Pot, Kettle, Black...

 

It's never short of astonishing just how much brass neck the current Conservative lot have between them: the most ineffective and corrupt government that this country seen in a very long time, they seem intent on displaying the self-same tone of bullish denial and arrogance now, in opposition; trotting out the same tired cliches about the nature and motives of the Labour Party now that it is resoundingly in power as the new government. In response to Chancellor Reeves' statement to the Commons, the now Shadow Chancellor Jeremy Hunt rapidly defaulted to personal attack mode, accusing Reeves of lying to cover up tax rises that he infers will follow in the autumn budget, and claiming that their own cover-up of funding gaps during their fourteen years of achieving precisely nothing save the almost total dismantling of public services, the NHS, state education, &etc., &etc: an almost endless litany of failure and abnegation of responsibility on their part, was actually just Labour spin. He is even, after all these years, still blaming the previous Labour government for everything they've failed to achieve themselves. Pathetic.
