George Freeman has caught essence of Tories in two word phrase: lazy privilege

Jon Trickett MP, Shadow Minister for the Cabinet Office, responding to the news that Theresa May’s policy chief, George Freeman, has resigned from his role in No 10, said:

“For a man who once said that the ‘raison d’ être’ of his role in No.10 was to face the challenge of renewal in office, his resignation speaks volumes on the current state of the Tories in Government.

“He has caught the essence of the Conservative Party in a two word phrase: lazy privilege. It tells you all that’s wrong with Theresa May’s Government because they are working for the few, while Labour is working for the many.”
