Chaos in the Tory Party continues long after the anarchical policies of Liz Truss and her crashing of the pound. Rishi Sunak seems intent on destroying Tory
credibility assuming they had any in the first place.
As the Frank Hester row continues with the Conservative Party after they have so readily portrayed Labour
as being a racist party over antisemitism, it is now clear that the real racist party is the one ironically with an ethnic minority leader.
General Perplection over General Election
When's Rishi gonna call it? He has to do it sometime and as Labour now has the same amount of MPs that it had in 2019 after having suspended several of its members
over antisemitism charges, the Tories look in real trouble. Are they now completely dead in the water? Spoiler alert: Of course they are, and they should have been a long time ago!
Trump untruths trot to Clacton
Reform are rising, and making a huge racket, but is the racket just all racism. Farage insists not, but how often can we believe a man who's changed parties so many times?
Labouring under illusions of Change
As Labour is now in office, we await the budget which should be coming any day now, and not before time. This marks the longest period between an election and a first budget in history
and sets grand expectations for Rachel Reeves to pull the theoretical rabbit out of the hat, but will this rabbit be starved to death by further austerity? This is what many economists fear
as Britain is on a seemingly inexorable path to continued austerity. This cannot be solely put down to the handling of the economy by Liz Truss but by ideological decision making. Whilst I am all for
tax cuts for working people, our tax burden is not high enough for the services it supports and the state does not need to shrink but in fact after years of under investment requires huge funding to
support further technological development.
Labouring under illusions of Change still
The change that Labour promised still hasn't quite materialised. Whilst, yes, they have kept 17 of their 80 pledges, there is still more work to do, and much of this change relies on Rachel Reeves driving investment in our economy. This might just include supporting the arts, those currently on disability benefit, and looking at the jobs people actually want to do and the areas of the economy that these people come from. Real jobs for real people, not AI focused.
