This is not a political statement, but in my opinion he is actually being very smart by putting tax cuts for high earners and wealthy pensioners on the table. Both labour and the tories have a problem in that their respective voting bases are have moved to vote for the B and LD parties respectively. What Bojo is doing is offering a traditional olive branch to woo the traditional tory voters back to supporting the party. A smart move on his part as the resulting debt will be a problem for future generations rather than current politicians.
