Good luck to him. He’s going to need it!
Yes.Good luck to him. He’s going to need it!
we're going to need it. If he can get the ERG to play ball for two years he has the capability and the ideological beliefs to really fuck 90% of the UK populationGood luck to him. He’s going to need it!
He understands our problems, he and his wife are only worth £730 million.
EVERY question?And herein lies the problem with him, it's not that he'll be a bad PM, it's just every question he's asked will be about his wealth and his wife's tax status.
So a bloke with massive personal wealth, who was strongly pro-Brexit but later admitted that it's wrecking the economy, who ran up massive bills and devalued the pound during the pandemic is now presented as the man to take the country forward. God save the UK.Good luck to him. He’s going to need it!
he does however understand their problems (and by their I mean the ultra wealthy, the big corps and the chaos financiers) and he knows how to sell it to the Party, the Daily Heil and the Torygraph. Whatever gains Starmer theoretically might had made up against a barely house trained baboon and two short planks expect that to be thoroughly laid to waste.He understands our problems, he and his wife are only worth £730 million.

But Sunak is died in the wool, through and through anti-EU. Sunak has been pushing anti EU propaganda for nearly 30 years and he's still only 42.The ERG dislike him so he must have some decent qualities.
Anti NHS as well. Private health care US style here we come.But Sunak is died in the wool, through and through anti-EU. Sunak has been pushing anti EU propaganda for nearly 30 years and he's still only 42.
precisely, but i think that will take a back seat while he gets the various factions of his party on-side and more or less aligned. Privatised Justice system as well, at least partially he's mooted in the past when talking to RW groups in the statesAnti NHS as well. Private health care US style here we come.
Claims he'll implement the 2019 manifesto they were elected on. Missed the bit about selling off the NHS in it. Anyone else point me to the right paragraph?precisely, but i think that will take a back seat while he gets the various factions of his party on-side and more or less aligned.

Yes but it's odd how the ERG aren't a fanBut Sunak is died in the wool, through and through anti-EU. Sunak has been pushing anti EU propaganda for nearly 30 years and he's still only 42.
there isnt one -but Sunak has met several times with major US health care companies to "invest" in the UK. mostly to do with handing off old aged care at the moment. It will be a slow sell off, but mark my words with Sunak, if he gets a public mandate it will happen. Will probably aim it at younger professionals at first - co-paying agreements, or limiting NHS access over certain salary levels. the NHS will not be privatised it will just be starved of cash so that more and more people will just turn to private medicine. Ten fifteen years down the line the NHS is pretty much like medicare in the USClaims he'll implement the 2019 manifesto they were elected on. Missed the bit about selling off the NHS in it. Anyone else point me to the right paragraph?
I think it is because he's a pragmatist and knows that there has to be some form of negotiation with the EU. most of the ERG still believe in the fantasies of their brexit claims, or if they accept any level of pragmatism it undermines everything the ERG have been lobbying for. at the moment there is a major contingent of ERG in the cabinet some of them might be persuaded to get into line short term or just simply bribed into agreement. the real nut-jobs like JRM might then be levered out.Yes but it's odd how the ERG aren't a fan
of course it won't you couldn't do that, but over a ten - fifteen year period - 2 to three election cycles, run it down to the point where the national health service is simply urgent care for those with no resources.Every Tory since it's invention appears to have been selling off the NHS, yet still it's there as the largest employer in Europe (2015 figures) and the 5th largest non-militarised employer on the planet. Given the relative size of the populations we are taking about the US D.o.D employs 0.83% of the population, the People's Liberation Army 0.2% the NHS 2.5% of the population - it's true largest employer on the planet - staggering.
It's not going to happen, lots of other things might happen, but I will guarantee we will not have a medical system like the USA in the next two years.
I think there will be a windfall tax on energy suppliers, 1. they are mostly foreign, 2. it would go down well with the public and 3. reinforce his image of a sensible economics manager and 4 for the immediate future it means less government spending. Oil companies arent really based in the UK, and there is no way he's taxing the banking system.It’s quite simple Rishi, windfall tax on banks, energy and oil companies will solve the problem.
I’m available for a consultation fee of £1 million pounds
Depressing read that but I won't disagree with your synopsis, I think it's a great summary.there isnt one -but Sunak has met several times with major US health care companies to "invest" in the UK. mostly to do with handing off old aged care at the moment. It will be a slow sell off, but mark my words with Sunak, if he gets a public mandate it will happen.

if he cant get some form of agreement with the ERG and the Tufton lot i give him four months. the Tufton lot have been playing a three decade game, they can wait another two years. Reece Mogg is a cretin who everyone thinks is a joke, im pretty sure those at Tufton st. could get him into line.
Sunak is a natural ally of the tufton street goups general work.
In the nearly 75 years of the NHS; we've had about 25 years of Labour government and 50 years of Tory and it's still there, employing 2.5% of the population, being funded by the state to the tune of £135bn/year (12% GDP in 2021).of course it won't you couldn't do that, but over a ten - fifteen year period - 2 to three election cycles, run it down to the point where the national health service is simply urgent care for those with no resources.
No Blood of course not. He'll be asked about his Party tanking the economy, weakening the Pound, not dealing adequately with the energy companies, causing mortgage rates to explode, the in-fighting in his Parliamentary Party, the huge cuts about to take place in Government spending and, of course, the complete lack of any mandate for whatever he does.EVERY question?
It might be the biggest single employer, which is why many private health advocates want to get it off of government books. So far it’s been a vote killer, because almost all the public see the benefits of a public health system.In the nearly 75 years of the NHS; we've had about 25 years of Labour government and 50 years of Tory and it's still there, employing 2.5% of the population, being funded by the state to the tune of £135bn/year (12% GDP in 2021).
I get that is lucrative at the top end, and the private sector could probably turn a profit from it, but it's not going to happen. I don't even think we will change the universal approach to an insurance based scheme like they have in Germany and France.
I call him Richie.He understands our problems, he and his wife are only worth £730 million.
Nominally Christian. That's about it.The first non Christian Prime Minister in charge of a Christian country!
I'm intrigued who are the big hitters for cabinetFor the good of our economy, our people & our great but broken nation:
Rishi needs to pick the experienced, big hitters for his cabinet (unlike Truss who picked her mates).
His MP's need to unite as one behind him.
Good luck, you have one hell of a challenge ahead of you.
Larry” At least it’s another Tory PM so i will continue to get quality nosh. I hear those tight Labour gits shop at bloody Aldi!”

Surely you know that, without me naming individuals, which I not spending time doing? The most experienced MP's!I'm intrigued who are the big hitters for cabinet
The Labour Party grew out of the British industrial working class via the trades Union movement. You talk about their funding of the Party as if it's wrong. It isn't. I'm not trying to convince you btw, you're beyond redemption. I'm just stating it as a fact.Not whilst Labour are reliant upon the unions for their funding, that's for sure.
going to finish the job nowOh dear, PMQs will be like two Siri apps conversing with each other. The fuck nugget who bankrupted the country gets a promotion, what could go wrong?
As opposed to Russian oligarchs and offshore accounts in the Caymans.Not whilst Labour are reliant upon the unions for their funding, that's for sure.
I'm genuinely intrigued, raab, dorries, Davis, may, ids, surely the big hitters are talentedSurely you know that, without me naming individuals, which I not spending time doing? The most experienced MP's!
I'm not saying they're any good (not many MPs are) but we need experience & unity to improve the current situation.
