No Priti Patel Thread?

[hans kraay fan club]

.... be very careful what you wish for. We are heading for a set of the most sterile, identikit politicians ever over time, be whatever party if you step outside of the considered drone norm you'll be out.

Utter nonsense.

Quite the opposite. The cabinet, and parliament as a whole, has a good sprinkling of very odd, some very nasty, politicians with back-catalogues of criminal / civil / business / sexual misdemeanours, that any one of which would have seen them banished from politics, just a generation ago.

Anything goes now.

What are you talking about, you've just started one

It's only you and a handful of others who are obsessed with Tories and Brexit. Nobody else gives enough of a shit.

And yet you give ‘enough of a shit’ to waste your life posting on this utterly pointless fishing thread.

My problem with Priti was the subject of my diary entry on 19th February

I thought it wouldn't take long before she became 'that woman...'

Johnson or Patel, who is the bigger bully?

Bigger bully? Patel

Bigger belly? Johnson

Odious woman.

The great thing about NSC is that we are a very broad church, an eclectic mix of opinions and professions.
In My opinion The current Home Secretary is doing an excellent job, draining the civil service swamp of wet liberals. The shouty woke flakes will get their panties in a bunch but the silent majority appreciates her work.

Draining the swamp
Wet Liberals
Shouty woke flakes
Silent Majority

Any other meaningless cliches you've missed ?

Tories received 43.6 % of the vote on a turnout of 67.3 % which I'm pretty sure is not a majority.
Maybe Brexit Party statisticians could help on that one, they seemed fairly keen to repeat that 52% was a majority.

Why do people assume you have to be on the left to object to these people on moral grounds? Johnson or Patel, who is the bigger bully?

Why do you assume I am Das?..
For your information I am neither Tory or Labour, I have not registered a vote for a political party in a general election since 97.
I just happen to admire the work of the current Home Secretary, she is a breath of fresh air and I hope the racist left does not hound her out..that’s my opinion, sorry..

Mate. your avatar kind of gives away your political leanings.

It's almost as if the Home Secretary bullied you into writing this.

Absolute mess of a politician.

Get Rid.

Could you imagine Priti Patel and Kaitie Hopkins in a room together, overseen by the odious Piers Morgan. I'd pay to see that!

I'd pay to be able to not see it.

Give with one hand, take away with t'other.

Always amusing when the right wing pull out the 'race card' whilst simultaneously accusing the left of being overly virtuous.....

I'm thinking you don't get to be Home Secrerary without being an absolutely ruthless monster to all those around you

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Why are these still so funny?

They are the most singular one trick of one trick ponies and yet never fail to raise a smile.

Probably will stay funny all the time politicians keep saying stupid things. He might have to retire if Trump doesn't get back in though.

 

[CHAPPERS]

After her resignation in 2017 as UK international development secretary over her unauthorised meetings with Israeli officials that should have been the end of her career in the ministry.

But this is a post truth, post shame Britain, par for the course

Indeed. The fact that she was not booted out of the party over this is both astonishing and also completely unsurprising in equal measure.

long thought Home Secretary was the crappiest cabinet job, all downsides and very little upside.

 

[maltaseagull]

Tory Stand Chat, silly me.

Strangely, I always thought that from comments generally, NSC was more Labour supporting.

 

[Chicken Run]

It's almost as if the Home Secretary bullied you into writing this.

A lot of men feel uncomfortable being, shall we say guided, by a line manager who happens to be a woman in the work place, many in fact will pull the bully card to dig themselves out of a hole in some instances.

I think the common name attributed to a confident forthright Women in the work place is a “ball breaker”

Can’t bear the phrase myself.
