Suella Braverman spread her vile, racist dogma whilst others warned of non-existent, entirely fictional Labour policies such as taxing meat and controlling access to shops.
But Sunak was the worst and most dishonest speaker. He talked of the Conservative party being the party of small business, of how Brexit had made businesses more competitive when the opposite is the truth. He claimed falsely yet again that reducing inflation was a tax cut. He claimed the Tories are a party concerned to protect the environment whilst water companies continue to tip sewage into our now filthy rivers and the sea. He lied by thanking Kemi Badenoch for sweeping away Brussels 'red tape' and saving British businesses £1 billion per year. He confirmed the cancellation of HS2 beyond Manchester, claiming that the government would spend the £36 billion saved on hundreds of other new projects.
British politics was ruined the day they made politics a career. Once they did that, people without any work experience went straight into politics to make a name for themselves, and to make money. Before that, the people who went into politics were people who had been a success in life and who wanted to go into politics "to give something back". This is why we can observe all the greed in the corridors of power today. It is also why we rarely witness resignations when MPs have disgraced themselves. Our parliamentary system is rotten to the core. – © Mark Alexander
