It's obvious already that Andy Burnham is just a people pleaser. It's no good having a leader who changes decisions at the drop of a hat just because it gets some bad press.
So do you think Farage will be any better then ?

I would love to see a good old fashioned commence sense approach to spending. The current deficit is unsustainable.

I believe that Farage is the best-placed out of possible future leaders to deliver some much needed serious change. Whether the civil service would allow him to succeed I don't know.
How is Farage better placed to do anything about it.What are his credentials ?

Trump says the UK is bankrupt .....

.... £3trillion ... that's now the size of Britain's national debt

... £12trillion, once unfunded public sector pensions, PFI contracts and nuclear clean-up costs are included.

... best of luck to whoever gets the job 🤞
Every country in the world is bankrupt ,that is precisely how they are controlled by non-governmental agencies .

Desire for change, to put Britain first, and to redirect spend more efficiently rather than spaffing more and more money on the same old woke shit.

Labour is planning to raise the 40% tax rate to 48% and then coming back to f**k your granny with a 10% 'Death' tax 👵
