The ongoing stupidity of Home Secretary Priti Patel


She just got pulled up by Sky News on this. After waffling her way through questions on the hauliers being stuck in Kent and the govt being behind the curve again, she was asked about the tweet. She reckons someone else writes her tweets and couldn't remember if "they" removed it as a result of the legal experts concern.

She looked and sounded like someone lying to their back teeth on 24hrs in Police Custody.


She was on LBC earlier, utterly unable to answer a single question honestly.

"Will people in tier 4 areas be given priority access to the vaccine?"

Two minutes of waffle followed in which she didn't say the answer, which she could have said in a nano-second, "No."

I think lie is her default setting.
 
This was another simple question that she tried to lie about on the radio. Many trucks have been moved to Manston, she wouldn't say that, she tried to fluff that the truckers had gone home or something, took the interviewer about 5 attempts to get her to say they were moved to Manston.
Manston will inevitably become the government's own Fyre Festival style of debacle; how many hours before the French truckers start to take direct action against their guards?
 
According to ITV's Joel Hill just now the 1500 odd figure she was quoting - 650 still on the M20 and 873 already at Manston - is also 'misleading'.

Mossad are drowning their sorrows they recruited an agent in the British Cabinet but its Boris's cabinet and its Priti Patel:rolleyes:.
we can't possibly give her any orders that she couldn't fuck up. This "intelligence" is garbage but its the cabinet meetings?
goldsmiths BDS are more coherent and they are students:facepalm:
 
Politicians lie. Whatever next.

I am sure if anyone of us did something that halted or prejudiced a trial we would have been fined or given a night or two in the cells.
Given the bullying I bet she will be gone in the next reshuffle which is in January.
 
I'm sure I remember a time where no matter how awful a person you were as an MP, if you were caught blatantly lying you resigned or were fired. Is this just the warm fuzzy sepia toned glow of nostalgia?

Standards have always been pretty low but there was at least a time when there were some standards. But tbf Johnson hasn't got much in the way of moral high ground, having kicked off his tenure as PM by transparently lying to parliament, the nation in general and the queen.

Yeh the only way from there was down
 
I just listened to the Newscast (Brexitcast as was) "Dead Ringers" podcast, and Jan Ravens' deconstruction of Patel's way of speaking is entertainingly instructive.
 
For anyone who is interested, Barton Stacey is on the North downs in Hampshire. It can get really cold there in the winter. The nearest town is Andover, but not that near really. Arsehole middle of nowhere to all intents and purposes:
