The pre election lies and dissembling.

The post election targeting of pensioners in a complete about face from what they saying to make political capital, before the election.

The general two faced approach

The complete lack of oratorical skills of Starmer, Reeves and Rayner.

What seems a lack of conviction and certainly lack of inspiration when attempting to explain or justify what they are doing / proposing.

The contradictions- we need to build new houses / there is plenty of housing (Rayner).

If one of the top 6 things you can come up with that you are most outraged about is that you don’t like the way they speak then I’d say they’re probably doing a half decent job.

I disagree on the level of principle regarding the removal of the WFA so hastily but coming from the view of personal responsibility why didn’t they plan better for their retirement?

You keep asking what have they done wrong.

The budget was a disaster for business and unless changes are made jobs will be lost and business will retract not grow

If they want a second term, they at least trying to get people like me on side.

I attended a confernce which was addreesed by John Reid when he was health secretary (iirc). Whatever he was, he was a good speaker. Even though I disagreed with what he was saying and the underlying dogma, I felt a real level of commitment and inspiration coming from him such that I decided discretion was the better part of valour and decided not to challenge him.

I may of course have been wrong, given the following ( admittedly Wiki)

Most slippery" politician​

A study in early 2007 found that Reid is an evasive interviewee:

"Mr Reid failed to answer 44 per cent of questions put to him, compared to 42 per cent for Mr Blair... A team led by Prof Geoff Beattie, the resident psychologist on Channel 4's Big Brother, reviewed every political television interview by Britain's 10 highest-profile MPs over three weeks and analysed responses."[9]

It would be fascinating to see a post election study. They all seem reasonably good at answering questions they has hoped to be asked and had prepared for, rather than the questions actually asked. I think Blair referred to it as “pivoting”

What happened to the former contestants on TV's popular show 'Robot Wars'?

They turned their attention to hoodwinking idiot ministers into believing that a robot could solve the problem of potholes without requiring significant spending

The full title for the equipment for filling pot holes surely has to be ARRES Holes ( capitals the name in the article).

Sounds a bit crooked, allegedly. Keen on money, perhaps any ill gotten gains could be seized and used in a collectivist way.

I thought this rabble were supposed to be holier than the other lot. Id they are, it’s by a cigarette paper’s width.

If you’re keen on money and well connected politics is probably the worst possible career choice.

She’s not actually been proven to have done anything wrong yet. Not that that matters to those who blame the weather on Keir Starmer.
