Penny sat in the cabinet that delivered the mini-budget and ensuing chaos.
Rishi left office having delivered 10% inflation, the highest tax rates and borrowing ever.
Johnson is a liar who is totally unfit for office.
Time to press the reset button. #GeneralElectionN0W

@marcussigismund Hello Marcus sadly not that I know of. I don’t want Anne to disappear but she’s good at sitting tight and waiting. Here’s one of the pollards that were the inspiration for her instead. Hope you like it. Not sure how to attach it so I’ll post it separately
