UK economy shrinks by record 20.4% in April lockdown

It doesn't look good for Boris

So Labour have risen 8% from January and the Conservatives have fallen 4% since January and you believe its a failure of the Conservatives? oh well. Nothing to do with dumping a hopeless leader for someone vaguely electable then? The lib dems, SNP & greens have donated the other 4%.

Boris has made a hash of Covid yet has only dropped 4%? Short of propositioning the queen in public how much more could he do to muck up support?

If it wasn’t for furlough Cons would be at zero - furlough will taper off very soon and taxes will be brought in to pay for it, plus second wave coming

Cons will never go to zero - just read the fan club posts on here. There is nothing they can do wrong, nothing they could do better and you're not allowed to question them.

True, but with Starmer Labour will get landslide - it’s just matter of time, plus there is that Brexit thingy in 6 months

I question their competence, leadership and policies. I see incompetence, weakness, confusion, distraction, hidden agendas, and cretinism everywhere.

Oh and 40,000 dead people who died needlessly due to the above.

Unfortunately I don't think either side are competent.

Labour with their borderline communist proposals wouldn't be as bad as the Tories and their frankenstein IR35. At least Labour wouldn't have created no rights employment.

nah of course they wouldn't

The IR35 rules became law via the Finance Act 2000 and have remained on the statute book ever since.

so remind me who was in power in 2000?

IR35 introduced by Labour doesn't remove employment rights. It is still a piece of horrific legislation, but the changes added by Tories take it to another level when it comes to damage.
