A Political Thread pt. 2

Truss's first bloody stupid move removing anyone associated with Sunak. He had a larger supporting parliamentary base (38.3 v 31.6). And still took 42.6 of the membership vote (which was higher tan predicted).

When you have a polling problem that's not a group to make enemies with out the gate.

Ok, I flattered you
Are you a reservist,by the way?

Not anymore. British soldiers are only required to stay as reservists for a short period after leaving regular service.

My dad always told me about Winter of discontent in the 1970s. Well, welcome to our generation's one coming up. Hope Truss has a bloody good plan up her sleeve.

She answers questions better than Johnson but it turns into white noise within seconds due to her tone.

What is the energy price cap and how much are gas and electricity bills going up?

Typical gas and electricity prices are rising by 10% in England, Scotland and Wales on 1 October.

So bills capped, but the British people will pay for it later either in increased taxes or cuts to services to lower debt.
It's also blanket for all so the wealthy benefit just as much as the poor.
There is also no new support for those on lower incomes as far as I can see, so those already struggling or those who will need to use more electricity such as pensioners will be worse off.

Yay!
