Re: Updated: Boris resigns as party leader

Who would have thought that when we need 40,000 nurses, 50,000 doctors, 6,000 police officers, 100,000 care workers etc that the best way to recruit them would be to cut the salary? Only the caring conservatives think that much of 'hard working people'. They really should be ashamed that one of the 'best' 2 candidates for the top job suggested it and that nobody saw there'd be a backlash. Wow, just wow.

We all know that shopping is cheaper in some areas than others, so it makes sense that wages reflect that.

In other words, she listened to the reaction and decided to heed what people were saying. That’s good, isn’t it?

Well, exactly. It is far more expensive to live and work in London.
Why don't we build a big wall round the poorer areas while we're at it, you know to keep the riffraff in?
