Like throwing a ball in the air and claiming credit for bringing it back down to earth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And so he should get the blame when most of his policies have actively fought against the BOE's work. I mean, a 10% minimum wage increase etc. when inflation is down to 3% and the BOE are trying to fight a wage cost spiral, and multiple free cash handouts to those on benefits at a time when companies were crying out for more staff, WTF?

He is salting the earth and poisoning the wells for Labour. But he is going to be hoisted by his own petard because higher inflation will dilute the salt.

Wonderful smell though if you mix Castrol R with the petrol, but nothing could make Sunak and his stinking government smell good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, many of the elderly Brexiteers (my generation) are now dead leaving a majority in favour of re-joining, if they'll have us.

I do not believe this, the questions could have been managed to imply this, in comparison to what we have had Sunuk to be OK The right want to replace him Sunuk seems to be left of center the best that Conservatives can offer. Weirdly he seems to be more left than Starmer perhaps they should change parties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any government that gives control of its borders to a foreign power which the EU is via the free movement of people is unacceptable to the right of the party. It is a vote for globalization which many of us within the party reject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rot continued under May, BJ, Truss and Sunak. Now I just want it to cease to exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yes, if the candidate most likely to beat the "Tory" in my constituency, is Labour, then I'll vote Labour like I did at the last election.
