Not been following but has The Sun newspaper changed back to being a Labour paper again?

Dreadful, stage managed, politics. Absolutely cringeworthy.

Great to see the LibDems have just outmuscled ‘Other’ in the poll. Onwards and upwards.

Cheap shot.

Dreadful, stage managed, politics. Absolutely cringeworthy.

All Party Political Broadcasts are stage managed politics.

Well, apart from the Tory one, which was truly cringeworthy.

Why does it matter where the interview was conducted? No relevance whatsoever.

Given the polling, the best option now is for the Conservatives to concentrate on the most marginal seats where they can stem the tide, and that includes his own constituency.

Stem the tide. You’d have been fucking brilliant on the Titanic: “Has anyone got a plug?”

Likely they’ll give a lukewarm endorsement, only really because they don’t want to be seen to be backing a loser.

As chief prosecutor Starmer tried to put most of their editorial staff in prison over phone hacking so any endorsement won’t be with much gusto.

and the Reform one. No stage management at all there!

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

The Tories and their acolytes are an absolute joke. Every single question is answered by some obscure, made-up bullshit about what Labour will do to kill off all hopes of a decent future, and when asked about their governance, just brush it off with ‘But Labour’.

If I was a traditional Tory at this time I’d be fuming with them, not even having the good grace to talk about what they can do for their voters and treating them as idiots.

What a sorry state of affairs we have with the Tory Party. How has it come to this?

Does traditional conservativism even exist anymore?

Intersting read, that. I thought he had no contact with anyone outside his cohort for three decades but the mad **** was given loads of indicators that the war was over but chose to ignore them.

Shows how powerful the human mind is and how readily we can create our own reality if circumstances push us in that direction.

I get the impression he’s not lost you as a potential voter as you’d never vote Labour in the first place.

Daily Tory fuck up started early this morning

 

[MillionMilesAway]

It's baffling how anyone in such a position could think that it's an intelligent thing to do.

Are they all bent?

More sleaze. More shade. More treating us like twats.

Not long now and these putrid oxygen thieves will be gone; hopefully for good.

To the Brexit thread!!!!

I'm convinced that, along with Johnson destroyed them.
