I think it's a touch different to buying up company bonds. This is more like we as a country needed money so we borrowed it off others. We are now buying our own debt back and ummmm owe it to ourselves And how do we buy debt without borrowing more to buy those gilts back? |  |

Starmer is trying to get them to recall parliament to do just that. Of course the Tories will hide away, like they have for the last 2 days. |  | |  |

The irony would be delicious if it wasn't so sad. |
He's just got the vote of confidence from the board. How long do we give it? 48 hours? |  | |  |

Agreed. It's all well and good arguing "well you don't elect a prime minister, you elect an MP" blah blah blah, but when changing the leader of the governing party can cause this level of craziness it really should trigger a general election. |  |

“ A spokesman said: "The PM and the Chancellor are working on the supply side reforms needed to grow the economy which will be announced in the coming weeks".” What a terrifying comment - haven’t they done enough damage. It’s like letting a drink driver who’s just crashed, back into his car to carry on driving. |  | |  |

Have heard that a significant amount of members have already binned off the party conference and a number of no confidence letters have been sent to Brady - as has been widely reported. Not that I think this changes much. I don't really see a way out sadly and fear we're just stuck with another 2 years of misery unless people take to the streets poll tax style to force a GE. |  | |  |

I can’t see Truss and Kwasi lasting two years. The Tory MPs will start to panic at the thought of losing their seats. The benefits of this push for growth , even if by some miracle it started to work would not be visible for some time. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads
