Nadine Dorries – 2023 Comments on Potential Reversal of Channel 4 Privatisation Plans

The comments made by Nadine Dorries, the Conservative MP for Mid Bedfordshire, on Twitter on 4 January 2023.

Three years of a progressive Tory government being washed down the drain. Levelling up, dumped. Social care reform, dumped. Keeping young and vulnerable people safe online, watered down. A bonfire of EU leg, not happening. Sale of C4 giving back £2b reversed. Replaced with what?

A policy at some time in the future to teach maths for longer with teachers we don’t yet even have to do so.

Where is the mandate- who voted for this?

Will now be almost impossible to face the electorate at a General Election and expect voters to believe or trust our manifesto commitments.
