Because you were in face to face discussions with people who knew you, you knew them and you all therefore had an idea of what each other’s personality was, truthfulness and importantly through social connection had a vested interest in maintaining your credibility. I too remember such conversations, most people spoke honestly but there were also a small few who would exaggerate, make claims and statements that could not possibly be true. Others in the conversation could see this because they had firsthand knowledge of the person, and of course responded accordingly, often very bluntly. You are making a false equivalence, this is not a face to face conversation between people who know each other.

Labour are not the topic of discussion. This is a Tory mess. Let’s stick with that reality.

So 10,000 EU citizens leave the NHS to return home as a direct result of Brexit. Where 10,000 EU citizens leaving the NHS per year? Of course not. Like the idiot budget sending the economy into crisis, the cause and effect is plain, just some wish to stick their head in the sand and deny reality.

I don’t accept any claimed personal experiences that pop up in internet discussions in a timely manner to support the previously expressed views of the person suddenly remembering their experiences, especially the details of what would have to be complex personal circumstances related in past discussions. I file them under, unsubstantiated.

The NHS lost over 10,000 Doctors, nurses and other health professionals who returned to Europe as a direct result of Brexit. Are you claiming these people couldn’t meet the post Brexit criteria to stay? Perhaps you can fortuitously recall a discussion with one of them to help your case.

Has it occurred to you racism might exist on a spectrum from holding some racist views to being an outright raging racist?

Who added the word ‘Nazis’?

She appointed Kwarteng because they both intimately share an attachment to an extreme rightwing economic dogma. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britannia_Unchained

No he’s behaving like a supporter of this Government, nothing to do with the ‘left’. Otherwise you are correct.

You don’t have to, Labour didn’t cause this mess and they are not the subject of the discussion (chiefly because they didn’t cause this mess).

Corbyn is not the subject of this discussion, nor is any ‘choice’ you imagine I might have made.

Imagining what else might cause the problems that this Government has caused isn’t going to get this Government and supporters of this Government off the hook. You are only offering imagined scenarios as whataboutary. And once again, Labour are not the subject of this discussion.

Oddly, the BOE and major banks were all predicting an 18 month recession, and that was before Kwarteng opened his mouth and let the idiocy out. Mind, if it’s ‘Growth, Growth, Growth’ Tess is. Promising by time of the next election (2.5% to be precise), she could try something that would absolutely produce growth. Join a free trade group with the UK’s largest trading partners, who just happen to be geographically next door.

Deliberate actions are only a mistake after they are ‘found out by others’ or ‘exposed as the kind of idiocy that the Kamikaze Budget patently was’. Your fixation on Labour is once again noted, but Labour are not, try as you may, the subject of this discussion.

I can’t help thinking, Johnson must be loving this.

The Tory Party has been riven with division for over a decade. Cameron only offered the Brexit Vote in order to try to prevent the Tory Party splitting up, all it achieved was damage to the country while the extreme rightwing of the Conservatives went back to fighting the moderates. The whole nation self harming because of this bunch of corrupt self serving money grubbers.

They weren’t idiot policies of a loony PM.

This is the voting issue that matters. Non of the idiocy in the Truss-Kwarteng budget was included in the Conservative Manifesto at the last election. The upshot of that is nobody voted for any of it and they certainly did not vote for the consequences of the idiot budget either.

You have a great deal more faith in Government than do I.

You don’t need to deny something that doesn’t exist. And you certainly don’t need to deny anything unless the question arises.

Oh, so it wasn’t Truss and Kwarteng that just sent the UK economy into crisis? Why then is one sacked and the other [figuratively speaking] standing in the corner with a pointy hat on her head?

Nonsense.

‘I’m alright Jack’. The BOE disagrees with your assessment of the risk to pension funds. Perhaps you should consider the impact of loading pension fund support onto the treasury.

Truss has driven the economy into crisis. Hunt’s in charge. PMQs this week is going to be wonderful.

It would be far better to let this Government deal with its own mess.
