Amber Rudd resigns and then returns (and resigns again)

[Rivendelboy]

Another DWP leader resigns.

Thereby saving the taxpayer thousands by not having to pay them benefits because they quit like the feckless wasters they are.

Oh wait...

Seriously, it's a case of sniffing the wind. Her majority is wafer thin so she knew she was on the way out.

 

[existentialist]

And she's gone again!

Amber Rudd resigns from cabinet

Presumably, there comes a point where so many Conservatives have left the party that they might end up with a higher claim to the "Conservative" name, and leave the rump of the party scrabbling around for some kind of rebrand that doesn't look like the knell of political doom?

'the lawbreaking fascist cunt party'?

'the lawbreaking fascist cunt party'?

Perhaps a little too true to the actual mission...

 

[brogdale]

As the John Mann "anti-semitism Tsar" story broke I suppose we should have expected a/some resignations from the blustercunt's cabinet.

True to trading standards rules though...veering to the right to the extent of vowing to break the law is never a good look.

 

[Sprocket.]

'the lawbreaking fascist cunt party'?

Catchy, yet a hint of menace.

 

[not-bono-ever]

bah

i was looking forward to seeing her 356 majority go rogue & come back and bite her in the arse

 

[brogdale]

Oh..."..and party."

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Oh..."..and party."

Seems a bit redundant given the Stalinist purge mentality of late.

 

[Supine]

Lib Dems will have a majority if this keeps up!

How much is cunty Boris in the minority now? -22?

 

[not-bono-ever]

a defector is worth -2 to Johnson, a quitter only -1.

 

[DJWrongspeed]

is this the end of Johnson's Govt, seems like so much ill will now ?

 

[butchersapron]

The govt is fine

 

[butchersapron]

Vomit:
Anna Soubry, a former Conservative and now leader of the Independent Group for Change, tweeted Rudd’s resignation letter alongside the words: “At last. respect.”

Another DWP leader resigns.

Her majority is wafer thin so she knew she was on the way out.

The opposing vote was boosted by a large number of students voting. If an early election takes place most of them wouldn’t have had time to register yet. Another reason why labour should play this out a bit longer.

 

[Argonia]

Lovely to see the Tories spontaneously combusting right in front of our eyes

 

[not-bono-ever]

she still wants to fight for compassion and fairness tho'

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

How the fuck have we got to the point where Amber Rudd, heir to the IDS mantle of kicker-in-chief of the poor and disabled, can be described as champion of the "moderates" with barely a hint of irony?

 

[not-bono-ever]

jostling for position now that johnson looks to be fucked.

as i have said on one or two threads, there are some tory cunts at the moment who are such cunts of immense cuntitude that they are making some other tory cunts look (at first glance at least) as if they aren't cunts in comparison.

 

[Weller]

at this rate he will be in a worse position than John Major ever was at the END if he isnt in Government Cone Syndrome territory already unable to even pass a reworking of the Traffic Cone hotline bill
Although the country is in a very important time as far as the future goes I find this the craziest but most entertaining time in politics that Ive seen since Major and Spitting Image came about
and it doesnt seem like its going to stop yet I do love the speed everything happens these days of internet politics

Cones Hotline - Wikipedia

 

[Dogsauce]

I mean who didn’t in their mischievous youth find themselves calling the cones hotline and asking for a 99 flake please?

Cuntidude is all relative after all.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

a defector is worth -2 to Johnson, a quitter only -1.

So he's -22, rather than -23 if she joined the libdems?

pretty sure this is up to date maybe even including Rudd
the speaker and speaker deputies dont vote and sinn fein dont take their seats hence safe being 320 out of the 650 seats

The Real Conservative Party.
