      I'd expect a Cabinet member to either vote with the government on policy or resign the position, that's collective responsibility. He's in the Lords and not even subject to whipping, so should have voted with his conscience. Rwanda was just a red meat boondoggle that nobody beleieved in that cost the country 100s of millions to shore up the Tory base.

      The prisons being literally full, that's a literal literal, not a media literal, is one of several reasons Sunak had to call the election before the summer. Every few weeks over the summer and longer something will collapse, we'll be reminded of Tory incompetence and corruption, and their defeat would have got worse and worse the later the election was.

    Kier is surrounding himself with good competent people and experts. We have seen what the opposite does - The Tories drove it home to the UK people. They are a bunch of self-serving grifters. Didn't they do well? The corporate media don't quite know what to do. Spend time sympathizing with the fallen, or attacking the aspiring.

    • @archvaldor

      "Kier is surrounding himself with good competent people and experts" He's surrounding himself with the same bankers and technocrats the tories did. I think people like you love the idea that tory policies only didn't work because they were poorly executed: the truth is they don't work because they are fundamentally bad ideas., Labour is promising more of the same and will fail just as hard.

    The biggest problem that the Tories had was that they'd been in power for so long, all the MPs rode in on Brexit/Johnson popularity and hadn't experienced any real opposition in elections.
    Cameron gambled with Brexit to attract hard right elements in his party ... and lost. May tried hard but needed the support of the ERG and DUP to govern. Johnson got in only for his bluster and 'Brexit'; his sense of entitlement in his job meant that he only recruited cronies and those who didn't make him look bad. Truss was, well, Truss. Sunak came in then decided that the party wasn't hard right enough. The further to the extreme he announced, the more he lost in the polls. He ended up as scared of Reform UK poaching members as Cameron was scared of UKIP.

    Despite living in a VERY multicultural town/city that has received vast numbers of migrants be it Eastern Europeans almost ten years back, Syrians, Iraqis, Kurds and Afghans seemingly continually, when discussing the election and now the results with colleagues and friends, Immigration simply DIDN'T / DOESN'T arise.... (other than one work colleague who is a bit DIM and just spews Daily Mail headlines all day, every day) the overwhelming majority want HOUSING, NHS, POLICE and COST OF LIVING addressed ASAP.... The immigration thing is for my mind largely a media led thing.
