which leadership hopeful will admit to smashing drugs next I wonder. Sajid Javid admitting to glue sniffing? Grayling smoked bannana skins?

all evidence suggests BJ has been on a quaalude bender for some years now

These drug confessions might just be tactical to put pressure on Johnson to own up to things, knowing the scale/frequency of his indiscretions might not be so palatable to the Tory membership.

 

[Dogsauce]

Ashamed of drug use, but not apparently ashamed of being tories. Which one has destroyed more lives?

Tomorrow's Mail on Sunday: Rory Stewart's amphetamine wank loop

 

[Steel Icarus]

amphetamine wank loop

Not one of the best Ruddy Yurts bootlegs tbh. Whoever recorded it placed the tape player far too close to their plate, and while the scraping of cutlery adds a nice counterpoint to the polyrhythms onstage it's very jarring during the stiller moments. (Amphetamine Wank Loop p.19 - Grey Browed Dawn.)

I just told the mrs about this, and she immediately said ‘God, that’s going to ruin the reputation of cocaine’.

I'm pretty sure Gove wouldn't be the first resident of Number 10 to have had the occasional line...

I think we might see a series of confessions, all of them wanting to seem a little more with-it than "running through fields of wheat," but none of them willing to admit that they might have taken drugs and found it an enjoyable experience.

"In school they used to call me Penny Moredrugs. It was a troubled time."

“Journalist took cocaine at parties in the 90s” must qualify as the least surprising headline this month!

Any word from George?

Dominic Raab: I was known as "Main Acid Bro," and it was more than just an anagram.

Kit Malthouse: They used to call me Ket Malthouse because I was getting stoned on ketamine so much. Once I took so much ketamine that I believed I could fly, but I sensibly decided to start my attempt from the ground. None of this is true, shall I just drop out of the race now?

There is something amusing about the tory drug confession mini summary.



As for Gove, I never understand why nobody drags up clips of the wealth of awful comments that fell out of Goves mouth when he was involved with a tv program in the buildup to the Iraq war. One where he was acting 'for the prosecution case' against Saddam and repeatedly parroted all the discredited weapons stuff etc.

"I made a stupid mistake - I was at a wedding in a large community meeting and somebody passed round this pipe and I smoked it."

Rory Stewart looks like somebody who regularly has to excuse himself to visit a large community wedding in Iran.

Gove mad for gak

 

[not-bono-ever]

cue a rush from all of these parasites to dump their drug experimentation stories in public to clear the decks for their careers. Its nauseating that none of these fuckers have actually said, yep, it was good fun when i did it and I dont regret it actually.

 

[teqniq]

Hypocrites.

 

[not-bono-ever]

i was toying nominating myself to stand for the brext party as a piece of situationist theatre- there isnt enough ink in the world to list my experimentation regrets

Aren’t they the same thing? The drug trade being just one of the most unregulated aspects of capitalism.

 

[Doctor Carrot]

'I regret taking cocaine' says man who looks like he spent the previous evening taking cocaine.

 

[not-bono-ever]

the problem is that admitting normal traits makes them come across as more human, more fallable. Its a digusting spiral of publicly spill yer guts, jazz up your story and appear human top trumping going on now

 

[philosophical]

Gosh.
Will it be Esther Methvey next?

They love doing daring things, Theresa ran through a wheat field remember
