Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostCould this be a Yes Minister Sir Humphrey type crafty ploy to announce some dire sounding policy, only to obtain kudos from relieved voters when a subsequent U-turn is announced withdrawing it? Seems possible, although it would rather spoil Theresa May's self-declared "strong and stable" image.
Also, a common factor in these yoyo policy announcements and U-turns seems to be Philip Hammond. So doubtless he's for the chop after the election!

This could easily have been paid for if the government wasn't faced with a 100 billion pound bill to leave the EU.

This is the only area in life where you're on your own when it comes to arranging and paying for a major life-changing event.
If you are very rich like the Duke of Westminister you will put everything in trust and avoid paying.
If you are poor so have no assets the state has no choice but to pay.
