The New Conservative Party Strategy

The Conservatives have came up with an ingenious wheeze where they announce abolishing unpopular Government policies without even bothering to have them as Government policies in the first place. Genius!
In a surprise speech this week, Rishi Sunak announcing he was scrapping a number of heavy-handed measures that would hit people in their pockets.
so on the rubbish heap goes compulsory carpooling along with forcing seven types of recycling bins in our homes and any taxes on Meat are now a no-no which led many Conservative Politicians to look at each other and say 'We were going to do all that?'
When it was put to Sunak that he was pretending to halt frightening proposals that simply do not exist he disagreed and said that these were all things which have been raised by very credible people about ways to meet our net zero obligations which turned out to be the notes from a Conservative Party think tank  
meeting and were about as close to becoming policies as Boris Johnson was to a hairbrush.
Maybe it is a new way of British politics where the Government think up something unpopular and then announce they are not doing it and expect everyone to sing their praises for being great people for not doing something which they had no plans on ever doing anyway.
To be fair as the Conservatives are currently facing a dicking of biblical proportions when they get around to calling a General Election then you can't blame them for trying something desperate and boy this was desperate if they thought they would get away with it.
