Current Affairs The Conservative Party

[peteblue]

Thats what the party you voted for wanted you to believe.

While they filled their pockets.

Who filled their pockets ? Apart from Blair……

I agree with everything you say except this part, this policy alone was unfunded and could have cost the country billions, supporting some of the rich and their big houses. It’s right to scrap it, instead the focus needs to be on what comes after the next six months - I hope it’s a scheme which is targeted on those most at need and not including the highest rate tax payers.

That part should be funded by a windfall tax off the energy companies profits, tell me if normal working/ not working families can afford bills up to and some cases more than £5000 per year.

You missed out- the spiralling mortgage costs, the contraction in the economy, the 12 years of low growth, the pensions funds becoming insolvent and facing margin calls all at the same time as spiralling inflation costs.

HS2 cut to a third although costs have gone up how much?
The sex offenders
P&O
a problem brewing with the good Friday agreement
Test & Trace £38billion disappeared

We had Covid tbf…and support to businesses and individuals….

How many tens of billions were wasted on that though mate? Like test and trace etc.

A woman once said, eventually you end up running out of other peoples money. That is what conservatism is now finding.

We all face challenges. How you handle them dictates your success rate. In the end, unsuccessful people will always blame circumstance, rather than their own performance.

I don't even think I can go into Brexit.

It's a spectacular litany of failure.

Here we go it's the Anti Brexiteers to blame, kin hell give it up, you won.

Anti-Brexiteers have possibly destroyed the Tory Party

A hostile cabal within have wreaked grievous damage on the Party, potentially causing it to split or disintegrate

I agree. When they stitched up Boris for their own personal ambitions I gave up with my own MP and vowed never to vote again for him. Boris always supported his ministers, very few changes were made during his tenure, good team management. Unfortunately Sunak, Javid etc saw an opportunity to try for the big job, and basically screwed up the country in doing so ending up with the lightweight known as Truss.

I will shed no tears if they all get turfed out, I’ve said so many times, we need a completely new set of politicians….

The thing is mate, Johnson was not a loyal supporter of ministers. He was a pain in the backside, and was a key plotters against May.

Hes not the only one, but the idea he was some party liner is completely fake news Pete.

Don't underestimate what a few SEC championship rings could do for your program.
His passion is undisputed. He's available.

And at the end of 13 years of Labour we had a note “there’s no money left”…….

You have the worst selective memory on here, the National debt has been tripled to over 2 and a half trillion built up over the last 13 years, keep up Pete.

I wonder how long it would take for the "Brexit deniers" to get the blame. I mean does anyone deny Brexit has happened?

 

[peteblue]

That was a tongue in cheek joke mate.

With this lot, the economy is wrecked. We have high inflation and contractions. I never thought that was even possible.

The economy is not wrecked. We had problems with the £ and Gilt %. They will resolve themselves. The U.K. economy is fine and growing. The only thing that will slow it down is union strikes and the BBC and co trying to run us down. The government is screwed, Truss made a mess of the mini budget, but where were the permanent secretaries within our rolls royce civil service who advise them. A lot has gone wrong but it can all be fixed…..

It isn't failure, somewhere along the way there'd have been a success. The odds say it is impossible to get every call wrong consecutively. The evidence is all there, its been a pish take from minute one, and every time the public accepted yet another shatshow they the tories were emboldened to take the pish again that little bit more. Whats happened is ground zero has been found, bedrock, the lowest point, sadly we have been sabotaged by our shepherds and now the wolves are circling to pick off whats left.

Time for some score settling.
