I know a lot of the Tories secretly dream of emulating Liz Truss and slashing taxes no matter what it does to the economy.
I just didn't expect the Chancellor to come out and say it.
On the plus side, the IPSOS MRP assessment is out, and they're predicting Labour 453, Tories 115. When the previous worst (well, since 1906) Tory result was 167 in the Tony Blair landslide win in 1997. And it could get worse, 56 seats with a Tory lead are considered too close to call.
On the FFS side of things, they're predicting Farage will get in. I suppose we can hope for an expenses scandal.
