Just need 700 plus more expulsions now and we might see some light.

That's not like for like.
Bridgen was suspended almost immediately; the process has now got as far as expulsion.
Abbott was suspended almost immediately.

I don't know if Bridgen got booted for the original comments alone, or the aftermath. He chunters about vaccines a lot, but it was the Holocaust bit that sank him.

Andrew Bridgen: MP expelled by Tories after Covid vaccine comments​

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leicestershire-65402195

The Conservative Party has expelled MP Andrew Bridgen after he compared Covid-19 vaccines to the Holocaust and was found to have breached lobbying rules.
The member for North West Leicestershire had already lost the party whip, meaning he was sitting as an independent.
But the Tories have now stripped him of his party membership as well.
Mr Bridgen said his expulsion "confirms the culture of corruption, collusion and cover-ups".

Blow the whistle

fuck me - in the midst of a civil war does he assume you can call up a mi9ni cab or walk down the local cab rank with your cases?

30p Lee or Gullis - the level of their stupidity - who is the dumbest - Lee makes a strong surge for the front here

And that’s how this government does business.

No words for it, I now just shake my head and await the election.

If Sunak had any credibility he would haul Lee over the coals for that behaviour but, as it is standard operating procedure for the Tories, nothing will come of that car crash from Lee

awkward question for Not So

I don't think they have. The RCN is citing precedents that time limits in law extend to the end of the day from when the time limit starts.

In any case, it's a Tory law so if they have drawn up legislation that's not clear, whose fault is that? Let's face it, the Tories often seem to get caned by the courts.

I'd have to see the judge's reasoning. How long is 6 months?

And is the Guardian or Barclay getting dates wrong? “The government wants to continue working constructively with the Royal College of Nursing, as was the case when we agreed the pay offer that was endorsed by their leadership. We now call on them to do the right thing by patients and agree derogations for their strike action on 30 May and 1 April.” 30 April and 1 May surely?

And that’s why I could not support this Tory government. A puppet of a so called leader and disgusting individuals who make up a Cabinet of hate and corruption.

It's hard to know what's parody and what's serious these days.
