...doesn't matter who does it the result is the same, go Penny!

Still amazed that Truss sat next to Hunt as he delivered the complete U-turn.
She looked completely detached from reality, I guess humiliation doesn’t register with some.
Poor Penny Mordaunt sat the other side too, having already faced the barrage of the urgent question whilst her boss was hiding, only for her to turn up after the humiliation from Starmer had finished.

Does anyone know why Truss turned up late and sat there with a stupid look on her face., had she lost her voice, as well as her MPs losing her confidence.

More urgent stuff to attend to, sorting out pork, cheese and apple markets whilst Sir Graham Brady sat there with his head in his hands, waiting for some paracetamol! PMSL.

When the new Chancellor was asked why he has not capped Bankers wages and Bonuses he replied .The more they get paid the more tax we get. He lives up to his name ...Hunt.

"The more they get paid the more tax we get. " - yes the left have never grasped that basic equation.

Just say, just say, a GE is called , what do those in the camp of Starmer,think he and his party will do ? And how?

[ToraToraTora]

Only the Tories can all an election and they won't, end of.

[gulliver1]

20.30 The Tories have not got the Guts in them to call a G.E .Because they know the Damn Savages would be wiped of the planet for years.

[ToraToraTora]

So they'd be mad to call an election then gully, right oh!

The longest running pantomime the cons have ever produced. The leading rolls changing almost weekly.:0)

[FatticusInch]

As I said yesterday, there are too many factors against them now.
Tanked the economy, raised mortgages and spooked the markets.
Add on top a dire economic forecast, further austerity yet refused to initially tax the energy companies on their eye-watering profits and the impending threat of 1 million workers on strike whilst their fiscal event looked to make the very rich a lot richer.
The public/electorate will be paying for their mistakes for quite a while so will not forget when it comes to the GE.
Whether it’s called in 2 months or 2 years makes no difference, they’re finished and look less credible and more comical almost by the day, exacerbated by the most hapless and incapable PM that anyone can remember, she exudes ineptitude on a daily basis.

I'm bemused by all of this. The non-budget of Kwarting would have done nothing for me and neither will the u-turn budget of Hunt. I am just a poor senior citizen, like many others, who in the eyes of politicians, will just be a burden on the state, and won't be around for long anyway. Us baby boomers have been called the lucky generation. Some luck!

[gulliver1]

Roll out the Barrel .........We've got the Blues on the run. PMSL.

[pimplyteen]

I wonder how many had their dreams of their own home dashed overnight by this silly flip flop?
