They should be held to everything they say to get in office, Truss is just making shit up to get elected, I don’t trust any of them but Truss is a snake.
Who should be the next leader of the Tory party?

It really seems to be narrowing down to this farce becoming simply truss and the rabid gammons against pretty much everyone else, even substantial amounts of her own party, particularly the parliamentary part.
The upshot is the levels of destabilising and splitting the tories that will occur.

The Johnson continuity candidate.
Her weakness is her ego. Any donors who use that will get what they want aided by the huge parliamentary majority.

If "held to" means doing it, stuff that. Defence spending at 3% of GDP = 5p on income tax rates.

Why do we need to increase defence spending?
The Russians have spent six months demonstrating their military ineptitude, and the poor performance of their armaments. We already have sufficient nukes if it turns nuclear.
And why do we in the UK have to boost our defence spending to counter threats (real or imagined) that apply to all of western Europe?
I'd like to think she's playing to the gammon gallery who want a return to the days of empire. - Much like Putin does.

It is a sad piece of ‘Willy waving’ by a country which is desperate to cling on to any form of influence and power.
We’ve become relatively insignificant thanks to brexit, our economic influence is waning rapidly and our reputation as an honest country is disappearing down the toilet thanks to people like our impending leader.
Nothing left but to insult foreigners and shout about how big your rocket is.
