  1. Just fix one problem in the interests of the British people. Any problem. Rather than working in the interests of international technocracy in one shape or another.

  2. The logical consequence is that if Rishi Sunak cannot fix all our problems then he should be honest and set out the trade-offs of any decision rather than pretend that all will be well. It would change political debate radically if the trade-offs were included in answers in the PM Questions – and as a beneficial side effect arbitrary gainsayings from the Opposition would be exposed as posturing if they failed to engage.

    Probably unlikely to happen as politicians have become conditioned to producing short term sound bites.

  3. Except in this, as in most things, Rishi is wrong.

    The government can solve your problems… (Or at least mitigate them)…
    By butting out of our lives and leaving us alone, which would stop making so many problems for many of us.

    Don’t get me started.
    My income only went back up to pre-Covid levels a few months ago. 40% drop in income for 2 years? Thanks politicos. Was a miracle we managed without being turfed out by the bank. Was a lean couple of years.
    And it was all down to the government.

    • Absolutely, pretty much all of our problems have been caused by the government. The best way that they could help would be by not helping.

  4. One day they may actually elect a Conservative leader. Not had one for many years.
    Pro-business, low taxes, strong on law and order, cut immigration dramatically, cut out the climate change nonsense, smaller government would be a start.

    • There will need to be a huge turnover of MPs first; Truss was (as far as one can tell) a little to the right of Sunak, and nobody would work with her in government. For that turnover to happen, local Conservative Associations would need to toss out the sitting MPs and select actual conservatives as candidates for the next General Election.

      Can’t see it, myself.

  5. It’s easy to say stuff like “we’re all in this together” and “I understand your problems” when your wife is worth £735m
