Agreed.

She inherits a 70+ majority from Johnson so not the end of the world in the short-term but the 2025 election and a potential recession loom large.

Immediate question is her generosity to business and consumers for fuel support. If she adopts the LibDem suggestion of freezing the cap at today's prices I would expect her popularity to rise significantly.

As would government borrowing.
