You’re as bad as Scotch Egg, Mr Pontificator
Says someone who goes on Radox and says we will definitely make the playoffs but lose to Bolton
And who also says the election will be close
Why does your opinion carry more weight

If Britain is copying Oz (which seems to be the playbook at the moment), then Labour will promise to maintain whatever bonkers neoliberal tax traps are brought in by the tories - to avoid controversy amongst swing voters - but will then start tossing things out when the actual time comes - on the basis that it’s better to be right and accused of flip flopping than to stick to commitments that are harmful for the electorate.

Matter of opinion.
From a Western/humanitarian view - No he`s not.
From an Israeli view - Yes he is.
From a Hamas view - No he`s not. They need to regroup and carry on.
Likewise he wouldn`t have been wrong after 1 month, 2 months or more.............. amazing how he comes out with this after a lot of voters decide to vote elsewhere.
Like many (all?) politicians its all about the wind direction.

Largely agreed, this government has made so many u-turns, sometimes they don't know whether they are coming or going but sometimes you can also admit you were wrong. I'm sure I saw Pat McFadden interviewed after the elections last week and acknowledge the need for a rethink.
Actually, I've been looking out for you or Potters Right Boot to point how everything went to plan for the Tories last week. My favourite moment was Sunak loitering around in Catterick in the hope that Houchen was re-elected and then rushing up to congratulate a man who distanced himself from central government and actually had Johnson endorse him a few days before the election.
I am sure Labour would be demanding the same if it was the other way around.
But this is now done as far as the Police are concerned, so time to move on.
If HMRC subsequently find that there is an unpaid tax liability, I am sure it will rare up again. But the election will be well behind us by then I expect.
Agreed that Labour would be doing the same in reverse.
Iirc, HMRC have already said there is no unpaid tax liability.
