He may have fecked the economy. Economists were saying the UK was in big trouble way before the pandemic and Brexit hits. They (and now Ukraine) provided a useful shield to hide Government ineptness. However, Rishi's own personal economic policies have reaped huge tax efficiency benefits for his wife, thereby depriving the UK economy of substantial monies.

Good for her. There is a difference between being an ethical, honourable, honest politician or just following any type of junior managerial standard rather than being on the terraces. It is not English culture and it has eroded too far for me. The guy is from the shallow end of the gene pool but Jacob Rees-Moog would never be so uncouth.

I hope the incoming PM has a more sensible attitude toward the 'green' levy cost on British households, considering that the UK is only responsible for around 1 percent of carbon emissions. [Tweet Link]

More data on the candidates. [Tweet Link]
It's not great from my perspective but policy wise I'm edging towards Braverman out of this lot. There are whispers Mogg could run....it could just be gossip, but then again the last few years have seen him outed as a bit 'wet'.
