Even tnough it was a small share of the vote, Tony Blair was able to win a General Election after Iraq by coming across as reasonably sincere in how he thought it was the best thing etc, and it did catch a bounce of sorts. You'll get a small rump who'll vote for whatever party no matter what they say (Death to Your Relatives! Yay!!) and a larger rump who want to be convinced, and will take relatively little.
Then there's the other part who see the lesser of evils. Now that, of course, is where a nice solid former Director of Public Prosecutions probably plays better than a lefty with a conscience but an eually idealised view of economics as the current lot, if from a vastly different perspective. Things are relative too. If they improve from here, then they can point to pain for gain, and some will accept that.
Again, this is Liz Truss(!) so the chances of her pulling it off are slim to none. She's currently managed the rare achievement of being even worse than I expected, after all(!) but, either an upturn, or a change of leader, and things become very different yet again.
Of course from my biased perspective, I'm fervantly hoping that this trashes the Tory reputation for being capable guardians of the economy for a generation. Hopefully we get the chance to change things before I lose my job...
Just one point he was incumbent as a "previously elected PM".
Don't know if that changes anything but personally it would with me.
Edit:- it hasn't transpired yet and if they get away with delaying it the war was voted for this not as yet.
And it isn't over yet as Kwerti is still adding to it.
Has there been any word yet on how much the Queen’s funeral cost the taxpayer and how much the Royal Family contributed?
Are they waiving any tax on this indivial or did forget mentioning the partner on the same salary?
You don’t count cash at that level, you weigh it. Do you even drug cartel bro? And obviously a gym bag is the correct vessel for that amount of money.
just seen this Pete, not very well publicised as I haven't heard much mention about it till now.
Celebrities to join thousands taking part in cost of living protests across the UK
A number of celebrities will be among the thousands taking part in cost of living protests across the country tomorrow.
Campaign group Enough is Enough is holding a national day of action, with events in more than 50 cities, towns and villages across the country.
Just googled enough is enough.
Clicked on 'Events'
It doesn't even mention Oct 1st.
Oct 1st has it's own tab, but my inclination was to head for 'Events'
Poorly laid out website
I've never understood why it's even used at all as the only thing it can possibly do is mislead and lead people into pending more on fuel than they normally would because they think they're covered above £2.5k.
It can only be with the intention of being misleading.
If it's the rate is capped, hen say the rate is capped. Don't go saying people won't pay more than £2.5k when that's blatantly untrue.

Mini-Budget. Major Catastrophe.
How much have Truss and Kwarteng cost the country so far?

Kinnock was about 2 or 3 points ahead in the polls going into the 1992 election
Miliband was behind in most polls
Neither went into an election massively in front

This is all quite deliberate, if not from that pair then from the people pulling their strings
Careful, you’ll be getting accused of being paranoid. By believing your own eyes.
Could you imagine if that was the Commumist Party or someone equally fringe on the other side? Just mindblowing.
He says we're pandering to the 0.1%.
He's going to be so shocked when he hears what we've been doing economically for God knows how long.
Thing is she's so dense I honestly don't know whether she's lying or genuinely believes that they're capped at £2.5k because she doesn't understand the measure in place.
To be fair the fact it's bizarrely called a cap I'm not surprised that many people don't understand it.
The PM has no excuse though. She's deliberately misleading people, dangerously so. (or she really is that thick)
