@DeclanJMKelly @SamCoatesSky I think you'll find that there are a lot of ex-Conservative voters currently voting Lib Dem too who may go back to the Tories in a GE.

The defence row exposes Labour’s fiscal dilemma.

Rachel Reeves is simply doing her job. John Healey resigned honourably.

The buck stops with the Prime Minister. Before he goes, he should abandon Labour’s tax pledge and face hard choices on welfare and pensions.

@timwig It's underestimated how many runs scored and average batting in the top 3.

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@RupertMyers Not even close

@talkMacca @balders2 Meanwhile Old Trafford and Headingley won't be getting an Ashes Test.

@HCH_Hill Impossible to say. Clearer mandate from election, better political antenna, better party management, better leadership & clearer purpose even allowing for coalition dynamics. 2010-16 was more stable than 2016-2026. Granted Brexit, COVID & Geopolitics a harder back drop to govern.

@lewis_goodall We have a female Home Sec, Foreign Sec and Chancellor and the two candidates to replace Keir Starmer are two blokes. Go figure.

@KevinAl1976 Rishi Sunak is genuinely very knowledgeable on AI and was out the gate on this a long while back.

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@ShippersUnbound @simonmontefiore Agree on all those. Can we also add two hugely impactful elements. 1) increases in things like CGT send messages we aren't open to inward investment and entrepreneurship whilst raising nothing 2) we need to fix social care which will involve more spending for an aging society

@v_j_freeman Not picked up on yet but we also have 3 of the big four jobs being done by women and none being backed. The two pushy contenders to replace a white male are.... white males

@afneil Don't even think Boris had senior minister creds. At least May past that test. Sunak had great potential but it came to early in his political career and too late in Tory period. Cameron, Brown, Major and Blair made big mistakes but were credible PMs.

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@ricardoevano @JacquesMaree73 @CharlesRTel @bencoles_ Agree on scarcity

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@ricardoevano @JacquesMaree73 @CharlesRTel @bencoles_ Of course. But they've also beaten the All Blacks and South Africa in the last couple of years. Of course Lions massive favourites. But I think dismissing as 3-0 is ridiculous.

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@ricardoevano @JacquesMaree73 @CharlesRTel @bencoles_ Pumas were missing a lot of players too and literally beat the Lions in Dublin

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@nige_h64 @SaleSharksRugby Younger than Harrison, Taylor, Thomas?

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@JacquesMaree73 @CharlesRTel @bencoles_ Not so sure. 3 Tests vs. Pumas playing in front of 90k in Buenos Aires.

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@FoyChris Lions to Americas with 3 Tests vs. Pumas would be ground breaking.

[James Madeley @JamesMadeley]

@RupertMyers I mean the Tories period can't be put into a 14 year continuous experience. Effectively 2010-17 and then 2017-24 were two distinct halves. J
