The New Tories - Ruthlessly Incompetent. Post Examples of Tory Stupidity Here

[existentialist]

Perhaps I am being terribly judgemental here, but it does seem to me that sexual harassment is baked in to the Tory philosophy. I appreciate that there are plenty of examples of sexual offensiveness from MPs of other parties, but I don't get the sense of them being nearly so well-facilitated - and covered for afterwards - by the parties themselves.

And then there's the corruption...

The Liberals gave us Cyril Smith and Clement Freud at a time when they only had four other MP's, one of whom was Jeremy Thorpe who sent out hitmen to whack his estranged lover. Being Liberal assasins they messed up and topped Rinka, the great dane, instead.

Like I said, I don't think the Tories have any monopoly on this. But they certainly seem to go in for it in a much bigger way, given that the examples you give are some decades old!

This photo is just amazing. Loving the lines racked onto a baking tin. Also the serious pose that says - 'Dont get me wrong, I'm a libertine, but also a bit of a thinker'

 

[seeformiles]

Makes a change from that Osborne pic I suppose



ETA: great minds

A baking tin - why? Surely everyone’s got a copy of Dark Side if the Moon to rack up on

Does look like he needs a bit of cheering up tbh

 

[Cerv]

he's made a bit of a mess of those lines hasn't he?
looks like a load spilt down the side and stuck in the rim.

what needed pixelating. I'm curious.

It’s like the coke snorting scenes in “Peaky Blinders” - I don’t think anyone has managed to successfully hoover a single speck in 6 series, they just spread it round the table

What a weird picture. He looks fairly sober and coherent. Certainly more than me after a night caning it, which presumably he was doing given the daylight coming through the window. Who the hell took that?

His wife (who he was paying £51k a year for her part time job working for him) appears to have been living quite a nice life herself going on her Facebook. What a fall from grace. Having your name mowed into your massive front lawn by the gardener, all class. She actually complains that his London tax payer funded parliamentary flat was 'the size of a postage stamp' on there. The agony.

There must be a tale behind that photo. I'm Northern so I know all about making as little coke as I can afford spread out as far as possible but that's ridiculous.

Boris Johnson resigning for breaking law would 'send wrong message' to Putin, says MSP

BORIS Johnson’s resignation would be a boost for Vladimir Putin, a Conservative MSP has claimed.

Um, not sure I follow the 'logic' here unless he's worried the message is hold our pint whilst we make Liz Truss PM

There's at least three lines racked up there, probably 4 so there must have others present. Anyway, on a human level, he's got two young kids so this isn't fun for them. The Mail is claiming it's a stitch up by the Russians to destabilise our government by bringing down the MP for Somerset and Froome, and warning other MPs to watch their backs in case it happens to them.

Only if they borrow money off Russians to spend on coke and prostitutes

It smells somewhat of desperation which is kinda weird seeing as there have been plenty of scenarios where the arsehole should have resigned but did not. To think he may consider or by forced into resigning right now is fanciful.

I get that as a theory but he's not exactly a household name, not even in Frome!

Well I agree its not going to happen. But "In the UK we expect leaders to be law abiding and trustworthy" seems like the right message to me

How difficult is is not be a leering sex offender ? I know I have an internal kinda moral code going on but surely it can’t be difficult to act respectfully when out and about

Even creepier is that he texted the girl in the morning to ask if she was proud to have stayed in an MP's flat, like he's Brad Pitt or something. Just gross.

Shocked that he was found out.

[Chilli.s]

A tried and tested way of wriggling out of any consequences

 

[Calamity1971]

Fucking state of this.

I feel more sorry for Harriet Warbarton. (and Jamis Wallis's wife too while I'm at it)

Living in a post satire age, I don't know whether this is true or not. But surely a better response would be 'it's some flour, I wanted to own the snowflakes'
