'Uncontrolled Immigration, Reckless Spending' – Tories Bizarrely Accuse Labour of Adopting Tory Policies

Britain's governing Conservative (Tory) Party has bizarrely accused the opposition Labour Party of pursuing a policy platform essentially indistinguishable from their own.
"Labour's mission is clear (sort of)," they wrote in what was presumably intended to be a humourous Twitter post, accompanied by a wilting rose emoji.

The bulk of the post was taken up with a digital poster outlining Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer's alleged "5 missions", namely:
Uncontrolled immigration
Reckless Spending
Higher Debt
Softer Sentences

I think a lot of people are, BUT, will they have the guts to vote for them?

We may, although the way our boundary was changed usually gives Labour a clear victory in GEs.  Two of our three councillors, in our area of the ward are Greens.  :worried:

Nothing to lose IMO. Both the main parties are abysmal with no noticeable difference in their policies and the LibDems even worse. Mind you if they did by some miracle get elected remember what the money men did when Truss became PM and had the temerity to make a tiny cut in tax or was it just not increasing it so much?
