      @coochieman7887 yes some have very short memories on how bad they are with their lots of promises but lack of delivery.
      Inflation was rampant in the 70’s thanks to them and we had the winter of discontent.
      Fast forward and we have the same crap involving houses which they created a ridiculously overpriced market making virtually impossible for millions to buy a home thanks to their lax rules and easy borrowing.
      Anyone thinking life will get better once they’re in will find it’s the usual breadcrumbs for the workers as they continue to erode the standards of living for those voters.
      My mother is in her 80’s so has witnessed the little they have done for their loyal followers, she also says they haven’t really been Labour in the true sense since not long after the party’s inception.
      Having lived through both party’s in charge I can confidently say that neither have the public or country’s interest at heart and are complete dross.

    Torys and Labour are the same thing. There may be a small period of an economic bounce when Labour first get in, but it won't last long. The public still hate the tories so much, I'd expect 2 terms under Labour before the torys win back. And the cycle continues.

  • @28pbtkh23

    Rishi Sunak has called the election far too early. many people still think that the UK economy is still in recession, even though it is now growing strongly. Most folk haven't felt any of the good effects from the upturn in the economy. They might feel the positive effects come the autumn, but Sunak has blown any chance of that by calling for a summer election. I think that this shows that his expensive education at Winchester School was a waste of money.

  • @alex_zetsu
    @alex_zetsu Місяць тому +1

    I'm curious as to why Sunak didn't wait until Autum. Before the Brexit (courtesy of David Cameron and Boris Johnson) and Truss (courtesy of herself), the Tories were known for being inflation hawks and good economic stewards. The economy is expected to be better this year, but it won't be until autumn that the data can be collected. If he waited that long, he could then try to sell "hey we're competent again." It's probably not going to work, but it seems better than the alternative.
