Well look at the race to the bottom on environmental issues, bidding for the petrol-head vote yadda yadda - it's a real scorched earth policy, but once in a while it works in people's favour.
Meanwhile Starmer look spineless in front of the open goal....

Will take ages for drivers to get the income back. And the union coffers are likely looking threadbare.
