There is an admirable Conservative belief in quiet government & that politics should not intrude into every nook & cranny of national life. Like who presents #MotD. Let sports presenters present sport without overly bothering about their political beliefs. — PolitiTweet.org

From a purely political perspective, it would’ve suited the Tories to have a short, sharp recession in 2023 with the economy bouncing back (& interest rates falling) in 2024. That now looks unlikely. Me for ⁦@NewStatesman⁩. https://t.co/sxEhtxOCHu — PolitiTweet.org

Better-than-expected growth this year is, paradoxically, a problem for Rishi Sunak. My piece for @NewStatesman on why we may still be grappling with inflation at the time of the next General Election. https://t.co/sxEhtxOCHu — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

Large numbers of young men deprived of all hope, & detained on sites not designed for the purpose may prove to be immensely challenging to control. The Government hopes this will be a deterrent, it may also prove to be the conditions that provoke a riot. — PolitiTweet.org

Indefinitely detaining hundreds of young men in poorly constructed camps could end very badly. My piece for @NewStatesman in response to the announcement of the Illegal Immigration Bill. https://t.co/nXy3YaozHk — PolitiTweet.org

So what was once described as "an oven ready deal" is now considered to be deeply flawed and in need of fundamental reform. And a report that was described as "vindicating" Boris Johnson is now a "stitch-up by a Labour stooge". Not all of these statements can be true. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

Boris Johnson continues to argue that the way to get concessions from the EU is to threaten to act unilaterally. But, as I argue in @NewStatesman, Sunak has achieved much more than Johnson by dropping that strategy & establishing trust. https://t.co/Gx9TfmAbOk — PolitiTweet.org
