‘Shameful Tories are out of concepts and rooster Rishi Sunak is out of time’
A General Election can not come quickly sufficient to comb the Tories from energy – which is why Rishi Sunak has chickened out of holding one.
Instead of dealing with as much as the nation’s opinion on May 2, the PM desires to cling on for just a few extra months earlier than inevitable defeat. That comes at a price. The taxpayer would save £33.2million if a nationwide ballot was held on the identical day as native elections.
