The prime minister appears to rule out a May general election saying he "lots to get on with".
Of course he is. Labour is ahead in the polls now, he's going to do a populist budget, do loads of visiting hospitals, try to remind the people why they liked him during Covid, THEN he'll call an election, they'll scrape through like usual, then he'll be right back to giving tax cuts to his mates and being useless.
If I were a venal and corrupt politician and I were in an easy job that paid extraordinarily well I would hold onto that job as long as possible.
I am going to say that that we'll be going to the polls in January '25.
Completely agree, if they know they are getting kicked out, then why leave early? It's not like anything else he has done has been because he enjoys improving the UK.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Rishi Sunak has appeared to rule out holding a general election in the spring.
During a visit to Mansfield, the prime minister said: "My working assumption is we'll have a general election in the second half of this year."
Labour has claimed that a spring vote is the "worst kept secret in Parliament".
And the Liberal Democrats have called on Mr Sunak to hold the vote in May rather than trying to "cling on" to power for the rest of the year.
But Mr Sunak told broadcasters on a visit to a youth centre: "I've got lots that I want to get on with."
He declined to rule out a May election categorically, but repeated his intention to go for later in the year.
The original article contains 194 words, the summary contains 124 words. Saved 36%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
"I got lots that I want to get on with"
Errm that he seems convi ced the public will not support so lets not give them a choice. Nor exactly a good choice of words when votinf get in the way of what he wants to do.
He "has lots to get on with"? Like....... what, exactly? Continuing to line his pockets at our expense? Rishi Sunak is a cunt. And he's got stupid fucking big ears, too.
Nothing he thinks he will gain a mandate for. That for sure.
Needs to stir more imigratents and benifits claiments to blame for everything. So he can gaina few points whe. He is forced to ask for one.
