I bet Rishi is wetting himself. I would expect a motion of no confidence tabled very soon. I bet he's sunning himself on a beach in some tax haven with a smug little grin on his face. Rishi knew.

foxile5 Posted 26 September 2022 Share Posted 26 September 2022 I'm honestly worried about the future. These vultures of avarice will not stop feathering their own nests with no regard for the public. Is there any end in sight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it ultimately depends which “block” the LibDems would join. Right now you’d assume they’d side with Labour although they were closer to the Tories under David Cameron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try and overpay some chunks to get ahead of myself. All being well, if I stress test to about 5% interest (double my current rate) I should still be paying the same. I am never moving though. Too risky. Good choice. Having been on a tracker deal for a considerable time, now was the time to shift to a fixed myself. Truss and her cronies cannot be trusted and rather than watch her deliver financial oblivion to the majority and do nothing, I've at least acted to get some control back on what **** is likely to follow. Amazed at how easy it was considering some of the horror headlines coming out of mortgage deals swiftly being taken off the shelves as it were today. Still not totally happy with not being able to do too much about the energy prices but it is what it is. Also, that USA holiday will have to be put right on the back burner since the air fare is no longer the biggest expense it would seem. The cost of food and the like considering the current exchange rate makes it virtually impossible to obtain essentials at a reasonable price whilst out there. Looking at Disney for example, the cost of one portion of 8 nuggets and fries, no drink, is $16 ffs. It's ridiculous. Last time I was there, $1.97 to the £!!!

bovril Posted 26 September 2022 Share Posted 26 September 2022 I remember in my youth New Labour were always accused by right wingers of letting in immigrants and "turning Britain into a 3rd World country", which seems somewhat ironic now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as this government are useless, have the wrong priorities and have a decided stench of nepotism about them, I don’t see them as far right. Better to at least try to be on friendly terms with people. There are enough dangerous enemies in the world right now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't let up! Fingers crossed. Starmer needs to play this very carefully. If he can force a GE this year/before the coronation then we can annihilate these mother****ers for a generation at least. I think my favourite thing about that poll is that Corbynites were saying any other leader would be 20 points ahead... Well he's almost there you daft cults. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grth2004 Posted 26 September 2022 Share Posted 26 September 2022 The scariest thing is that we seem to be stuck with Truss now for 2 years no matter what. At least before there was hope that they would have a leadership contest but now she’s got 2 years to run the country into the ground and nothing we can do about it. I feel completely helpless whilst watching everything sink. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
