How to Squander a Commons Majority

 Back in 2019 when the Tories won the election with an 80-seat majority, I had hoped they would put that majority to good use.

Yes, we got the pandemic, which put thing on hold for a couple of years, but straight out of the pandemic the Tories started infighting.

An 80-seat majority. Just think what a true Conservative could've done with that. Instead the Tories squandered the opportunity. 

They could have repealed Labour's IR35 tax laws. They didn't.

They could have reduced the overall tax burden for lower paid workers. They didn't.

They could have helped small businesses and reduced corporation tax. They didn't.

Now outside the EU, they could have closed the loophole that allows international companies to pay corporation tax outside the UK. They didn't.

Out of the EU, they had the freedom to cut VAT on energy bills. They didn't.

They could have removed the UK from the ECHR in order to sort the migrant crisis. They didn't. Not even temporarily.

Once it was clear that energy was going to be a serious issue, they could have halted the stupid net zero ideology. They didn't. Not even temporarily.

They had any number of chances to implement proper, decent Tory policies, they had chances to repeal unfair/unjust legislation enacted during previous administrations. They didn't.

I can't count how many chances this government squandered. On infighting and petty vindictiveness. 

To be honest I can't see how they can survive now let alone have the time to use that majority, because I think the mainstream opinion for a new election is so definite we'll have a huge Labour majority in Parliament after the next election, which I assume will happen in the Spring.
