals because more working parents won’t be working as unemployment rises and businesses continue to close... freezing fares and capping buses doesn’t cut the cost of living when jobs and businesses are shutting their doors.

The rate of people not in employment has risen to 5.1% under Labour. And that’s not including the millions more who are economically inactive (meaning they haven’t looked for work in three months).

The cost of living doesn’t just impact people, but businesses too, which can only further drive inflation. High energy prices due to a lack of a publicly owned Green New Deal drive up costs for businesses, especially energy intensive ones. The privatisation of essentials is highly inflationary because it impacts prices throughout the economy.

But Starmer and Labour have further made employment levels worse through introducing regressive tax increases on businesses. Instead of making businesses with large revenues and profits pay more, Starmer increased business contributions across the board, impacting small, local and independent outlets.

“Bloody freezing”

Commenting on Starmer saying Labour is “freezing rail fares”, one user simply said:

I’m bloody freezing, I can’t afford to put the heating on

Indeed, energy bills have increased by £190 per year since Labour came to power.

Further, contrary to Starmer’s claim in the tweet, Labour isn’t introducing a £3 bus cap. The cap was £2 under the Conservatives. So it’s actually a continuation of a 50% increase.

Starmer to resign?

The idea Labour is solving inflation is complete nonsense. And everyone knows it, given YouGov found 85% of Britons believe Starmer is handling the cost of living crisis badly, with the lowest net approval for the subject ever at the polling company.

Will Starmer’s resignation come soon?
