Starmer at PMQs today when Sunak said something about Labour leaving no money.....

'Debt doubled since 2010, growth down, tax up, the economy crashed. They’re going to need a bigger note'.

Covid, furlough and a continued indolence in some public sectors greatly exacerbated situation.

Are you counting Starmer's U turns on top-rate tax, nationalisation, tuition fees, freedom of movement etc? The guy is an empty vessel.
 
In my opinion, Brexit was a **** show, I never had any issue with being in the EU, didn't effect my life in any way, shape or form. But it's happened, I personally know many who regret their choice but we all have to live with it. Seems pretty pointless point scoring over this and that. Just crack on and deal with the hand we have been dealt.

All three main political parties agree with your conclusion, whatever their earlier stance. Still, there are some types who, like a bloke who bores people in the pub with how his wife left him for another man, just can't get over it...

Brexit has done enormous damage to the country. People who voted for it deserve to be reminded of their stupidity at every opportunity.

I blame the conmen rather than the conned. Those who still back it in some illogical hope it’ll come good and be worth the pain they know has happened and will happen over the next few years are just plain cultists now though.

You know the debt was well up before all of those events and that Sunak spaffed £11bn due to his own incompetence of not insuring against interest rate rises. The simpler Brexiteers here probably don’t.

The economy was struggling under Gordon Brown That was one of the reasons Labour was voted out of office.

11bn? No idea what you're on about. This a Socialist Worker theory?

Today I’ll be voting for my local independent candidate and the Liberal candidate.
When they came over canvassing, I did say that I am definitely not a Liberal and disagree with many Liberal policies, however if it can get rid of the current Tory shyster, it wouldn’t be a bad thing.
Unfortunately the TUSC candidate is standing in a neighbouring ward.
