The Conservative Party

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Kwasi, as reported in the DT this morning, is warning the BofE they need to get a grip on inflation. I would have thought that getting a grip was a governmental responsibility.

No can't see it either if we are talking defeat but any level of decent given its a brand new PM is big news. Are they united behind this? The number of no votes and abstentions will be interesting.

Correct me if I am wrong but if the House of Lords vote against these measures then they will be thrown out as they weren't in the Tory manifesto!!

A mixture of dreamers - fantasists and a Bond villain - scary as shit

Fooking growth… I’ve seen more growth in my hod trick after my prostate was removed.
I’ve sacked off increasing my pension contributions and I’m lucky enough to slightly increase mortgage payments instead at least I’ll know what’s mine . Never ever thought about leaving these shores but week by week with this lot it gets more tempting. I don’t want to give in though . If it’s worth fighting for we must take them on.

We have got our old passports back but can’t afford to go anywhere.

We won’t get away paying VAT though ;)

Bit of a joke this growth thingy, it has been predicted that our growth will be -4% but Kazi has said it will be +2.5%?? That is a turnaround of 6.5%. Not going to happen.

What part of will help sway and it's not the only factor, don't you understand.

The equivalent of a gnat farting in to a gust of wind

No surprise that the hope is that the biggest driver of exports will be Financial Services!

I think this government have completely lost the plot this year. Nothing surprises me anymore.

It’s just ridiculous isn’t it.

Growth is not its purpose.

Thanks for the economic lesson. It's been a while since I spent 5 years studying the subject.

I'll return the favour.....you are naive to think that and marginalise the plethora of other issues: likely squeeze on public sector funding (including transport infrastructure), land is overpriced (even accounting for favourable FOREX), low productivity, poorly skilled workforce, labour supply issues, uncertainty about what trade markets can be accessed, likely future squeeze on incomes etc.. There are more obvious issues, as well as the seemingly back of a fag packet analysis of the impact of fiscal, and wider economic, policies. We are a basket case.

He’s partly right though. Loads of British companies (and ex publicly owned ones) will be bought by foreigners!

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

They are telling us that these extremely expensive and risky measures are to attract business and important workers into the UK. So why the fuck did they force a hard brexit that drove business and important workers out of the UK?

So they could do exactly what they’re doing now.
