What Is The Conservative Party In Power To Achieve?

[Untitled]

as truss seems likely to backpedal on her right-wing mini-budget this afternoon the party looks too divided to actually agree on anything despite having a huge majority…

apart from brexit, what do they actually want to do?

[naomi24]

It doesn't matter what 'they want to do'. On stabling Boris in the back they've destroyed any chance of doing anything significant. Fools all.

i'm a simple soul re politics so why did they vote for her if they don't want to back her?

[ichkeria]

Kwarteng will be sacked today …

[naomi24]

*stabbing

[jno]

keep their jobs.

[jno]

aelmpvw, it was the party members who voted for her. The actual MPs didn't want her, they wanted Sunak.

[MissTerious]

Agree Naomi !

they still have two years with a majority… what do they want to do with it?

[Atheist]

Naomi; I was enjoying the image of Johnson being tied up in the stables behind number ten!

[goodgoalie]

ael - they (Tory MPs) didn't vote for her, the Tory party members did

[Zacs-Master]

The Conservatives have only ever been in power to make the rich richer as well as creating opportunities for others to become rich. The trickle-down effect then makes the rest of the general population better off.

[MissTerious]

And I have never been a stalwart Conservative!

[naomi24]

jno, Sunak would have fared no better. Neither are up to the job.

[naomi24]

Atheist, thought you might - hence the speedy amendment. ;o)

[William51]

The Tories made a big mistake in booting out a competent PM and the electorate can see that. Labour will get back in when their chance comes.

[Atheist]

Trickle-down effect. I feel sorry for the people in the bottom bunk.

[maggiebee]

Think you got it right with "stabling" Naomi - bit of a ass that one.

[jno]

we've no idea if Sunak's up to the job or not; I can only say I've thought all along he was the best candidate of an uninspiring bunch. The goverment's short-term aim is to stop themselves looking like a bunch of clowns, and I think he's still the best bet for that. He seems to have a fair amount of political nous, which is a start; neither Truss nor Kwarteng has displayed any at all.

[MissTerious]

William, I agree with you!

[aelmpvw]

^ thanks for the clarification, it makes sense to me now i (i think)
so i assume that means the tory party members aren't in sync with the tory mps? (know now why i don't get involved with politics :-)
