welshbairn Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 The Chancellor always gets the blame when the economy goes tits up. Sunak will be wanting to move next door so he can appoint some other sap ASAP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be many Tory voters who will be heartened by the latest revelations. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I wonder if the current Islamophobia allegations in the Tory Cabinet will be given the same prominency as the antisemitism allegations in Labour?50% of the media and political figures think Islam is an existential threat to this country and 45% think while there are some good Muslims the majority are regressive so, no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTG Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 (edited) I'm putting this in here although for once the clusterfuck doesn't belong to the PM directly. This is the Govt minister for counter fraud eviscerating the various branches of govt for their approach to managing bounce back loans. Some of the statistics he offers are incredible. This is a rare moment - a tory with integrity. Best to start from about 15:20. https://t.co/t1De4VJJhv Edit - already being discussed in Tory hypocrisy thread.

Your link leads to a very powerful debate about one of the most shocking injustices in the last few decades, the Post Office scam that incredibly nobody apart from the victims has yet been jailed. I'll have a hunt for the Minister's statement. Edited January 24, 2022 by welshbairn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt n Vinegar Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Please, could one of our Tory-loving, nothing to see here, forum members tell the English speakers among us how an indoor event for about 30 folk where refreshments were laid on, a birthday cake was handed over and people sang "Happy Birthday" doesn't fit the (usually) widely accepted definition of "a party". No, really, come ahead. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, ok, my colleagues would have had to invite my wife into the office to hand over the cake, and the bloke who was painting and papering our living room would have to be there as well, bit she has a point. NOT! Hint to Cabinet members - if it looks like a duck..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlandmagar Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I feel sorry for the PM. With 30 odd folk there, it must have been a slither of cake he got. Some birthday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Starko Rover Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Starting to feel for Sue Gray every time she’s about the write her final paragraph for the report she checks the news and has to start again. Poor woman will still be writing this report come the next election, perhaps that the plan to keep Boris in power. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly Boris wouldn't know what a birthday party was as no one ever invited him to one when he was a kid and he's never attended any of his many kids ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
