Facts are facts and just because they expose the flaws in your views doesn't make them any less so.

Many voters are contrary and hypocrites if Boris turns the world economic situation affecting UK in time and gives back a majority of the population there life as it was before the pandemic they will change there mind.

The cost of lockdown crisis was expected.   You can't let people sit on their backsides for 2 years giving them free money and not expect there to be consequences.   Labour were asking for harder, longer lockdowns and it would be even worse had they been in charge.   Most people understand this.   

 

If the Tories want to win the next election all they need to do is remove/reduce the green levies and VAT from energy, deal with the illegal immigration issue and they will win the next election at a canter.   

 

Starmer still polls lower than Johnson.

Labour need a leader that appeals to more than just the left if they want to prevent the inevitable.  Starmer is not that man.

The tories lost the by-elections because of johnson and the govts inability to deal with the cost of living crisis [as it is labelled], change is required and he is on borrowed time.

So what is Labours (or anyone's) vision to deal with the cost of lockdown crisis?  Give people more free money that will cause even higher inflation?  

 

You can say borrowed time all you like but Starmer is actually less electable than Johnson, even now with all the scandal that surrounds Johnson.   I don't even know how that is possible but Starmer has achieved it.

The Guardian reports on many countries, their current economic situation and how they deal with it.

 

But this thread isn't about them is it...

You mean people not happy with the PM, his Government and the mess they are making of the UK.

 

Yes I agree, voting them out is an excellent means of protest.
