You know what would also be awesome to bring to America? Universal healthcare. That's also a reason Europeans are healthy. Access to healthcare that doesn't bring bankruptcy.

The Tories made Shaun Bailey a Baron after he lost the Election to Sir Sadiq Khan.
The Tories made Zac Goldsmith a Baron after he lost the Election to Sir Sadiq Khan.
They haven't given Susan Hall a Damehood yet, but I suspect its only a matter of time.
Its Tories who reward failure, not Labour.

this kind of obviously biased headline is so frustrating when MSM is fighting for credibility
1) New Year’s Honours list is nominated by public not by political leaders
2) Khan has won three elections so the average Londoner clearly doesn’t think he’s a failure

Another thing the media aren't pointing out, with CPTPP. The Tories are hailing it as a great step, at the same time as trying to sound hawkish on China. But China is in the process of joining the CPTPP. So this deal, which the Tories are hailing, is going to give China better access to our market.

One thing which isn't in the article: there are a whole lot of people who got used to having political influence under the Tories and are struggling to adapt. And a similar trend among voters.
Sometimes governments do things you don't like! That isn't "undemocratic", and you can't hack the system
