Some shocking stats there.
Is it though?

Most card-carrying Tories are probably quite old
Most old people grew up in a country that was far more white than it is now
Most people are weary/uncomfortable around other people/things they're not familiar with.

I don't agree with it, but I understand how they could feel that way.

Yes, I understand those factors too - but it still shocks me that the false narratives are so deeply embedded. Media have a lot to answer for, I'd say.

I thought Boris was complaining about being hard up. I guess they scraped up the money from somewhere, poor mites.......

Good thing they've proven themselves capable of handling a crisis over the last 7 months, have total confidence they could handle two simultaneously.

Still hoping this is just theatrics to get the EU to budge. But I don't think there's anything these clowns couldn't f*ck up

Absolutely.

When you consider the chancellor put forwards another package of 22bn to support people going into lockdown and couldn’t spare 157m for the kids, it really is indefensible.

The ridiculous thing is, we did this same dance the first time round when the Tories refused to fund the meals, got increasing pressure from Rashford and the public, had to u turn and back down with everyone wondering why they didn’t just take the easy win in the first place.

Seems like they’ve learnt...
