The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel - The Tory leadership elections

xp how dare you, I’d fp you if I wasn’t on zing

the most surprising thing about rory stewart is that he looks that malformed while only being a bit posh and not a full aristo

Only some dogs are Tory Calzino, otherwise that's just objectively wrong!

cats are individualist anarchists after the fashion of max stirner

cats are a bit like tories, ruthless vermin and overrated!

it is with great regret and a heavy heart that yaddayaddayadda fp

cousin fucking has a lot to answer for across the class spectrum. I bet he still makes some average upper middle classes seem like hoi polloi just by having posher connections.

don't make me tap the sign

For the avoidance of any doubt - I have read the Labour motion proposed for tomorrow and I will NOT be voting for it.

Can’t believe the Tory turned out to be a Tory.
Still mad about that cat dig

lmao at all these fucking idiots in the replies who are shocked (SHOCKED!) that a tory is acting like a tory

or what gyac said

A lot of Lib Dems dying to vote Rory at a general election. Missed a trick there, might be his welfare bill moment

there is nothing that says moderate one nation tory more than putting your poxy political career before preventing a national crisis.

Even if he made it to the final two, the members aren’t going to vote him in.

Lol I hadn’t seen he’d said otherwise, sceeeeenes

.@RoryStewartUK says he will support the @jeremycorbyn @oletwinofficial initiative to take no-deal Brexit and risk of parliament being prorogued (suspended) off table. He is ploughing his own course. The audience here love him. Some of his MP colleagues will find this challenging

(This was before his tweet when he said he wouldn’t)

Lol

Depends on how badly Boris will fuck up once he has to open his mouth in this campaign. The membership did elect a man they hated before because he came across well.

can’t believe a man who walked across afghanistan and speaks dari would be so two-faced, smdh

calz otm re catz

Whippets are dog hardware using cat software, can’t we all just get along?

It's too late, they've already spread their mind control parasites to most of humanity.. all is lost!

There's a reason the thread is called, "The cat's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel"

lol ffs

the cat's on fire

i'm sure ILX can come to a consensus that a cat would make a better leader of the Tory party than any of the candidates running

Cats are anarcho-capitalists iirc

critical support for the cat comrades thriving thanks to the immortal science of juche

my dog was barking at his own farting arse the other day. It's moments like that stop me looking too deep into the abyss!

Rory Stewart pledges to walk through every county of the UK as prime minister

— John Stevens (@johnestevens) June 11, 2019

Just posting as I find 'em

i mean if that's all he does

I first became aware of him as prisons minister, and he was promising to resign if he hadn't sorted out the violence/drugs/suicide/low staff morale problems he had inherited. but I guess there was a "if i get promoted before that year is up then fuck 'em" clause.

the first rory stewart mentions are all abt his book but I did enjoy this one from the archives

Until Chuka Umunna loses to Rory Stewart in the 2022 elections.

2019 David Aaronovitch all like yes that's right is something amusing

i'm sure ILX can come to a consensus that a cat would make a better leader of the Tory party than any of the candidates running

Chris Marker said 'A cat is never on the side of power'.

that wasn't Chris Marker speaking :p

I got into politics because I wanted to give back to our country, which has given me so many opportunities. I'm proud to be able to share my story with you. Check out my campaign video and join me at https://t.co/idVRwMVc79 pic.twitter.com/L7cypOHNmA

If he doesn't win maybe he could walk through every county dressed as a different historical figure?

Take a (Tory) cat along and he could dress as Dick Whittington.

pack yer bags pal!

although this particular cat might struggle a bit if it was a leadership candidate....

At least our entire political landscape isn’t a humiliating fucking bin fire at which the rest of the world stands agog while we contemplate which of the parade of universally unsuitable cretins will take the wheel of the shit-laden twatbus and crash it into our fucking houses. pic.twitter.com/oxZrEywsa4

Beth Rigby: Why did you call Muslim women letterboxes?
Boris Johnson: British people want politicians to say what they mean.
Audience applauds.

so this is my first proper leadership contest as an actual Westminster person and honestly it's such a hoot, someone clicks their fingers and suddenly all your pals are sorted into different teams and fighting each other while you drink with them all, huge fan of the drama

Would it be a bit too much to point out that MLC’s obvious terribleness is visually telegraphed by her dressing like she’s raided the sale rail of a Surrey village hospice charity shop?
