Rachel Wolf, co-author of the 2019 manifesto, warns the public will not accept the Conservatives' failure to deliver on their promises
But she warned the public would not accept the Tory Government’s failure to deliver the basics of the manifesto, which she blamed on the dysfunction caused by two ousted prime ministers.
She added: “Rishi inherited an almost impossible situation. It’s a tragedy, and while a lot of it was out of the hands of politicians, not all of it was.” Mr Sunak has successfully agreed fresh post-Brexit trading arrangements to replace Mr Johnson’s malfunctioning Northern Ireland Protocol, but support is far from unanimous. The PM has yet to ensure Northern Ireland has “unfettered access” to the rest of the UK that will allow it to enjoy the “full economic benefits of Brexit”.The manifesto pledged not to borrow to fund day-to-day spending, while it also promised to have debt lower at the end of the parliament than at the start.
The Tories’ manifesto promised “overall numbers will come down”, while also ensuring that the “British people are always in control”. Instead net migration stands at more than 600,000 for this year alone, while record numbers of asylum seekers are crossing the Channel each year.
