The fall of the Tory party

Totally. Sowing the seeds for the hard Left wing radical anti democracy, pro Terrorist attack lines

Everything Sunak does is mandated from Tufton Street

He's anti protest unless it's Welsh farmers protesting government policies, then he'll show up in support

Some speculation on that speech:

What's the Nitter alternative again?

Can someone summarise this, as I can only see the opening tweet and I refuse to generate any income for Musk whilst he's promoting far right policies.

Austerity creates the conditions for populism and extremism, examples of this in history, Sunak is here to capitalise on it and the spring budget will probably fuel it further with more austerity coming

Thanks both.

I think Sunak believes one more speech, this time in Downing St with A lecturn! That'll do it!One more phrase or slogan,to find that magic word that will turn everything around make it all better, to not be 20 points behind being laughed at and derided by most and become a cool dude winner.

Yeah, just one more speech, that's all that's needed. Delusional.

The tory party are like the wehrmacht in Paris in July '44. They knew the game was up so they were stealing any and everything. Furniture, paintings, wine. One nazi tried to stuff a sheep in a Renault. That sheep is your pension, in a way.

The ego and not wanting to quit is helping it, just gonna be even better when he does get his arse handed to him as he's just so arrogant!

Susan Hall has a car crash radio interview.

Susan Hall has another car crash radio interview.

FTFY.

Gove blaming the SNPs 'obsession' with independence for the decline of public services in Scotland is my new jam.

It's not like we can do the same for the Conservatives' Brexit obsession in the rest of the UK...

I think it is something they picked up from the COVID response. Create a common enemy, explain it can be defeated by 'coming together' and use all the bells, whistles, slogans and lecterns to underline the urgency of... it.

There is validity to some of his points yesterday, but it would have landed better if he denounced some of the recent nonsense in his own party at the same time. Rings hollow when Truss/Braverman/Anderson will be on the Sunday morning shows calling for corporal punishment against wokeism or whatever batshit thing falls out of their mouth next.

All this talk of the Tory’s stealing a bunch of Labour tax changes like getting rid of non-Dom tax status is interesting. There going to do this to give a bigger general tax cut and screw labours spending plans. There would zero point in doing this and then waiting 6 months to call the election to let labour change their plans. If this happens I think we on for a May election if not before.

" Jeremy Hunt has been forced to contribute more than £100,000 of his own money to his constituency Conservative party to bolster his chances of re-election, official records show, amid warnings that he is set to lose his seat.

Hunt’s Godalming and Ash constituency is a target seat for the Liberal Democrats, and a Survation poll projects that he is on course to become the first chancellor in modern times to lose at a general election.

Electoral Commission records show that he has given £105,261 to the South-west Surrey Conservative association over the last five years. "

so he's donating to himself to keep himself employed ? how benevolent. money no doubt grifted from companies he's done favours for in parliament.
aaand he'll probably claim it back on expenses

money no doubt grifted from companies he's done favours for in parliament

Not particularly wanting to defend him but he sold the company he founded for £30m so he can afford this without (further) corruption. He's got so much money he successfully argued that he forgot all about 7 luxury flats he owned

Can totally relate. I regularly find flats hiding in my sofa cushions.

It’s ingrained in these scum bags, they’ll never have enough. Look at sunak, massively increasing the number of government contracts going to Infosys. he’s wife childcare company getting hand outs and loads of dodgy Covid loans and furlough payments to his wife’s businesses

And yet we should aspire to crazy wealth while we’re the mad/greedy ones for too many bikes 🤷‍♂️

New Ipsos poll gives Labour a 27-point lead, with Conservatives at their lowest ever level.

If repeated at an election they would lose all but 25 seats. Those losing seats would include Rishi Sunak, Jeremy Hunt, Kemi Badenoch, Michael Gove, Liz Truss and Suella Braverman

File under never gonna happen, but let's just dream for a moment...

What I'm really, really sick off is Tories on a daily basis, from the PM down, moaning about how shit everything is, as if it is someone who is in charge.

All these shitty things have happened on their watch, mainly due to the polices, actions and rhetoric that they are responsible for.

They have caused the most division, they been the biggest threat against democracy, no more than that, they have actively eroded democracy over the last 8 years. They just need to go. Now. And stay the fuck away for a generation.
