He seemed quite bullish at PMQs today, also suggested the Sue Gray investigation will be out shortly. Wonder if he's seen an advanced copy? Knifed by David Davies at the end though And how!! I think he said in response that he didn't recognise the quote, as a biographer of Churchill I'm sure he is well aware.

Does defecting from one party to another mid term not trigger a by-election? I know officially you’re voting for the person principally rather than the party they represent but it’s still odd. No, personally I think it should or MPs just become independent rather than taking the Whip of another party. I think normally if the local party knew that their MP was about to defect, they would vote to deselect him which would trigger a by-election, with the defector having to run again for the other party. However I suspect there's not much appetite among the tories for another crushing by-election defeat that signifies the current mood among the general public.

You don't think that is odd? It proves that both parties are barely different from eachother. What sort of party would you vote for ? To be honest I’ve absolutely no idea 🤷♂️ if they are all the same, what is the point in voting for one? seems like too much a load of b*llocks to be taken seriously. I'd vote for a cummunist party, if one existed.

Listening to Boris trying to rewrite history and claiming his Covid dealings were fantastic. It’s beyond delusional. Over 150k dead. He seemed quite bullish at PMQs today, also suggested the Sue Gray investigation will be out shortly. Wonder if he's seen an advanced copy? Anyone trust the Sue Gray report?

I think there is a dividing line between Labour and this latest incarnation of the Tory party and how far they’ve lurched to the right in the last few years. Although I definitely wouldn’t vote for a communist party , for the good a British politics I think there should be another party on the far left . With first past the post this obvs would help to hand power to the Tories again . The sooner we get proportional representation the better imo . Id have a Labour Party every single time over this current bunch of bloody loons , Corbyn included !

For the love of God, please just give me a credible centre left party so I can actually start voting again.

I’m certainly not calling for a far left opposition in gov , I’m just saying that their should be a party for people who hold those values that they can vote for . Most European countries have a far left party , not that they get voted in .

Who was it on here who laughed at my post before Christmas about Tory infighting and suggested it wasn’t such a thing? Well I have to say, you’re not laughing now, are you?

Need to abolish politics and start again. It hasn't worked since the early 70s for most people, that's the sad fact you can't deny.
Oldie would agree.
