Yet more Tory sleaze….

Carlson ended up looking like a dick

I'm sure the Maga lot will lap it up though, it'll help Trump's cause and assuming Trump gets the gig, TC will be rightly rewarded....

What I struggle with however, among the Maga's socialism is a very dirty word...I remember when Communism was the dirty world. Have the Maga lunatics forgotten the cold war already?

I rather think that question implies a coherent thought process among said lunatics.

Reality no longer matters with Maga. It's a cult.

Brexit was a cult too. Anyone remember this Vote Leave advert?

It annoyed me so much at the time I went and looked up NHS usage figures. Turns out immigrants use the NHS half the amount white British do. Why? Because they are predominantly young and in good health.

Sticking this here though it's not just the Tories of course. New peerage list.

Nobody who has donated to a political party should get an honour. Nobody who has been employed as a political advisor should get one. (I don't object to them for long serving non bat sh*t politicians). Nobody who is 27 has done enough to get a peerage.

Michelle Mone stole six thousand, eight hundred and nine years of Carer's Allowance.

And justice still seems 6,809 years away.

But don’t forget Angela Rayner may have got a bit confused when selling a council house before she was an MP and working as a care worker.

 

[AuroraSaab]

Even if she did it was likely through ignorance not an attempt to defraud. Not really a police or a resigning matter, and I say that as someone who favours much greater transparency in politician's dealings and also doesn't much like her.

Seems a bit odd, that if you are illegally detained, you pay money to your detainers rather than going to the police.......

This is the same guy who got caught out paying a male escort.
I have no problem with consenting adults doing what ever they want, but if I was to think of the easiest ways to get blackmailed, a gay escort would be very high up the list.

Of course this is when the Tories discover the own goal they set up by pressuring Rayner, and the trap she set by promising to resign if found guilty (her case will go nowhere). Also begs the question as to why James Daly and CCHQ sat on this case without reporting it.

The thing that amazes me about the current crop of Tories is just how bad they are at politics.

I am beginning to realise what a boring, sheltered life I have led, unlike the average MP

Are gay escorts the most likely kind to blackmail people?
(Meanwhile, I'm going to guess that this MP had no interest in female escorts. Yes, I know I'm making an assumption there, but we'll see ... )

I’ll have to do some field work and let you know.
