Realism would be handy
The Tory party is tearing itself apart with even the cabinet splitting over the issue of immigration. Suella Braverman wants us all to retrain as fruit pickers, in order to stop pesky foreigners coming here and ruining her immigration figures.
Meanwhile in the real world the big shortages of staff. are in health, social care and education, where strangely the government is desperately trying to hold down wages. You have to be pretty stupid not to see the connection but the Conservative party is managing it with ease. .
Increasingly there will to be a clash between far right politics and a failure to understand that people want paying for their work and companies need staff.
The UK cannot afford this farce but will have to endure it. Meanwhile growth will be damaged and the country will run its health and education systems into the ground.
All for a Tory party headline.
Economics, trade and Brexit, not necessarily in that order but the dog always comes first.
