@david_rooke_ @bbcquestiontime @MRJKilcoyne @DehennaDavison @trussliz Perhaps we should focus on policy not personality right now!
I have followed her closely for at least 5 years. She is extremely sound on economics - if you like free markets. Has done a great job on Trade and Foreign Office too and is the most experienced Minister.

@JonHollis9 HS2 for sure
5-10% of staff from every Gov Dept.
The private sector are short of employees, let’s release some from the public sector.

Seems that the Office for Budget responsibility (OBR) are against tax cuts.
If I was PM I would scrap the useless and unimaginative OBR and instead setting up a new Office for Civil Service Efficiency - run by people with business experience and incentivised on success.

@LBC If it was, pity he didn’t have the herd immunity he once believed in.

@bbcquestiontime @MRJKilcoyne @DehennaDavison Well said Dehenna.
I agree - @trussliz is best placed to deliver Brexit and a stronger economy.
Europe is in a far bigger crisis than even the UK right now. Far better that we are not tied into it and can steer our own future.

@danielmgmoylan @BorisJohnson This was always about Brexit.
How long will this war go on?
It will take the self destruction of the EU before remainers see the light.
That day is coming.

@ntrance @TiceRichard Support for the Reform Party has rocketed today. Brexiters fear that Brexit will be overturned. Maybe Boris joining the Reform Party would help both and put pressure on the Tories. But not sure they would be keen on his net zero fanaticism.

@BellaWallerstei I wish Tories would focus on who will do the best job for the economy rather than who is likely to win the next election. If the economy does well, the election will be won.

@ntrance I’m not in the Reform Party.

@danwootton @jfoster2019 @MailOnline You could well be right Dan.
Boris had unique and unmatched qualities and charisma - which will surely be missed.
On the other hand, he didn't get the economics right and his deranged attachment to net zero was debilitating.
We need the right policies now.

@trussliz Hear hear.
The Government also made good progress on moving trade deals forward.
Let’s not forget that.

@ZacGoldsmith @BenGoldsmith @BorisJohnson The Net Zero nonsense turned many Conservatives against him. Green taxes and subsidies are really hurting domestic consumers and businesses and are a significant factor behind the rampant inflation.
This was a badly misjudged policy.
