Who Will Be The Next Prime Minister Of The United Kingdom

[Archy]

Pitt the Youngest

[Admiral Yi]

I thought he said he would not seek another term.

[Richard Hakluyt]

I think it will be Osborne unless the economy takes a significant turn for the worse.

[Martinus]

By the way, is it only my impression that Osborne went from being considered an Oxbridge goofball with no actual skill or talent to one of the most prominent British politicians? I remember the stories about him used to involve him mainly hobnobing on yachts and the like.

[Richard Hakluyt]

It was hobnobbing with Russian oligarchs, distasteful perhaps, but not irrelevant to his job.

The left like to pretend that Osborne is a lightweight incompetent, rather foolish of them imo, the country is going to look very different by 2025.

In what way?

Couldn't agree more. Osborne is in fact on of the few Tories with an actual vision of conservatism got the next 20 years. I disagree with him on plenty but he's a genuine heavyweight.

For decades the UK has had a "mid-Atlantic" economy when it comes to social spending, we have spent more than the USA but less than our continental equivalents. Politicking aside there has been a consensus on this, perhaps a mild tendency for Labour to spend more but it has not really been worth getting excited about. Osborne plans on reducing the size of the state to a level below that in the USA, to levels last seen in the UK in the 1930s; this is not minor, it will change our way of life.

You think he'll be successful at that?

No idea, it is going to be very interesting seeing him try. I would urge those in the UK with decent incomes to start upping their savings, I think it is going to be a grim place for those without some capital.

[Syt]

People who can't afford to live in Londonland should just migrate to cheaper countries, and commute in from Bucharest or Sofia to do their menial jobs (teaching, hairdressing, policing, selling frapuccinos etc.) for those who can.

What about those who cannot save, with incomes enough only to live on a day-by-day basis?
