In an op-ed last year, Rishi Sunak wrote, “I am a Thatcherite, I am running as a Thatcherite and I will govern as a Thatcherite.” So what's his latest proposal to tackle rising food prices? Socialist price caps!
Liz Truss’s speech in Washington last week makes her the first major British politician to recognise that the unless we win the culture war, the UK is doomed to economic stagnation.
In the latest Weekly Sceptic podcast the talking points are whether the Grammys are satanic or just naff, Kemi Badenoch's promotion and the oxymoronic new 'Department for Energy Security and Net Zero'.
Liz Truss‘s contention that she is only partly to blame for the market turmoil that followed her mini-Budget, with the Bank of England also being culpable, is gathering support – from Robert Peston, among others.
Is it time to reconsider the view that Liz Truss was the architect of her own demise, with her tin-eared mini-Budget spooking the markets? Yes, according to Truss (and others). It was the Bank of England wot done it.
According to a fascinating article in the Critic, it was the reckless and irresponsible behaviour of the Bank of England that spooked the markets and brought down Liz Truss’s Government, not the mini-budget.
Rishi Sunak has reimposed the ban on fracking lifted by Liz Truss, in his first major shift away from her policy agenda. He also hinted he would bring back the ban on onshore wind farms.
In this week’s London Calling we discuss whether Rishi’s coronation is a WEF coup, the oddity of Just Stop Oil attacking a man who agrees with them about everything, and whether the world ‘globalist’ is anti-Semitic.
Rishi Sunak’s installation as Prime Minister is not the result of a globalist plot masterminded by the WEF. If there’s an invisible hand at work, it’s that of the financial markets.
Things are going to get worse before they get better. Truss should call an election, lose, and then blame the country's economic problems on Labour. If she doesn't, the Tories could be out of power for a generation.
