Stand corrected. So she might be a bit thick then (i.e. the entry requirements for Cambridge are WILDLY different for us plebs vs toffs. (I should know, back in 1979 - when A-levels were hard ;-) - I got 4 straight A's inc Maths, Physics and Chemistry, applied to Downing College, Cambridge to do Physics and didn't get in.)

The thing that me about this woman though is not her seeming lack of intelligence, because to be fair she is probably quite bright. It's the STAGGERING lack of political awareness. I mean, I am not the most diplomatic person in the world but even I would sure as hell know that if I described homelessness as a lifestyle choice for some people, (a) it is crass and insensitive, but (b) it would be seized upon by the media and opposition and open me up to all sorts of criticism. As it has done. It was a monumentally stupid comment.

She’s very politically aware, she’s aware that there is an extreme faction in the Tory party in fact it could said the UKIP reverse takeover is now almost complete, she’s speaking to them not the British public, it’s dog whistle politics designed for her leadership bid

She should be but she has Sunak backed into a corner where he's down to the bare bones of their support. She goes and it starts eating into that support. He has nowhere to go.

United will be looking for a new manager soon. They'd go hand in glove. ;)

Oops she's upset the Orange Order now

 

[journolud]

She’s out of control

She needs removing from any type of power she is clearly unfit for it, on the other hand she could finish the Tories off for good

In which case leave her there

Seems like a storm is a brewing over suggested edits (by Downing street) and what was eventually published....

Well yeah, but when you spend your life surrounded by people who think like you, it's possible to genuinely think that it's what everyone else thinks too.

A bit like the lefty echo-chamber than is Bluemoon and most supporters ;-)
