Give it a rest beak. Boris acknowledged that his proposed tax increases to fund social care reform weren't in the Tory's manifesto. At least he hasn’t tried to fudge it. It'll fund a top up for the NHS too after the backlog caused by Covid.

People have been crying out for improvements to the way elderly folk are dealt with and this is the first time in decades that a government has tackled it with vigour.

The government have had an unprecedented epidemic to cope with and, in the circumstances, have handled it as well as anyone could IMO.

As Boris said yesterday, "A global epidemic wasn't in our manifesto either".

Trying to amuse!!!

I don't think anyone loves the Tories after breaking two election manifesto pledges in a single day, a decent Prime Minister such as Harold Macmillan would have called a General Election rather than be tainted as a liar.

What does he look like? I’ll keep my eyes open for him.

I PM'd him a while ago, worried about him, he seemed to think his contributions not worthy and has decided to give up for now. I didn't at all see the point in some of the abuse he got. At least this is a Willo thread.
However, he has left before and come back again. A lot of posters have.
