Roth Child@harriettmb Given that Apprenticeships are employment with training, he's committing to creating 100,000 jobs that he has no power to create, the useless fuck.
@Geri is he going to give us another by-election?
@stevel Jeez, when 52% is some sort of supermajority for country destroying change but 82% is just taken as a note that you'll do what you wanna do via other routes, rather than via legislation, you know all you need to about what charlatans these clowns are.
@TriciaScott @peterjukes @thenewsagents I'm old enough to remember how #Sunak got his feet under the top table in the first place: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2020/feb/13/sajid-javid-resigns-as-chancellor-amid-boris-johnson-reshuffle so it's no real surprise that his puppet master is still pulling the strings.
One question always worth asking when #DominicCummings is involved is #WhereIsGove ?

The #Uxbridge #byelection result makes me somewhat nervous for all my #uk #BikeTooter buddies.That's twice in month now the #Tories have been handed election victories by folk so addicted to their #cars that they stop seeing the bigger picture, so expect a lot more pro-car (anti everything else) rhetoric in the coming months as they try to force a #CultureWar dividing line out of this.
Wow, people's addiction to their cars is so severe that they'll vote for crooks and criminals if they promise not to interfere with their use of them.
We are deeply fucked.
@nataliesedacca Free markets are for Banks, Water Co's and high carbon Petro-Chemical firms.
Everyone else gets lots of petty state meddling for the benefit of nobody but the politician doing the meddling.
@liverpoolrichard The trouble with late stage capitalism is eventually you run out of other people's assets to strip.
@olimould what I don't get with these pledges is that if we are credulous enough to believe they have the sills or powers to halve inflation, doesn't that imply thay also had the skill/power to prevent it getting where it is but chose not to? #RatsInASack #LifeInAFailedState
