James Cleverly’s unpleasant turn of phrase

[krtek a houby]

I used to work in the City, but am having a break at the moment.

Graduate, officer class, City type

I'd have thought more the sort of person who hands out copies of the Evening Standard. Well, someone has to, although fuck knows why.

Nothing wrong with handing out newspapers, tbf

Yes obviously a working class johnny eh what?

 

[ouirdeaux]

Nah, just an idiot desperate for attention.

Vile twat was on Kay burley earlier.
Burley, " I know you to be a good man, so why did you say those things".
They went on to chat and smile how lovely Mrs C is cos burley has met her.
I'm fucking livid at such blatant bias.

He's doing the full media rounds this morning. Got a slightly harder time on BBC breakfast about what his wife thought about it but just said that was a private matter. He's still got Susanna Reid to come on GMB at 8.30 though who is quite a tough interviewer.

They've shown the clip twice now, but have omitted the ' good man bit'.
Can't watch the cunt again on GMB, let me know how it goes.

Well her sidekick this morning is Richard 'Partridge' Madeley for added entertainment value. I'd tune in.

He just said that he should have told the "joke" in private, rather than in front of the media

Confirming that, yes he is in fact a complete arsehole.

TBH, we didn't really need that confirmed.

It's a bit late now should of engaged brain first

Would have thought that not-clever-lee should be getting grilled over the fudge regarding "processing the asylum backlog" that "he says" has been completed by the deadline of 31Dec2023.

The BBC coverage indicates that a large chunk of applications have been "withdrawn" by the gov't as the applicant has "disappeared" ...
status 13 Dec 2023

Is Rishi Sunak meeting his asylum pledge?

It has been a year since the prime minister pledged to clear the legacy backlog, so how is he getting on?

www.bbc.co.uk

and "today"

James Cleverly insists older asylum case backlog dealt with

But Home Office figures show the total asylum cases waiting for an initial decision still stands at 99,000.

There's him (and his acolytes) trying to make light of this and paint it as just a nice little bit of banter. But he has form...



I mean, bleurgh. What could that possibly be intended to achieve except misogyny?

First post on the thread.

He's an utter disgrace, but then they all are, seems to have been a long time since there were any talented and honourable ministers in this country.

Oh. Damn. That seems such a long time ago, now.

the 2019 intake were fucking dire, the old cordon sanitaire went straight in the bin so we could have several fash leaning or ex bnp twats foisted on us by a system desperate to fuck the left over any and all other priorities.

He was on R4 this morning, denying point blank that he called Stockton "a shithole", despite numerous accounts contradicting this.

Cleverly, the MP for Braintree: he doth protest too much.

 

[Silas Loom]

At least he didn’t say it about Tottenham Hale.
