The Muppeteers voted for BoJo to get the deal through, now we're all stuck with the most incompetent Government in the modern era.

Every person who voted for this shambolic crew for the first time ever deserves all the cr@p that is thrown at them.

Only when the penny drops in their Brexit addled minds will the country get rid of this blundering shower.

Vote Conservative - Get shafted.

I presume then that you're happy with the litany of balls-ups the Government have made & continue to make?

The Thatcher administration was a vicious bunch, but at least they were competent.

How does one measure competency?

Levels of unemployment, growth in the economy, inflation and how they deal with the major issues that arise whist in government ?

We could add to this, how they are going with implementing and adhering to their manifesto pledges
So far, over the last 2 years, how do you rate Bojo & Co.

I suppose they did "get Brexit done" but, not quite the "oven ready deal" that so many were promised.

How many would you give them out of 10 ?

Well I don't think they've done too bad on the economy and the way they have looked after workers with furlough,employment rates soaring, wages increasing at above inflation levels ,economy growing at a faster rate than predicted, happy days really

HAPPY DAYS ??

You're very easily pleased.
With around 1.6 million still on furlough and with the scheme due to end in just a few days (30th September), those figures look likely to change.
So, marks out of 10 for the most dishonest PM in living memory ?

No question that furlough prevented mass job losses and in that respect has been good for large numbers of workers but, it's worth remembering that so far, it's cost an eye watering £66 billion, which will be paid back with additional tax increases and with inflation increasing quite quickly and the possibility of interest rates going up, it could be a very "interesting" winter.

There's over 1 million job vacancies and rising wages across all sectors, so any potential future tax rises should be offset by higher wages ,surely now any workers getting furlough must be working for failing companies as everything goes back to normal after lockdown or industies like travel

The simple answer would be to blame it on the pandemic as every other country has, or are you confident that your lot would have done it better.

You could add what you like it won't have made the slightest difference as history tells us that your mates will promise you the moon on a stick, then when in power will do what they want, as for bojo the only difference between him and Kinnock Foot and this latest clown of yours is that at least Boris causes amusement, mind you that Corbitt fellow has caused a few giggles in his time.

If I were as gullible as you, I could be forgiven in thinking that there was some reluctant admiration on your part for your admittance that you suppose they did get Brexit done.

Marks out of 10, honestly! probably the same as your post, **** please insert your own mark
