There are a group off spelling mistakes towards the beginning around the words trafficking and gangs. Perhaps this could be corrected. Aside from that, an interesting and useful gathering of facts which highlight how we were lead into our current quagmire. Thank you.
Sometimes those of us who follow politics and current affairs closely forget that others do not know what we take for granted. As just one example I doubt more than one in ten would realise the iniquity of dividend taxes. They would not know that businesses had already paid Corporation Tax on their profits.
I had forgotten the VAT rise in 2011. Taken together with frozen allowances and IR35 the Tories can never claim to be a party of lower taxes or small business.
Please highlight the activities of N O’Brien during CV19, who he “ criticised”, which of whom were proved exactly right in what they said ( which attracted his “ fact checking” exercises ) and why, and how he has been promoted , by whom and when …. Suggest you link his voting record just for good measure…. A Uniparty apparatchik par … excellence??
The Online Safety Act 2023 should have been included. It turbocharged Ofcom's role in censorship which is being greatly amplified by Labour. It is a glaring omission. Is that because it was championed by Nadine Dorris who is now in Reform?
Thank you: I have added a link to my bookmark folder "Scourges and their Begetters" which is partly about the post-war Labour government and, mainly, about Toni Blair. Adding the Conservative mini-Blairs brings more balance.
Naturally I don't bother with the Libs/LibDems at all but I do have a separate folder for the SNP - Mony a Murrell maks a muckle.
As far as I can see, although Kemi has turned over a new leaf - or says she has - and whose new policies are Reform UK adjacent, those sitting behind her are same old, same old.
The fake Tories, every single one of them, are actually more to blame than either Blair or Starmer for the wreckage of our country.
They had every opportunity to reverse Blairism, but they doubled down.
Their egregious, hypocritical, woke incompetence wrecked our military, wrecked our economy, invented Net Zero, worshipped COVID authoritarianism, and let’s not even talk about immigration!!!
How Badenoch has the sheer brass neck to expect anyone to ever trust her or the fake Tories for a generation or so is quite beyond me!
Let's add the grooming gangs meta scandal and the total inaction to address it in 14 years.

group of, not off! haha easy to do ....
I just looked at it. Very good.

This must,must be rammed down those Tory throats,those betrayers who masquerade as serious politicians. Never let them forget.
Never forget, never forgive.
Just looked at DO NOT FORGET. Brilliant but heartbreaking in equal measures. Thank you for sharing

Well done Reform. Now to advertise the site among the wider public.

Regarding the 2010 introduction of the ‘Nudge Unit’, that Gawain identifies in this article.

Bravo.
Absolute BRAVO!

Great website. A must for anyone needing reminding, and who want to remind.
It's true the Tories screwed us and Labour is burying us !
My reply to Mike, on stopping Nigel from resigning and how we will beat them anyway:
Though there are calls to stop him resigning, it seems unlikely to happen.
So, the election will go ahead without them.
But, just because the other parties are not standing does not mean their voters will not vote! Think about what that means....😎👀
