Given that they just had to let a load of people out of prison early because there was no space, I don't think the Judge Jeffreys act is going to cut it.

Maybe they’re rolling out the death penalty restoration before Farage gets that one in.

‘D-day was the final straw’: Sunak’s blunders ignite Tory party fury

The spads and clown advisers who are making these decisions will never work on so much as a Tory councillor’s campaign again in their lifetime,” said one irate Conservative source.

Sunak’s team are the Ed Wood of political campaigning. Pink Floyd would have fired them 50 years ago for producing that for promoting Animals.

It's Brant the living cartoonist!

There’s no ambiguity in Brant’s satirical hilarity. Who’s the piggy bank, Labour? Aren’t piggy banks safe and reassuring? They certainly don’t blow up roads, what’s that all about? What savings? you Tory bastards.

A useful thread from April on Sunak's weaknesses

[Yug]

Two things people are moaning about:

Underfunded NHS
State pension age rise

Sunak's answer? Knock another 2p off National Insurance

The Conservatives are launching their election manifesto later, with a promise to cut a further 2p from National Insurance if re-elected.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak claimed the Tories were the party of "sound money", and that another Tory government would help working people "keep more of the money you earn".

He said Labour would instead do "what socialists always do - take more of your money".

Labour have described the Tories’ ideas as "the most expensive panic attack in history"...

That'll really help with the underfunding.

Sunak the international statesman describes China as our enemy in a pep up speech to the faithful. Part of an axis of evil with Russia, Iran and North Korea. Now the foreign office is going to have clear up this shit with Bejing. A reckless and amateur halfwit.

Tories were banging on about mysterious money wasting quangos nearly 50 years ago. And yet it was a new right hobby horse in the 80s to proliferate them under the guise of contracting out dead hand big government responsibilities to nimble private agencies. A Blairite thing as well.

John Crace sat through Rishi’s launch speech

First manifesto launch I have been to where the leader has given a demotivational speech.

Sunak did a fair bit of disassembling as well. Liam Byrne’s note put in an appearance, everything was shit under Labour, don’t let them ruin it. Woeful.

I remember a lot of Tory matrons, the likes of Lady Howe and Lady Hurd and so on, had posts on their boards, like modern day Lady Birlings.

Seem to recall up and coming satirist Ian Hislop mocking this practice and Tory ministers getting outraged at this young lefty attacking their wives as they weren’t politicians.
Think Hislop’s spot was on a show presented by radical alternative comic Jasper Carrot.

Didn't realise they were a political issue that far back.

As with everything else, we're made to wonder why they didn't make these savings before. It's not like they didn't go big on quango consolidation before.

Per the Institute of Government, 80% of spending through quangos is done by just three of them- NHS England, Education and Skills Agency and HMRC. These aren't obvious targets for cuts.
