It won’t. No serious policies on youth unemployment, opportunities, housing, returning to Europe. Just an iron dome fantasy and now some Daily Fail, Telegraph and Clarkson honeypot. Ridiculous failed party, led by Truss wannabe

A deeply nasty, no self -awareness, empathy less thing without any serious political agenda.

She has the most singular detachment from any empathy, understanding or engagement. Her arrogance is only matched by her lack of self awareness. Pedal a few tax cuts, talk about debt created and the fault of her party. Make up an imaginary air defence. A manifestly unserious person.

If Trump started bombing US cities himself right now, MAGA would cheer, the GOP would justify it, Media would downplay it, and I doubt anyone else would do much else about it, the guy has total impunity. Good luck with the midterms, and if that doesn't work out, good luck in general.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.
It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
