Whilst I do kinda agree with you, due to FPTP it's not quite true.  Most voters did not vote Tory.

Could be worse, had a letter from Wessex Water stating ours is going up by £400 a year, up to £71.50pm (currently pay £37.50pm from £22.00pm in 2023).  I am looking forward to speaking to them on the phone during lunch.

I can't even go to a competitor and claim they are offering me water for £20pm to kick them into shape.  Bastards.
