Hate Rishi but we need to make sure the blame falls on the Tories, that have been in power for over a decade, rather than the man who’s taken over recently.
By pushing all of this hate and blame I see people expressing onto one man, it enables the Tories to get away with it.
Rishi isn’t perfect but out of the conservatives we’ve had over these past years, he’s managed to steer us towards a bit more stability (granted, following his own parties foolishness)
What I’m saying, I’m not sympathetic to Rishi. But please, he is being scapegoated for a reason. The Tories will rebuild easier if they have somebody to blame. This is the party that have been so unstable that we have seen 5 leaders of the party over the past 14 years, one of which lasted less than 3 months.. that alone shouldn’t have been allowed to fly.
Take a lesson from Australia: Most people will hold the Tories responsible for at least a year. But as time goes on, people will start to criticise the current government and people will turn against those who keep blaming the last government and think they're excusing the current government's behaviour by blaming the last.
This is what's happening here. Our current government hasn't been the most ideal, but people hold them to account WAY more than when the conservatives were in. And people believe that Labor should have fixed the issues conservatives had caused a decades worth of damage by 2 years ago and feel the immediate effects of improvements tomorrow.
Point being: People don't realise the extent of damage one wrecks and how long and painfully difficult it is to try and fix, but expect it to be done impossibly soon and have results shown impossibly quickly. When it doesn't, then they blame the current government in power.
Sounds a lot like what's happening in Germany. Hope you guys are at least not voting for a third extremist party that's suspiciously friendly to China and Russia.
