Only thing i can think of is give rishi and tories high blood pressure on those polls in election. Other than that........

I doubt their blood pressure was that high, with billions of public funds openly embezzled, they can sit back on those funds for a while and let Labour have their own embezzling turn.

I felt like they just weren't even pretending to try this year, they deliberately called an early election, in the knowledge they were very unlikely to win. I wonder if they just sort of realised being in power too long might start looking silly.
