Given the next government has not been elected yet you must have the wisdom of Nostradamus.

tbf, the last three have been shittier than their predecessors, so he’s assuming the Tories will win, and is probably basing it on that…;)

Apparently Farage was skulking around the Tory Conference. He wants a safe seat so he can make a bid for the UKIP, sorry, Tory Party Leadership when they lose the next GE.

Well, at the Reform Party Conference today, he apparently stated he wouldn’t be doing that (under the current leadership)…

The party plans to field 630 candidates across England, Scotland and Wales in the next general election.

It has ruled out standing aside to allow the Conservatives to gain more seats

Not really. Present government is shit. Labour is shit.

Which means we reach one logical conclusion.

Britain is shit.

Who is not shit?

Nige? Who has never delivered anything, except division, lies, and a resultant poorer nation.

Do tell.

You can do better than that, John.

Britain will carry on in spite of the shit.

We could beg to be the 51st US state but they won't take us, or even offer us an 'oven ready' trade deal. You were part of that daft decision, own it, and stop just blaming politicians for us being 'shit'.

I only accused the politicians of being shit. Not Britain, which will, through the efforts of business, deliver. The speed of delivery can be affected by the political shit, but business will win in the end.

Lets get back to the subject instead of this nonsense.

I see Paul's mod instruction - which I'm not ignoring and I've removed your first sentence solely for that reason to move on to take up your second point.

Business needs political leadership (either colour) to deliver on investment, on infrastructure, on developing skills within the workforce that the private sector simply won't do. Business can only lead a race to the bottom left to its own devices.

The outsourcing of public services demonstrates that.

The next Government needs to ignore the balancing the books language of austerity and drive medium and longer term growth with spending decisions now.

Or evading like B. Ecclestone who has been found guilty of it yet again, £400 million quids worth and not a day in prison time served despite his previous, compare that with the homeless shoplifter who is in prison for 22 weeks for nicking £2500 worth of goods, roughly a week for every 100 quid stolen, good job they didn't treat Bernie the same or he'd be in jail for the next 4 million years
