We don't have a constitution and Parliament is run on tradition that relies on honestly or the "good chaps" principle.

Like Trump in America habitual liars are extremely difficult to bring to book

Sunaks "cut the green crap" speech

UK August inflation figures show prices are still rising by 6.7%.

Even though Jeremy Hunt claims this "shows Govt policy (doing nothing & blaming Bank of England for interest rates) is working", its still higher than Eurozone (5.5%) achieved with far smaller interest rates (4%)🙄

UK based FORD and BMW (investment backed by 2030 deadline promise) are furious. They have invested billions for the EV 2030 deadline.

Further future investment of billions now at risk as Industry MUST have stability.

Ideally Government Industrial policies that are cast in stone.

That's why leaving the EU was so destructive affecting "just in time" supply chains.

While "rules of origin" next year could create tariffs of 10% if content is less than 50% of the cost of UK/EU parts.

This could be like TRUSSONOMICS unwinding in humiliation in a few days time.

26 councils are nearly bust as central funding cut to the bone.
