Sticking to the point seems to be a general Cake Stop area of weakness. Especially when centre lefties are struggling to win an argument on a specific point 😉 Cue whataboutery as above, or the usual 'but you have to consider the wider issues' approach etc etc.

Maybe you're justy not very good at making your point given the amount of people / times it seems to get missed (usually when you move the goalposts).

There wasn't a point, perhaps that is the point?

Fair play to her, she's got stamina.

She's going to dine out on it for a long time.

Well you can't say she isn't prepared to stick to her principles so that's a rarity amongst politicians. You have to admire that even if she is a completely delusional moron.

She'll be dining out on her lifetime 6 figure tax free taxpayer funded ex-PM public duty costs allowance, after 40 odd days in the job. After all the public still need to benefit from her wise pronouncements.

She still hasn't grasped that regardless of the merits of the policies, what sunk her was trying to do all of it at that time. She'd be a lot more credible if she could take on board that was an error, rather than believing that the whole economic establishment stopped her because it doesn't want to make more money.

That's the delusional moron part I was was refering to.

Books organised by spine colour is such a red flag.

I think Cleverley was expecting a big pile on backing him up. It didn't quite go like that...

Would Thatcher be classed as a leftie by current measures?

She would be an eco-warrior, remoaner leftie.

He’ll get on well with that idiot Natasha Asghar when he arrives.

This could be an interesting one to follow. One of the few remaining sensible Tories, and they go for her behind closed doors with an anonymous complaint. I wonder if the fact that she's Pakistani heritage, and the court case was about a protester mocking Sunak and Braverman (Indian heritage) lurks beneath the surface, recalling Braverman's pronouncements about Pakistani grooming gangs.

Haha, one of the few things Musk has done that is rather fun.... live tweets that update with community notes... they just can't help themselves, still lying.

If only Cleverly was an isolated individual.
The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

Well, it's a novel take.
Badenoch believes that statutory maternity pay* is excessive and is somehow discouraging people from having children. Best the party has apparently.
*90% of your average weekly earnings (before tax) for the first 6 weeks
£184.03 or 90% of your average weekly earnings (whichever is lower) for the next 33 weeks. If you are self employed you can apply for maternity allowance, which is £184.03 a week for 39 weeks.
For comparison, pensioners receive £221.20 a week.

Both Badenoch's and Jenrick's interviews sufficiently bad that I think Labour would be delighted if either won. Badenoch apparently completely uninterested in who donated £75k to the Tory Party... or, at least, pretending he has no idea who they are.

I don't understand the logic about discouraging people having children, but it's not great for employers (and I know a lot can be recovered).

I guess she's planning on allowing a lot more immigration to make up for the shortfall of people of working age to pay for us boomers (and generous MPs' pensions)
