You are an idiot, the exchequer is stuffed full with very clever economists to advise. The job of the chancellor is to guide decision making in line with the governments political policy. Go away and find me the last economist chancellor and tell me how you rated him I'm not claiming there's anything unusual about unqualified people becoming chancellor. I just don't think it's right. I think ministers should be qualified or have experience in their portfolio. But Michael Gove man, seriously. He might be surrounded by experts, but he he's had enough of them iirc. He's a prick who's ruined education. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) Nah CT is a Tory, only he can tell you why he was persuaded to vote Labour last time after years of voting Conservative. Edited April 27, 2018 by Rayvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceCadet 5 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Theresa May is an underwhelming PM with an underwhelming cabinet. There's going to be people who are uninterested. The one thing I almost envy Labour supporters for is that the membership are more than happy with JC and were happy with Ed Miliband before him, where as conservatives wouldn't go anywhere near May if given the choice.

I wasnt happy with Miliband. And many of the old Labour membership (Renton) hate Corbyn. The difference was the widespread appeal of Corbyn to many who were disengaged altogether.

SpaceCadet 5 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Jeremy Corbyn beat Owen Smith in a leadership challenge and quite comfortably too, which is why I think he's popular amongst membership. He chucked Owen Smith out of the shadow cabinet too for going against him on Brexit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing you have to understand about CT is..... he's a lying twat. Pretending he's in poverty and voted for labour are mere examples of this. Obviously you can't prove his lies most the time but they're fairly obvious. Oh, and he lives to be contrary and the centre of attention too. Politically, he's probably a lot like you. Knows his place and loves tugging the forelock (when it's not the button mushroom) to his betters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19845 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 CT definitely voted Labour. It seems so plausible, given he spends most of his time on this board tearing into them on the politics thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceCadet 5 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I'm sceptical. Same kind of thing that was thrown about regarding Donald Trump, Theresa May ought to take responsibility for losing a majority the same way the Democrat's ought to take responsibility for losing to Donald Trump. It's okay to get it wrong but it's not okay not to own it whenever you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
