Interesting video, thank you. Good questions raised, and it's certainly clear that the Conservatives need to know what their message is. But as much as the policy direction is, there has got to be competence to go with it, and when I look at the potential leaders, I'm not sure I see it.

It's like buying B-graded goods, these politicians always have a fault somewhere. Mogg lost my confidence when he backed Johnson, lying that he was a great leader and was telling the truth etc. It was all total bullshit. Anyone could see Johnson was a serious wrong'un, but he backed him to the end. The ones you can trust are the ones who tell the truth when the truth goes agaisnt their interests. It's far better to admit it, than to let people find out or suspect it later on. Everyone makes mistakes. If you admit your mistakes but most of the time you get it right, people will always believe you. Mr perfect does not exist and is a liar anyway.

To be competent you have to believe in something - unfortunately for the past 14 years the Tory Government has failed to believe in any conservative principles.
Take Immigration policy, it isn't better or worse than Labour, it's the same thing. Mass legal & illegal immigration began in the mid 90s, & has continued uninterrupted during LibLabCon government
Hence the Tory collapse.

As I've said before Boris was ne of the most honest PMs we've had. He was elected to "Get Brexit done" and he did his best against the combined opposition of half his own party, all the other parties and the Speaker. It was a sterling effort. While Theresa May just tried to fake it and Starmer is going to try to undo Brexit - while all the time claiming he isn't.

Anyway, comparing Johnson to the rest of his party is hardly a measure. May was a bloody failure as well. The party has failed. They are a bunch of sexual perverts and criminals.

I'll tell you what Starmer will do - he'll agree to "dynamic realignment" with the EU. That undoes most of Brexit with one stroke of the pen.

Dynamic was a term coined by Leibnitz and is supposed to be the opposite of static, as in "in motion". He is using it in the metaphorical sense though, so the statement itself is senseless. This is a why I have no idea what he will actually do. When he does it I will know what he is going to do after the act.
For example there is some talk about making it easier for scientist working on science project to live in the UK when working on science projects. I think we should do more science with Europeans so no problem there. If his dynamic realignment means following EU trade policy on sanctioning China then I'd class him as some sort of economic terrorist. He should instead think how to make the UK a more attractive place for foreign investment from China. The way they work is we be nice to them and they will be nice to us. Hungary is a case in point and sees large inward investment from China thanks to its free-thinking leader. I've yet to gauge Starmer's asshole factor. So far he has not done anything so for me the man is still on probation. Talk is cheap, as they say.
