Reform, and the death of the Tory Party

[Pross]

" . . . nothing illegal has happened . . ."

As a defence, that's always pretty weak

And Reform refused to accept it when it was Rayner saying it (and where nothing illegal had happened).

They don't seem to understand that an internal investigation is not the same as a criminal investigation. It would be a good get out though, 3 years down the line at the next election 'sorry, still under investigation so we can't discuss it'.

Oh, they understand that, but they hope that their supporters don't, or at least don't care.

Are they suggesting their supporters are thick? I thought people weren't allowed to suggest that.

There's a difference between assuming and suggesting. The former would appear to be borne out by the evidence.

Yeah, right.

Even if true (it's not), ignorance is no defence. It's his job to know.

Looking at some of the supporters interviewed on the BBC website today at the conference I think that's a given.
