The Conservative Party

The damage behind the scenes will be severe. How many Tory MPs like Boris and/or Patel. How many actively dislike them? There are over 100 new Tory MPs so i guess they are still forming their views on a lot of the main characters.

Miriam Cates (Penistone & Stocksbridge) was on the BBC earlier - she got awfully shouty and argumentative with the presenter. It felt like she was one who'd been told to go and defend the govt.
 
They're a bit wank aren't they.
The fact that they are in power at all is a pretty sad indictment of where the UK is politically right now.
I mean, if this shower is the best we can elect then something somewhere has gone seriously wrong.
The big problem is that all the best innovators, academics, scientists, business tycoons etc. do not want to be politicians so you end up with mainly ex-university PPE students as MP’s. They haven’t got a clue what they are doing so in actual fact it is the career Civil Servants that run the country, so there is hardly any difference in policies between whichever party is in power.

Utter nonsense, I'm afraid. Are you Bigga in disguise?

I think i saw that. She did not come across well - but then its like that thing they used to do on 5 live - defend the indefensible...

The fall out will do damage. None of these people want to defend her. Its all about political capital. Tories lose it defending her. Piling in and calling her out would be a gain because public opinion will be very clear.

Yes, she's toxic right now, but they don't lose anything by doing what they've done.

Whether this hurts much (or anyone cares) when the next council elections occur, we'll see, but the next general election is 4 years away and it'll have been forgotten.
