If we factor in all of the Tory prime ministers since 2010, it's like they've each taken £20 each from our wallets (thanks to austerity, Brexit, generalised incompetence, and outright insanity), and now Sunak thinks we should be grateful because after losing £100, we're getting £5 back. And you just know he's going to get really tetchy when no one appreciates the gesture.

I know Starmer is a bit of an underwhelming proposition BUT if you don't punish the Conservatives for what they've done you're telling them that the Liz Truss premiership was just business as usual and an entirely sane way to run the economy.

Agreed! There's a Tory MP that needs to be removed from my constituency, and I'll cast my vote to whoever is best placed to make that happen. I'm in a historically Lib Dem area, whose vote share collapsed in 2015, and it's unclear whether they or Labour will be the best option come election time. I would rather vote Lib Dem, but if I've got to vote Labour in order to punish the Tory, then so be it.
