Take Back Control - Open Letter to Johnson, Gove and Stuart

Dear Boris, Michael and Gisela,

You asked to take back control and the result went your way.  Since some brief platitudes on Friday the country has heard nothing from you.  Now is a crucial time for the country and for leading politicians to show their leadership qualities.  All you have done is show us the backs of your head as you left the stage on Friday lunchtime.

Leadership is more than attending rallies with people hanging off your every word, or a couple of hours debating the arguments with other politicians.  It is about dealing with hard complex problems and having difficult conversations.  This country now has hard complex problems to answer and needs leaders who can have the difficult conversations, both within the nation and with the rest of Europe.

Our country needs leaders now, not after the party conferences or leadership campaigns.  If you are not the people who can come up with a workable plan for what this country does next - say so now so we can ignore you and get on with fixing our nation.

Yours,

A concerned voter.
