In reply to ebdon:
I want to say "Thanks for posting this" - it's going to have me voting for the first time - but I'm too busy smashing my head in to the wall.
From the article:
Supported by Conservative MPs including the head of the Common Sense Group of backbenchers
Much like the Covid Recovery Group, their name probably needs referring to the advertising standards authority whenever it's used in any marketing materials.... I feel measurably dumber for reading their website / manifesto.
There are other areas I think the NT could have more balance in its presentation, for example a bit more open recognition of the role of arms dealing to funding Cragside. Not sure how the common sense group would react to this as it's obvious liberal-lefty thinking but they also have a clear hard-on for WW2 analogies and militaristic jingoism given their manifesto.
