    And will make no difference to crime statistics, whereas investing that money in communities would pay dividends for generations.
    But Tories gotta Tory...

  2. FFS, the #Tories are determined to have Truss 2.0 by giving members two totally unfit leadership candidates.

    They have learned NOTHING!!

  3. @PoliceStateUK
    Oh, Zahawi is well aware it was a bad idea. But progression in government requires he go along.

    The real shame is that the #Tories had so few ministers willing to resign on principle.

  4. Totally on brand for the #Tories that Robert Jenrick gets the most votes for leader on the day the Grenfell Report is released.

  5. So, asylum spending is 20x the budget ... And has been for years. Seems #Tories have lived in utter denial.

    And to waste so much on the cruel Rwanda scheme while so underfunded. That's should be criminal neglect.

  7. The heartless 2 child benefit cap was introduced by heartless Tories in 2017. End #ChildPoverty Coalition research shows that removing the cap will lift 250K children out of poverty. This is #LibDem policy. Tories are callous, infested with greed. #ToryLiars #SunakOut #rejoinEU #ToriesUnfitToGovern

    #Tories are actively trying to break things on their way out the door.

    Did you see how the gov sacked trade negotiators ...days before calling the election?

    Edit: corrected to say decision made before, not after, calling election.

  10. These Tories infested with #greed. #Zahawi pays nearly £5Million 2 HMRC after tax 'mistake'. His original declarations 2 HMRC were a 'mistake'. I'll bet they were, he didn't make a mistake the other way did he?? rb.gy/tp6w0b #ToryLiars #ToryGreed #ToriesUnfitToGovern #StandwithUkraine

  14. Next time you hear a #Tory talk about tax cuts, remember that their tax threshold freeze has:
    - dragged 4.4 million low earners into tax
    - dragged 26% more low earning pensioners into tax

    ...all in three years!

    #ToriesPlunder for the rich, and screw over the working class. Shame!

  15. Is anyone surprised by #Tory corruption anymore?

    This is the party that lied about Brexit to the benefit of their donors who bet against Sterling.

    The party that created fast lane, no bid PPE deals for their mates.

    The party that tanked the economy again by insisting on unfunded tax cuts to benefit their Tufton Street donors.

    OF COURSE they will bet on the election date based on insider knowledge

  16. Tory MP and private secretary admits the #Rwanda scheme is "crap" driven by wishful thinking.

    If naval ships in the channel didn't stop boats, why would Rwanda deportations?

  17. Of course, Corbyn would have been a better PM than Johnson. Johnson was a disaster whose unplaying of Covid caused tens of thousands to die; whose hard #Brexit decimated trade and growth and whose #Partygate excesses destroyed credibility. Food banks, homelessness and the state of the #NHS were all made much worse by Johnson.

    As they say, elect a clown, get a circus. #ToriesUnfitToGovern

  19. @ShredderLivesOn
    And not quite two years since Boris Johnson was forced from the party leader role - after a year's dithering by the party where his numerous #Partygate offences were an open secret.

    He was unfit for the role, unfit in the role and unfit since leaving the role. Yet they love him.

    #ToriesUnfitToGovern

  20. Simplified - Where are taxpayers ripped off

    Benefit waste <1% #Tory #Covid plunder. So, why all the talk about benefit scroungers when the Covid fraud was written off as too hard to collect?

  21. Just watched a disgusting Tory election #broadcast. Despite being told by the #Treasury that the 2K tax claim is total rubbish & a lie, & that their claims re its production were false, these Tory #liars continue with the fiction. They are despicable, #ToryLiars #SunakTheLiar #ToryCorruption #ToriesUnfitToGovern

  22. A study reported in the Guardian has concluded that the dismal weather over the past year is 10 times more likely thanks to global heating, and we're heading for one year in three following that pattern. To quote the end of the article:

    Dr Friederike Otto, a climate scientist at Imperial College London and co-founder of WWA, said: “To put it bluntly, climate change is already making life shittier. Wetter winters are flooding farms, cancelling football matches, overflowing sewage systems and [making] groceries more expensive.

    “Thankfully, we know the solutions. Replace oil, gas and coal with cleaner, cheaper renewable sources of energy; insulate homes, and restore nature. All this will make life cheaper and better for all, not more expensive.”

    So why isn't our government doing anything, given that all the experts say that it's essential and will save us money (and possibly our very existence)? Too many vested interests in oil and gas, I fear.

  23. @junesim63 first universities are (ridiculously) transformed into 'businesses', propped up in large part by the exorbitant fees charged to international students. (Don't get me started on the change in student attitudes as the fees increased, but that's a whole other topic.)

    Then the idiots in charge decide to change the business model without consultation or alternatives.

    'Tories REALLY don't know what the hell they're doing!

  24. This is painful to watch.

    Hearing the 'Tory representative whine on about how much money has been provided is immaterial.

    However much it may be, if it's not enough, then it's not enough!

    If citizens aren't healthy and supported then the country can't thrive. It's as simple as that.

    It's all about choices. And they've chosen to siphon off £££s to cronies rather than invest in the population and necessary infrastructure.

  25. Under #RishiSunak, the UK has been through an #EnergyCrisis , a #CostOfLivingCrisis and now a #MortgageCrisis

    But the policy he is driving hardest, keeping Parliament "as long as it takes", is the xenophobic #Rwanda policy.

    Tell me, how does deporting a few refugees to Rwanda help anyone in the UK? Madness, spiteful madness

  26. What would happen if the junior doctors and consultants went on an indefinite strike, until the government enter into meaningful discussions? The same with ASLEF and the RMT - why not go on an all-out indefinite strike? These disputes need to be resolved, and it seems to me the corrupt, incompetent morally bankrupt Tories are not going to respond to anything less.

    3 million UK homes can’t afford heat + 10% of A&E patients waiting 12 hours or more for a bed + wide-scale public sector strikes over below-inflation wages. 
WTF is the Tory government doing? Certainly not governing to help citizens.
