It's corruption, plain and simple. 'Cronyism' is too nice a word for what these absolute clowns are doing to our country.
That a third of people would still vote for them beggars belief. |  |

Ridiculous that the people in government making these decisions to throw money around like confetti are the same ones who have spent much of the last decade preaching financial prudency and the need for public spending to be cut. |  |

So if we look at the first line then given their contracts are entirely testing which didn't exist pre-covid and their profits have increased from 1m to 180m they could have charged 50% less for testing and still made an absolutely massive ~90m profit.
It's profiteering combined with corruption.
Even worse, it's profiteering off the back of a pandemic which has cost more than a hundred thousand lives.

If you spend as much time on social media as a lot of you folk, you are bound to have a different view of what goes on.
In our real world if there was a general election tomorrow it is perfectly understandable why a third of people would still vote for 'them'.
Hopefully (and yes believe what you wish), this will change over the next couple of years. To win voters back though, there needs to be more respect for why they left, less criticism of the opponents with more time spent on policies and objectives and finally of course bringing all factions of the party together.
Lecture, abuse, criticise us who deserted labour all you like, it will not wash with voters until the above criteria is met. | | | |

So your decency doesn’t extend beyond “don’t point out my faults, mistakes or gullibility”? The fact you keep making out that lecturing, abuse etc is some sort of “lefty” trait is very telling, you never condemn anything or anyone else it seems except people outraged by corruption, racism, homophobia from the cloak of manners.
Like Rees-Mogg you might think this shields you from criticism, but in fact it shows up how hollow supporting this sort of stuff makes you. | |

Indeed.

I don't have a problem with people voting for them per se, it's just that without any form of meaningful legal accountability, there are so many of the pigs free to roam the streets looking for the next exploitable trough that an unfortunately large number are bound to stand for and be elected by what passes for our democratic system. |  |

Yes, clearly it's everyone else's fault you voted for a party led by a racist and homophobe, who has moulded a party in his own image with all the moral fibre of a soggy digestive biscuit. Take some responsibility and stop pointing at everyone else to try and ease your conscience. Nobody made you vote for the worst government and worst PM we've ever had, you did so willingly. |  |

Doesn't Johnson's government currently have three unelected ministers? Morgan, Goldsmith, and Frost I think. Not sure if there are others. | |

I’m convinced Morgan was given a peerage purely in exchange for having to do the ridiculous “50 thousand more nurses” routine on GMB during the last election. | |

You're struggling with your double standards by the looks of it. If you want more respect for the voters (or anyone in the UK except their funders), less criticism of any opposition, more time spent on policies, and less division, you really don't want to be batting for Johnson's government. | |

"with more time spent on policies"
Labours manifesto had the most policies in that anyone has ever seen yet you've criticised the time spent on policies and used it as a reason why you voted Tory.
Rather than calling out others, I think it might be you who is rather confused here.

The truth is Government is won by popular slogans more than by policies. This Government's "Get Brexit done" was highly successful. What they will come up with to capture the vote from those who see what they have done time will tell but you can be sure they will be working hard on it. Hopefully it will be more akin to "strong and stable".
Labour should be looking at something like "using taxpayer money to benefit all not Tory party donors and MPs"! It needs to be more catchy, though. Maybe "NHS and education" like the old "education, education, education". |  |

it's an utterly deluded post. I genuinely can't think of a government that's had less respect for the population, has done more to smear or gaslight opponents, spends less time addressing needed policies, and is less divided (the most harmful own political decision in many generations, Brexit, is all a consequence of party division after all).
It's absolute fanboy bollox. | |
