Is it actually the country singer, Garth Brooks?

 

[Ted Striker]

Is it actually the country singer, Garth Brooks?

His criminal alter ego

Can't say.

Super-injunction...

 

[Raheem]

Is it actually the country singer, Garth Brooks?

Or the Sith lord Darth Crooks.

Just when you thought uk politics could not get any wierder.

That's what I'd call an odd couple.

The Tories and Crooks are fairly synonymous, I'd have thought.

 

[tony.c]

I note in his tweet Mr Blunt doesn't say anything about the possession of drugs allegation.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

That'll shut him up about Palestine, then.

One of a very few tory MPs to call Israel out for war crimes.

Careful, now.

He's a nonce-apologist, so Palestine will be better off without him.

Hmmm.....

 

[Sasaferrato]

Another has been suspended from the house for six weeks.

We need a GE soon.

(Not that I have any faith that Labour will do better, but this government has gone way beyond appallingly bad.).

He'll be pissed off you've left prominent out of your thread title as tho he was some common or garden no-mark backbencher

 

[PR1Berske]

Pincher and Bone arrested for sexual misbehaving.
Blunt arrested for alleged drug use.

Is this nominative determinism month?

It was a short statement, he was too mashed to go into further detail.

No, no theory. Just an observation.

Liam Byrne has just been caught setting fire to a neighbour's shed in a boundary dispute, too.

Nomen est omen. Sam Bankman-Fried is my recent favorite.

Is it actually the country singer, Garth Brooks?

Or his friends in low places?

according to Wikipedia he said “I put myself as a user of poppers”. Are poppers a controlled substance in the U.K.? I have rather lost track.

The original poppers became controlled, there're fake versions about, which I think are legal, but not sure, as they were never my thing TBH.

Thanks, so the controlled substances bit maybe something relatively benign. Well, maybe one less Tory except even if they decide to charge him, the course case won’t be for years thanks to the Tories underfunding the criminal justice system
