Seem to remember when the rags got every possible decision (2011/12?) before January & built up a healthy lead, we (apparently) had a dossier and had a word. Subsequently the playing field was levelled for the run in, which gave us the glimmer of a chance that we took. I cant help but suspect...

I posted this earlier, read it, if you're still of that opinion then I've got a nice bridge you might be interested in... https://www.taxpolicy.org.uk/2023/01/19/zahawi_story/ I understand your desire to defend anything Tory so I'll leave it at that, I'm no match for your mental gymnastics.

I have no knowledge or experience as to what these entail, perhaps you cou could share yours?

I know. He's a twat too.

Clarkson from Liverpool? Makes sense now, the unfunny, smug, flapfaced nobhead.

Good point, well made. I was trying to account for a moral or ethical failure of rule for the good of the nation, and also the incompetence of Truss/Kwarteng but didn't bear in mind the possibility of purposeful disaster capitalism as a motive.
