Subject: RE: BS: UK General Election
Well, Teribus, what evidence have you got that the Tories will be "strong and stable?" In the last two years they have endured a referendum result that they neither remotely expected nor remotely wanted, having been forced into the vote by their fear of a racist party and their own right wing, they have lost their leader in consequence, replaced him with a remainer who has immediately changed her spots, totally screwed up the last budget in the clumsiest possible way and cynically inflicted an opportunist election on us only two years into the parliament in spite of being the architects of a fixed-term parliament system only a few short years ago. On top of all that they are presiding over the disintegration of the NHS, have devastated school budgets and are utterly clueless about what to do about a care system that's rapidly going to hell in a handcart. Oh yes, plenty of signs of strength, stability and dependability there!
