The Conservative Party

Doing their paymasters bidding -

A strange tweet seeing the original proposal was by a Tory MP.

Still don’t let the facts get in the way of feeding your followers what they want.

yeah but the anti BBC culture war hadn't been declared at that stage nor was there a need to distract from Covid (Johnson had yet to delay and double the death toll at a stroke ) nor was the full horror of Brexits impact on industry being faced up to.
Now - when they need a distraction they look on twitter and see how all their supporters have a flag avatar so use that to trigger loyalty - believe you me if most of their supporters had a kitten as an avatar you would not be able to see a minister who didn't have at least one kitten in shot. Populist bull shit "government" who don't govern just sloganise and campaign

I imagine most governments want to be popular. Or at least set out to be but rarely end up being so - else they’d still be in power.

Whatever rationale he gave himself for asking the question and then patting himself on the back by tweeting it; he’s wrong. He has set a new bar of stupid.

Interestingly we've gone two consecutive days with government ministers being interviewed without flags behind them. Maybe a bit of realisation about how pathetic it looks is sinking in.

You’re given a privileged position to quiz the head of the BBC and your brain actually says “ask him about the number of pictures of the Union Jack are in a report”

What a fucking embarrassment he is.

Incidentally, for balance. I just checked the Tory manifesto for 2019 number of union jacks in that 64 page document? 0, not even when talking about the union. Polish your own mirror springs to mind

You must remember though he is a new MP for North Norfolk - literally channelling his inner Partridge

People like this boil my piss. Stuff needs getting done, he's an adult, and this is his line of questioning. It's below pathetic.

It wouldn’t be out of place in a parody.

And he stood in 2019 on a manifesto that has no Union flags in it - he is a traitor - burn him

It’s getting bizarre. Just seen Hancock with his and a massive image of the queen. Seen a couple more of them last few days with big queen pics too.
