Tbf Boris did always make the point that they borrowed those votes in the red wall

For fucks sake, some frother referred to “the bloated public sector” - which bit is that then, education, health, social care, fire service, police, all of these?

True. That's one or 2 more than he borrowed though.
Labour's lead is now larger than their entire 2019 vote share.

Normally, that translates to "Anything I don't think I use"

“But would be loudly outraged if they subsequently needed it and it wasn’t available”

On the downside, this kind of majority will stop reform of FPTP completely.

education, health, social care, fire service, police
Five different services? Do we really need all five? Bloated, obviously

It is time for the Tory party, or, what remains of it to have its Militant moment.
All the supply side reform supporters, John Redwood, Marcus Fysh, Rees-Mogg, Steve Baker and the ERG fantasists need to be cut adrift. They cannot even bring themselves to describe their policies in simple terms:
Supply Side reform means much smaller Government,
meaning reduced funding for all essential services.All the Britannia Unchained authors need to be expelled from the Tory Party.
They had their chance with the Truss/Kwarteng administration and it failed in 38 days,
(fewer, effectively due to the period of Royal mourning).The 5th/6th largest economy with a population of 65 million cannot be run as a jumbo-sized Singapore, especially after it has implemented the most severe barriers to free trade with its closest geographical markets ever seen.

True but still astonishing that such a high proportion look at the state of the nation and think “the Tories values speak to me, we need to continue with their steady hand on the tiller”

Still, I can’t win over my own family so it’s on me

the most severe barriers to free trade with its closest geographical markets ever seen
come off it!

Reeves mentioned non-doms. So prepare for weeks of increasingly ridiculous headlines and attacks from the usual suspects…
