Rishi Sunak

The new cabinet is rehash of previous ones, a retread of proven failures and integrity and competence ditched in favour of party management.

Our 5th PM in six years and the same old stink. In terms of political instability and with an economic policy designed to run contrary to our interests, we are paying a high price for Brexit, and none this helped by a pandemic and war in Europe.

I give it six months. This zombie Govt is out of ideas and people. It literally ate its own brains years ago.

There are at least four people in the cabinet (Hunt , Jenrick, Braverman & Sunak himself )who have broken the ministerial code at some point in their career and some very recently.
 
Non-dom status....

Difficult decisions .... could it be under threat?
 
Tunbridge Wells - moved money to wealthy places, says Starmer

Ooh, Sunak's prepared replies. The line is that Tunbridge Wells is a deprived rural area!

I‘m probably an outlier on this one, but I felt it was right to prioritise speed over procedures. Rather a few fraudulent claims go through, than a lot of people struggling to keep themselves and their businesses afloat go under through delays.

I‘d agree that procedures could have been better later on during the crisis when there was perhaps less urgency, but I still think the decision to give first and ask questions later was correct.

I agree with you here. It’s easy to bash governments in hindsight - Brown gets a lot of unfair criticism about flogging our gold reserves at all time lows - in hindsight it weren’t the best decision but at the time it was a perfectly reasonable decision.

Like you I’ll take losing £5bn in fraud over millions losing jobs and homes. Some folk have already been sent to prison. It’s the fraudsters that need to sleep at night and should be the ones we are slagging off. At the end of the day so long as we learn from our mistakes and leave a pandemic play book for our great great grandkids when they get their pandemic it will all have been worth it.

Starmer pushing the "working people".

Sunak pushing Brexit. Doesn't he know half the people who voted for it think it was a mistake?

Brexit is done. Yet Sunak is still using it to divide and rule.
 
Felt Starmer's anger energy there (he's clearly reading the room).

Suank's smarm evident in contrast (and reverting to an already archaic script)
