I don’t recall what happens after the vote being described, promised or explained on the ballot.

			You’re right - just like every other election, what happens after the vote isn’t described, promised or explained on the ballot - probably because the only things on there are the candidates and their Parties’ names, and a box to make one’s mark…

The party tells you what it will do if elected.
 
In the referendum there was no Manifesto given by political parties about what they would do or how they would it.
 
There were remain and leave campaigns that both said lots of things, but neither were in power, or had within their gift to say how they would shape the country after the referendum.
 
It was ten years ago, you know.

			Far higher than many countries, but a small bit of good news for Labour.

		| Inflation sticks at 3.8% 
 Inflation remained the same in September at 3.8%, the latest Office for National Statistics figures show.
 
 While the figure is still relatively high, it's lower than expected.
 
 Economists had widely predicted that it would reach a peak of 4% in September before starting to fall.

			What's our coward leader doing apart from handing the responsibility to the relevant authority? Is that all a leader does, delegate power ?
