Do these townsfolk get a say in whether they want their kids to be mown down or gassed by motor vehicles? Anybody, anybody...

Of course, before Ricky came up with this shite, government was in open warfare with the towns and doing everything it could to mak towns fail.

More bollocks from the party that ran out of ideas decades ago.

"Do you live in a place that doesn't get a signpost at the motorway junction? Do you want us to pretend to care about you? Then vote tory!"

He doesn't want to talk about personalities because that would highlight the fact that he hasn't got one. It's the one thing all his money cannot buy.

Carry on Rishi, your master plan to win votes is working well

Almost nine in 10 voters who intend to switch their support from Conservative to Labour candidates in the next general election believe that “green growth” is important for the future of Britain’s economy, according to a poll.

Carried out by pollsters Opinium, the survey found that 82% of all respondents backed the growth of Britain’s green industry to boost the economy, in the same week that the prime minister announced a series of U-turns on the government’s green commitments in an attempt to create a dividing line with Labour before the election.

The survey of more than 5,000 adults found support for the green economy was even stronger among swing voters who supported the Conservatives in 2019 and are now planning to switch to Labour, at 88%...

Almost like they've got the baddie from Titanic running their strategy.

"Looks like we're shedding voters!"

"Not the important voters. Just the naff ones."

Keir’s going to be asked the same question about Sunak so he now has an open goal to show magnanimity instead small man pettiness. Delivered in a slightly patronising ‘poor old Rishi’ tone.

He could compliment him on his sticking to a budget with his suits even though it clearly isn’t enough to cover sufficient material for the length of trousers needed.

Yup, again it shows that he got rid of his comms guru and is led by a guru that ran Zac Goldsmith’s mayoral candidate election.

Today's Telegraph features Nick "I'm hard, me" Timothy saying that the Tories need to take on Britain's complacent elites. Rolled a 1 on self awareness.

Sunak fails to hand WhatsApp messages from time as chancellor to Covid inquiry
Exclusive: PM claims he has changed phone since running the Treasury and did not back up the messages

What a refreshing change from Bozo.

What a refreshing change from Bozo.

Messages tend to back up automatically and according to the number rather than the handset.

Corrupt, panic-stricken prime ministers would have us believe otherwise. They think you/we are too stupid to grasp these simple concepts with the devices which we all also possess.

In other news; we all considered Johnson to be an insufferable chancer who couldn't quite believe his good fortune. A fucking amateur. On the other hand, Sunak is the real deal; he is a slick, schooled con-man who has taken great care to offer nothing to the tabloids while he helps himself, his family, and lord-only-knows who is on the payroll of Goldman Sachs et al, as he casually drops strategic crumbs from the captain's table.

Thing is though, he's had a good decade less than Johnson in the inner sanctum. Only time will tell whether his web of theft and deceit will be quite as robust.

Dominic Cummings bought Sunak into the inner sanctum. Probably convinced Dom he was a visionary tech wizard rather than a banker on the IT investment desk.

Isn't this what Ricky refers to as "flip-flopping"?

Rishi Sunak has insisted he hasn’t given up on the HS2 railway joining Manchester but urged caution saying he wanted to take the time to “make the right decision for the country” with billions of pounds at stake.

The decision comes just weeks afterThe Independent first revealed secret talks between him and chancellor Jeremy Hunt to scrap the route.

Saying one thing. Cancelling it. Saying another thing. Cancelling that. Not being able to make a decision. Just think, if he gets a knighthood he can call himself Sir Flip-flop.

Yet more evidence, were it needed, that Cummings is actually a fucking idiot who thinks he’s a genius. No wonder he and Johnson fitted together so well initially - both supremely entitled, both outrageously selfish, both cover their vast inadequacies by spouting constant gibberish. The only difference is Johnson is just a stream of lies peppered with affected posh boy clumsiness, and Cummings is edgelord technobabble.

See my comments on the Climate Change thread. When the system is designed to propel the likes of Ollie Reeder and Emma Messenger to the top of the tree, you know it's fucked.

Farage rules out rejoining Tory party after Sunak suggests he might be allowed in

If that doesn’t expose how utterly desperate they are for votes, I don’t know what will. Their internal polling must be showing things are even worse than they look. And they look pretty fucking awful for them.

The straight talking right wing truth teller speaks.

In an interview with the BBC’s Chris Mason, asked if it was true that he told the inquiry he no longer had access to the messages, Sunak replied:

What I can tell you because obviously this is a legal process which is going on, is that I’m helping the Covid inquiry fully and very, very expansively with everything …

I think as people will know that this is the legal inquiry, there’s a full process, I submit a lot of different evidence and documentation. I will be interviewed, all of that will be transparent and public.

And of course I’m helping with all of that, as people would expect. We want to learn the lessons from Covid.
