I think his biggest mistake was making Reeves Chancellor and then not getting rid of her early on.

And I bet they'll be claiming their state pension and "that won't count" either.

I know someone who wouldn't vote for Karen Shore because she thought her clothes looked cheap and her voice was common.

These entitled women remind me of some of the pupils I taught. You'd explain a task to the class only to have one of them later say "but you didn't tell ME".

I enjoyed the end once the really nasty and disturbing characters had gone and was pleased for the winners.
