To say that people that live on the streets have made a lifestyle choice is a Marie Antoinette moment
What the Home Secretary has said is nail in the coffin of the Conservative Party. Insensitive, careless, brutal - adjectives that perfectly describe Suella Braverman's attitude towards a social problem that has been getting increasingly worse.
In the meantime, Conservative MPs keep making headlines by losing the whip of the Conservative Party and by-elections are being lost towards the greatest challenge ahead in May 2024.
I have asked what is the Dream. There is no Dream. What the country is being offered is an absolute nightmare and this includes the imposition of a totalitarian state in which anybody who rises to criticize what is going wrong will be publicly hanged. Even for the most fervent members of the Conservative Party what is happening is absolutely intolerable. I reckon finding people willing to stand for the Conservative Party in elections will be increasingly difficult at a time when many of the big guns of the Conservative Party are not willing to stand. The Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt MP has already indicated that he will not be standing - some say for fear of losing like Michael Portillo. Earlier, the now former Secretary for Defense Ben Wallace MP also indicated that he will not be standing.
Once again, there is no Dream on offer. Realities on the ground tell us that what is on offer is an absolute nightmare. Insensitive, careless and brutal - once again the image that the present government is showing to members of the public. The now mythological 'Give them cakes' has been translated into something extremely real when winter approaches. Suella Braverman has indicated that 'tents will not be allowed'. So now people who have no access to housing because housing lists for those waiting for accommodation get steadily longer are being handed a death sentence.
The idea of passing laws that penalize people for criticizing what is happening in Britain does not belong in a democratic society. What next? People sent to jail for criticizing the government?
