A by-election would be very difficult for Sunak to manage.

HAHA

[steviewevie]

18% food inflation.

consensus seemed to be rates going up were now 50%/50% on the bank failures. You would hope that inflation figure means the rise is now nailed on.

Just playing catch up...does this mean that Johnson has had a quiet word to Sunak and said if you don't let me off the hook you won't get your NI legislation passed?

I don't imagine, but you never know....it's going to pass because of labour votes...and I guess brexit/eu still divides the tories but maybe not as much as before...maybe Johnson sees this as something that could also help him in a future leadership competition but surely he must be realising that is looking less and less likely.

Didn't he sack all Tory MPs who voted against his Brexit bill?

Ah okay, Labour voting for it then...well it's just more tory internal psychodrama then. Feeling pretty much the same way as Freedman right now:

yeah, definitely. Just want him to go away and earn loads of money from sad sacks of shit who actually pay to watch him speak bollocks.
