Yet ANOTHER reason that the British Electorate deserve a Public Inquiry into the corrupt criminality of the last 14 years of maleficence Tory governance. We need the Tories held to account and to face criminal prosecution, with the proceeds of crime laws employed to recover OUR embezzled taxpayer monies.

Give it 5-10 years and England will vote Tory again...its what they do.
-
Tax payers, private sector, pensioners, pension payers are about to get hit

Although Hunt 'saved' his Tory chums buttox post Truss, here he is still incapable of realising all the wrongs Tories have done... not just with money, but blood too... and seems authoritative in saying what he does, the idiot. The Tories don't even make a worthy opposition. At least Reeves reports a credible oration.

The Rwanda Scheme and The Furlough Scheme is why we are in this mess.

Watching this lot is so depressing, we are not safe physically or financially under these fools.

I didn’t vote for them and knew I would pay more tax after the election.

This is what you get when you have a bunch of second hand car dealers running the country for 13 years.

If the economy is so bad, why give out so much in pay rises? Would a company do that if they had a black hole in their finances.... the answer is no!
