Boris's Arduous March

 

This afternoon Gove will announce 12 “missions” to save Britain’s “forgotten communities” — with a target that all 12 objectives will be achieved by 2030. 

The message to voters and Tory MPs is that Boris is asking for a decade in power to achieve the aims of the 2019 manifesto, and keep the promises that saw him break down Labour’s red wall.

Ten year plans only work if:

1 The plans are good

2 The people implementing them are competent

3 The people implementing them are around for 10 years.
