Sunak's five pledges:- Inflation - still over 10%. Economic growth - not going to happen. National Debt - don't be ridiculous. NHS waiting lists - not even remotely possible. Illegal migration - not before the election. All 'dead in the water'. Try those Sir Keir. Starmer should concentrate on issues where he doesn't have a history of hypocrisy and simple lying, like the Sunak rapist attack ad. Problem is finding these issues
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

Can a resident please enlighten me as to what the hell happened Edited by Spiderman (17 Apr 2023 7.48am) Having lost so much central funding, a mixture of arrogance and desperation resulted in the council investing massively in real estate. At a very bad time. Apparently brick to brick flats are well regarded but not only were the investments too risky, the finances were poorly managed. Oh and by the was, the planning department was full of people taking massive backhanders. Allegedly.

They would have done better buying houses and renting them out. At least it’s a bit of a portfolio that’s useful long term.
