Bias
60%
Examples:
- But an equally apt analogy is that the wheels have come off.
- Despite banners around the hall heralding ’Bold Action’, more of the same is a better description.
- No one here, not even Sunak, genuinely believes he will be in Downing Street on July 5 to enact any of it.
- The vast conference space, where a particularly dire episode of The Apprentice had been shot shortly before Sunak took the reins of the Tory party, did not offer the most auspicious atmosphere.
Conflicts of Interest
100%
Examples:
- The sense of anti-climax in the cavernous hall was palpable.
- The wheels have come off.
Contradictions
80%
Examples:
- There are grumblings within the party for bolder actions like leaving the ECHR or holding a referendum on it, more ambitious tax cuts, or offering something to young people.
