The Conservative Party

It still does...

Nobody can know why people voted or what they knew or did not. However, everyone was led to believe that they would have a better quality of life, though, subsequently, that has now been postponed and it will apparently be two generations before that happens.

It will never happen. Brexit is permanent damage.

It will be challenged in the courts so I doubt it will come to anything it is as you say a dead cat because the news tonite is Johnson facing at least 3 more fines. In any event I am looking forward to them explaining how this will deter people.

No. 10 partygoers should be sent to Rwanda. They're the ones who've broken the law, not asylum-seekers.
 
Amongst other things, a good government should be there to protect ordinary people from the whims and the greed of billionaires.

When you vote Tory you're voting for a party that seeks to protect the interests of billionaires from ordinary people. It's the case now and it always will be. They don't care about you and they don't care about this country. How they became the political choice for flag shaggers I'll never know as it's glaringly obvious they have zero loyalty to this country and would sell it out in a heartbeat in their pursuit of money and power.
 
Hurley Burley was on the verge of calling the Tory MP on this morning a lying **** this morning.

His performance was a fantastic example of gaslighting.
 
Eight days ago on LBC , lord harrington (refugees minister) denied knowing anything about this saying ‘if this is happening in the same corridor at the home office as I’m in, nobody told me’.
I was just wondering if something may have happened in the last few days to have caused this sudden announcement of a nasty populist action.
 
Khan has decided to step down and appeal his conviction, thus necessitating a by-election in Wakefield. He won the seat in 2019 with a 3,358 majority and 6.1% swing from Labour, which it had held since 1932. The local elections will be difficult enough, but this by-election will be the first real test of the Red Wall and should shed light on how (un)popular the government has become.

It might just be a statistical quirk but there seems something disturbing about an increasing number of the 2019 intake of MPs.

Perverts, rapists and apologists of rapists, disreputable company directors and another convicted for harassment.

Was it case of parties rushing to select candidates and ending up with too many rotten apples on the back benches?

Think it’s more to do with Vote Leave. Seems being a wrong’un was a prerequisite to represent them.

Probably a combination of factors. A lack of due diligence when selecting candidates, a desire to select candidates who espoused a certain ideology, and a dearth of candidates after a run of rather quick elections in succession. We also saw a number of candidates win in seats they might not have been expected to win, so they may have been on the ballot to make up the numbers more than anything. The SNP had a similar ‘quality’ issue when it won so many seats a few years back.

Like them all - they all were selected because of a devotion to the B word - morality - proberty and political acumen were not deemed necessary

which takes the much vaunted 80 seat majority down to 70 after taking into account by-election defeats defectors and those who have lost the whip and sit as independents - not bad going by Johnson as he whittles his majority down

The working majority was 77, though you’re quite right that it is falling. Still enough to get a another few world-leading projects through the House…

Johnson and Sunak broke the law but apologised and they said that was good enough let’s carry on as if nothing happened. A boat load of illegal immigrants have just landed and apologised does that mean that they can stay and carry on as if nothing happened?

I also heard that we are sending Ukrainian refugees to Rwanda as well. Aren’t we? No? Thats different? Oh. Can’t think why.
