Q: Is there five-years’ worth of action in there? Is there a perception about where the Tories intend on going, as a country? Anonymous, SW Scotland

Definitely not – although the manifesto does commit to repealing the Fixed-term Parliamenta Act, so it might not be five years until the next election. Paul Johnson, of the Institute for Fiscal Studies, said the manifesto was so empty that it would be thin for a budget let alone a multi-year programme for government. It means Johnson would undoubtedly come up with other plans for taxes, social care, and other big issues that are not in the manifesto. But in reality, a lot of a new Tory government’s time is still going to be spent on sorting out Brexit, including aiming for a trade deal with the EU by the end of 2020.

Q: What plans have the Conservative party to eliminate people’s reliance on food banks and when will they be gone? Anonymous, retired civil servant, East Yorkshire

There is no mention of food banks or eliminating their use in the Tory manifesto. The prime minister was asked about this by an audience member at Friday night’s Question Time debate. He said: “Of course we want to deal with not just the expression of poverty but also the causes of poverty. And that means dealing with educational standing. It means spreading ambition and hope around the country by investing in education and investing in social services.”

Q: Does the Tory manifesto promise to address the Waspi women’s pension issue and if so what measures are envisaged and at what cost? Anonymous, Carlisle

No there is no promise to the Waspi women in the manifesto, unlike Labour’s promise to compensate them with £58bn for the rise in their pension age. Boris Johnson has said: “We have looked at it and looked at it and I would love to magic you a solution but it is very expensive to come up with the solution that you want.”
