@CathyMo41926708 @Conservatives No, Reform UK promised to reduce council tax, which was ‘pie in the sky’
Made promises that they couldn’t keep just to get votes!

I admire Priti Patel’s honesty.

She refuses to apologise for exploding the population at unprecedented speed.

Why would she? No matter who their leader, the Tories are the party of open borders and the devastation of Britain.

[Tim Montgomerie 🇬🇧 @montie]

The capitulation of the Government to junior doctors and train drivers (amongst others) will bring short-term gain and long-term pain - especially for taxpayers. Every trade union now knows Labour is weak, weak, weak when it comes to negotiating pay.
