With some justification, though I find the use of "centrist" a bit tiresome. He sounds more like a pub bore. What time was actually spent on "colonial reparations"? They've got the same policy as every other government. They're not paying any. And meeting with foreign leader isn't a distraction from the job. It is part of the job, and it can be a very efficient way of pushing mutual interests, including on trade. Which benefits the economy, something generally regarded as being an important part of government business. Nobody's sat there thinking "If only Keir weren't meeting that foreign guy, we'd have got energy prices down this afternoon"

This is great too. Just reform pensions and benefits and wind power! Bish bash bosh! How difficult can it be? I'm in charge of strategy! And just cut taxes! He's not actually got much interest in policy. Did he get distracted when Ed Milliband was explaining why wind producers sometimes get paid for energy that they produce but which can't be handled by the grid? I think we're working on the issue. As Ed would have made clear, and the Prime Minister's likely support.

I think this chap might have said some of the drivel that's been routinely assumed was coming from Morgan McSweeney. They're well rid of him.

I don't really get this point though. Has the Government "lied repeatedly"? I seem to remember being fairly clear about the shit we're in, and the time it would take to improve things. And even the big mistakes on eg (economic) immigration, are basically what was promised. My impression was that "change" was going to take a long time.

Likewise, I'm struggling to think what they lied about repeatedly, nor that they didn't do their homework.
