The Conservative Party

[Ifwecouldjust.......]

Hunt is a far more qualified politician than his immediate predecessors but let’s be honest, everyone knew the mini-budget needed to be ripped up.

Everyone except the bankers and those on the 45p tax rate....... please try and keep up.

There seems to be a dearth of Tories posting on this thread…(just noticed that dearth and thread are anagrams of each other)

I want what’s best for the country- at this time Sunak would bring stability

Except he wouldn’t unite the party and would lose the GE

 

[Ifwecouldjust.......]

If politicians, of all parties, were really in it for the good of the country, we would now be talking about a government of national unity combining the interests and talents of all parties and involving all regions of the UK. The fact that this is not even raised tells you everything you need to know about our politicians, in my view.

Unless every party does it ..no party can do it. And the Tories are only interested in lining their own pockets,

How does this prick account for those EU member states with higher productivity than us whilst also having the WTD?

Furlough.
Nightingale hospitals.
Vaccines.
Ukraine.
Levelling up.
NATO expansion.
Social care reforms.
Could even chuck Brexit in there if only because it was the democratic will of the country.

This isn’t to say the policies were implemented without fault/issues/successfully etc - but more to say the reasoning and intent of these policies doesn’t indicate a PM who was utterly incompetent (see Liz Truss for that).

Just a gentle reminder that the Conservatives haven't enacted legislation that benefited everybody since the Clean Air Act of 1956.

To force the GE now then L/LD would have to give up 40 seats. But Labour stand to gain 100's. They still win a massive majority. And they might not have gained those 40m anyway. Its harder for LD but if they think longer term a GE now would wipe out the tories. For them its worth a roll of the dice.

This is the bitter idea of an ex Tory MP who lost the whip for trying to undermine the Brexit referendum. I doubt Labour would entertain such an idea given it would upset those local party members and they think they have the numbers to win the next election anyway.

With Johnsons honours list and Trusses honours list to come, is there a chance there could be a change of Gov't without a General Election?

Increasing tax personal allowances?
