[Politics] Tory meltdown finally arrived [was: incoming]...

[CHAPPERS]

I see that Mad Nads is accused of threatening Civil Servants in her hunts for info about her non peerage. Her actions referred to Tory Whip and the speaker.

And possibly the police.

 

[Motogull]

Any sensible party would have expelled her for not resigning properly.

Well, I suppose they could have taken her public announcement as formal notice of resignation. Rules apply I guess.

Any MP resigning means that their personal staff become instantly unemployed so if one employed a couple of family members (paid by civil service) on say £40K+ and expenses, that might explain a reluctance to resign.

If you are somehow accusing that women of employing her two daughters at the expense of £80k to the tax payer and…………

Oh:

Dorries moans about BBC nepotism despite having paid two daughters public cash

The Mirror revealed in 2012 that Ms Dorries had employed her two daughters - Phillipa, then 27, and Jennifer, then 23 - in secretarial roles in her private office - at a cost of up to £80,000

Not enough money to give public sector a decent pay rise apparently.

Why can’t they just say what everyone knows?

“We don’t value you, so go to work and shut the f*** up”

Scum.

I’m not getting paid enough to dig a ditch this big.

Indeed. A bit of honesty goes a long way.

They just need to admit that they are just in it for the cash and hate the country and all the peasants who live in it.

This is rhetorical essentially but why on earth do I watch/listen to PMQs? Deputy PM was just asked about the painting over of the children’s mural at the detention centre in Kent. He didn’t even attempt to answer or refer to the question, just shared how compassionate the Govt are
I know avoiding answering questions is part of all politicians armoury but it is actually ridiculous!

edited by this eejit as mistakenly put Sunak - who isn’t even in the UK

PMQ’s is, and always has been a pantomime. A game of oneupmanship played out for laughs and point scoring. With a liberal smattering of self congratulatory nonsense. On all sides.

Any Questions and Any Answers on R4 is where I go for reasoned political debate with a. Good balance of left and right politicians and thinkers.

And those sessions where government ministers are held to account away from Westminster.

But no, PMQ’s is a waste of time.

Are there any unallocated ditches at this point?

Boris Johnson’s WhatsApp messages are yet to be received by the Covid inquiry because he is said to have forgotten the passcode for his old phone.

The former prime minister’s spokesperson said Johnson still wants to cooperate with the inquiry and did not deny being unable to recall the code.

Pants on fire?

 

[The Clamp]

Pants on fire?

Well, quite.

You don’t need to know the code to your phone to retrieve WhatsApp messages.
Just get a new sim. Put it in the locked phone. Switch it on. Get the WhatsApp app.
Your message history will be there.

 

[Motogull]

Pants on fire?

Yup. And still taking the piss out of everyone and everything. You just know he's smugly chuckling away to himself about this.

With Johnson withholding his phone, and Osbourne allegedly having sex with a drunk 16 year old, come the Revolution there is not going to be a wall long enough to stand these bastards up against.

Got it's getting worse on here. What a load of bollox.

Are you sure George Osborne had sex with a drunk 16 year old or are you a Sun reporter?

 

[Lever]

Are you sure George Osborne had sex with a drunk 16 year old or are you a Sun reporter?

No we don't. What we know is that Osborne, like Johnson and Cameron, was a fully paid up members of the Bullingdon Club. Whilst this is reprehensible enough because members habitually behaved atrociously for their own hedonistic pleasure, much of the rest of his background has been well covered over.....

 

[Flagship]

So this club let's in unaccompanied 16 year olds to have sex with Tory politicians. You should go to the Sun with that.
Could be worth a few quid.

 

[The Clamp]

Ah uhm, who paid for my private jets? Woo! Good question. Uhm, gosh! Ya stumped me!

I can’t remember but it would have been legit, I do know that. Definitely.

Rishi Sunak changes declaration again over private jet travel expenses

Questions continue to be raised about £38,500 for travel to Tory events, now declared to be from millionaire Akhil Tripathi

These poor memories that Tory leaders seem to have really are quite concerning. Have they been tested for Alzheimer’s?

I can't quite put my finger on why this is dodging.
On the face of it we all recognise the dilemma.
