Clueless Tories descend into utter oblivion
DIANE ABBOTT compares, with high hopes, the vibrancy of the Labour Party conference with the bankrupt policies offered by dead-end Tories
THIS week, the Tories claimed that they want to build a country that works for everyone, but in fact their conference showed they have nothing left to offer the people of Britain.
They’ve spent the week rehashing policies and watering down Labour ideas to present as their own. They’ve shown a lacklustre and divided front and failed to address the real issues facing our country.
