Tories Surge Despite the Blows to Their Credibility!
There was a period last week where I thought a lot of people were thinking along the same lines as me. That thought process would be something along the lines of, ‘I am not so sure if Corbyn can deliver his manifesto and whether it will even work but, sod it, I’d rather that than the other option of self-serving populism’.

Election Campaign – Week One
After the first week of the election campaign, it is difficult to make a call on where it is heading. Having had numerous conversations with people the general consensus is that Boris Johnson is not liked, mainly because he is a liar.

This might sound like a daft thing to say but as far as I can see, that is what The Daily Mail think. That said, The Daily Mail also seem to think that the whole country cheered on the England rugby team on Saturday. I think that is unlikely when you consider that rugby sits in third place behind football and cricket ...
