Rishi Sunak

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)
