Funded by cracking down on tax swerving?! They’ve had 14 years to crack down on tax avoidance and tax evasion. Guess what they’ve never done! Guess WHY.

Can’t believe the only strategy they have left is to buy pensioner votes at all cost.
It’s literally the only voter base they have left now. These policies are just to ensure they keep some votes intact.
But they’re not even attempting to appeal to anyone under the age of 60.
under the age of 60.
Do not under estimate the % of 40 to 50 yo who will support this national service crap.
53 myself. And while I never have liked it. It is far from unpopular in my age group. Add the fact polls are already predicting low 50% turn out numbers in some areas.
Please please don’t get over confident. Ensure your friends know turn out may well lead to more tory rule. Even if its a minority lead party. It may well effect things once some stupid attack on labours leadership starts.
Come on we all know a 2024 bacon sandwich moment is coming. The tories may be evil. But they know how to play this game.
Such a shameless and brazen attempt to bribe the older electorate.
shameless and brazen
And pathetic. As most pensioners will know full well. Tory actions are directly responsible for the issue.
Hey we will fix our own fault problems. Really is the best they are offering.
Tories in a nutshell, 25 days of slave labour for the young, tax breaks for the old.
This isn’t going to turn the election so it doesn’t really count. Actually none of what Sunak is promising will actually make a difference to the election. The only way Starmer is going to lose is if he endorses rejoining the European Union and if there’s one policy he’s actually been clear on it’s not rejoining.
Jaysus Sunak when are we going to hear something actually exciting or original from you? Where’s your industrial strategy? Probably never which is why he’ll lose.
Over confidence may very well turn the election. Remember tories are trying to turn a group known to actually turn up and vote.
Low voter turn out really is the biggest risk of a tory win.
He’ll be advocating free TV licences next.
