Although we might have different perspectives, you're right. I support the Tories (being a member - still); Labour & Lib-Dems are too leftie for me; Reform have the right ideas but there is little confidence of delivery; the Tories have a lot to prove and will find it very difficult.

For the country, schmitt & creek hardly touch the sides.

And despite all of this, we're still the best growing in the G7. Are we in danger of talking down our country?

Fair point. I've said in the past that Business takes care of such matters as growth. Business will do what it takes to saty in buisiness.

But unemployment is part of the equation, being one of the business checks/balances to maintain so-called growth.

The recently elected leader of Warwickshire County Council has resigned, leaving his 18-year-old deputy in charge.

Reform UK councillor Rob Howard released a short statement in which he said he had made the decision with "much regret".

Howard was elected in May, when Reform made unprecedented gains in the local elections, becoming the largest party in Warwickshire and forming a minority administration.

The outgoing leader cited his health as the reason for his decision, adding: "The role of leader is an extremely demanding role and regretfully my health challenges now prevent me from carrying out the role to the level and standard that I would wish."

He also confirmed that his current deputy, George Finch, would serve as interim leader until the council confirmed a new leader in due course.

Also, Rob Howard doesn’t seem to be much of a planner….

The new leader was on holiday when he was appointed, prompting members of the Green Party on the council to label him the "absent leader" during the full council meeting where he was voted in.

Howard said he would "accept the criticism" but added: "I think a lot of people think I just deliberately booked the holiday just so I could keep out the limelight, but no. "It was a holiday I booked before Christmas, which, at the time, I didn't know the significance of the dates in May."

Howard also said he had been assured by council officers that the authority could operate without him being present and that he had actually ended up spending about half his time on holiday dealing with council business.

I wonder what the real scandal behind this is.
