It is often said about Risi Sunak that he just isn't very good at politics which is a bit of a drawback when you are a politician but he does seem to have a knack of doing and saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.
A good example is the £2000 tax thing Sunak kept repeating in the televised debate which he said Labour polices would add to each household which he said was the calculations from Treasury officials which came back and bit him on the derriere after Treasury Officials said they never came up with the figures and they had actually sent a letter to Sunak to tell him not to use the figures or say that they had anything to do with it.
So with the sound of 'LIAR' ringing in his ears he was probably glad to get out of the country and fly to France for the D-Day celebrations although he is now being heavily criticised from all sides for skipping off early and missing the main ceremony in order to do a TV Interview about his lies where he lied about not being a liar and his general election debate behaviour where he constantly talked over the adjudicator and had to be told to lower his voice at one point.
Mr Sunak apologised on Friday morning on social media and said on reflection it was a mistake to have not stayed but his opponents shouldn't try and make political capital out of it which is beyond naive, they will quire rightly be having a field day with it.
One Conservative MP sighed that Sunak 'Just doesn't think politically' but whether it's his advisors being useless, his advisors trying to sabotage him or Sunak just ignoring them, the Prime Minister is on a mission to cause as many self-inflicted injuries as possible, it's as if he knows that him and his gang has kicked the country into the gurgler and he wants to make damned sure that he isn't the one to have to sort it out.
