The mind boggles as to who thought this would be good publicity without thinking of the obvious pitfalls Rishi, it would be a great idea with great optics, if you went and talked to that land mine over there.

sidcow Posted October 29, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) I wrote to my MP to complain about their actions (at the start of the Liz Truss cluster duck) I've had a letter from him today. Just a generic response about Sunak now being in charge and not specifically addressing anything I'd said. So my mind is unchanged. Not a chance in hell they get my vote next election, not that there is anything he could have written to get that but still.

Genie Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 It’s not going away… Quote An email sent from Suella Braverman's personal account on the day she had to resign over a security breach could throw fresh doubt over her claims about the speed with which she took action. The email, seen by the BBC, told the recipient of a highly sensitive message that Ms Braverman had sent in error to "delete and ignore" it. She has said she reported the mistake "rapidly" to officials. But the BBC understands it took hours for her to respond. BBC The BBC have done a great job stirring the pot the last few months.

Popular Post markavfc40 Posted October 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2022 Latest polling shows that Sunaks Tories are more trusted to fix the economy than Starmers Labour. How thick/gullible are people if they think the bastards that broke the economy, the bastards responsible for the lack of growth since 2010, the bastards responsible for the huge increase in government debt since 2010 (even pre covid) are the people we should trust to fix it all. You couldn't make it up could you. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted October 30, 2022 Moderator Share Posted October 30, 2022 Is no one posting about this story? This from ITV but its all over the media Quote Liz Truss' phone reportedly hacked by Russian spies while foreign secretary Liz Truss’s phone was reportedly hacked by suspected Russian spies while she was foreign secretary - leading to calls for the government to urgently investigate. The breach was discovered when then-foreign secretary Ms Truss was running for the Tory leadership in the summer, but details were suppressed by then-prime minister Boris Johnson and Cabinet Secretary Simon Case, The Mail on Sunday reported. Spies suspected of working for Russian president Vladimir Putin gained access to sensitive information, including discussions about the Ukraine war with foreign officials, the newspaper said, citing unnamed sources. It also claimed private conversations between Ms Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng criticising Mr Johnson fell into the hackers’ hands, potentially leaving them at risk of blackmail. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You couldn't make it up could you. Which way are they saying they'll vote though? Labour still around or above 50% and Tories still low 20%s There appears to have been a VERY minor swing from L to C of about 6% which i pretty normal and well within the margin of error of any poll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have Labour on 44% share of the vote, down six points since last week. The Tories are on 28%, up five points since last week, so pretty much your 6%. In fairness you'd always expect a new PM bounce, and an even bigger bounce this time given they were replacing Truss. I personally don't get how some people see this as a new government though. They are still Tories, the same Tories who have ruined the country since 2010. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 A lot of the Tory voters are lifers aren’t they. They just need half a reason to vote for them. Now they’ll be convincing themselves this is a fresh start and all that went before was the old regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
