foreveryoung Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The media are ripping Truss a new one on every thing she proposes if she gets in. Her Ideas for curing our problems are laughable. How would anyone vote for her is bonkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No politician is perfect, and Sunak of course is far from perfect, But at least he’s not a complete **** moron. How is he losing this vote to her?

Wainy316 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I’d say the 2019 GE was more damaging for this country than the 2016 Referendum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things have got more catastrophic under Johnson’s watch. To be honest, I would say this all started with the 2010 election campaign, when Osborne decided to hammer Labour on “overspending” and running up “unsustainable debt” and it became received wisdom that we needed to **** up every benefit (except pensions) and public service in the country. Everything has kind of flowed from there. But you can draw lines back to all kinds of things. It all contributes. Brexit was probably the most avoidable mistake. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Whoever wrote that also seems to think that our dogs and cats won’t get cold. They are a constant source of surplus heat we can all huddle up to in a freezing cold house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such hyperbole is undoubtedly satisfying but it is impossible to think of a high-point when it comes to post-war British governments. The system just stumbles from crisis to cock-up and then back to crisis again. I thought it was going to be 1997 but that turned out badly just like every government before and since. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far from perfect but 1997-2007 was certainly the most prosperous time for this country in living memory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, a major blight that will always accompany memories of that government and rightly so. Domestically though, they did at least manage to have the house in fair order.

Genie Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 The way Truss starts every answer with “to be clear” or “to be absolutely clear” but then gives a vague non-committal response is really getting on my tits already. Shes going to be a nervous wreck by Christmas when the media really get their claws into her inept performance and clueless attempt at leadership.
