Tory turncoat Christian Wakeford is a bundle of nerves as he calls party leader Sir Keir Starmer 'Keir Llama' https://t.co/n7nX2vO0TM

William Wragg - who has called on the PM to resign over parties at No 10 - said suspected plotters have been threatened with bad publicity and cuts to constituency funding.
He has advised colleagues who feel threatened to go to the police.
An ex-Tory MP who defected to Labour, Christian Wakeford, also said he was threatened over funding for a school.
Mr Johnson told reporters: "I have seen no evidence (and) heard no evidence."
But asked if he would look into the reports, he replied: "Of course."

Of course…

has the cunt got a wardrobe full of that suit or is it part of his camouflage system?

Buchiko and The Man (Noodle Vague), Friday, 21 January 2022 16:20 (four years ago)

it makes him look a bit like one of the old piss-heads from the Zetland st Irish League club in the 80's that would always wear a suit for a good all-day sesh. Or maybe that's more the ruddy complexion!

Buchiko and The Man (Noodle Vague), Friday, 21 January 2022 16:48 (four years ago)

ah well at least Kieth's got more than one tie i guess

Buchiko and The Man (Noodle Vague), Friday, 21 January 2022 16:48 (four years ago)

Corbyn out-dressed, out-styled that dire fucker by miles and he actually looked good in a suit. Kieth doesn't even look comfortable in his own skin, everything looks so laboured and joyless with him.

calzino, Friday, 21 January 2022 16:53 (four years ago)

Well said.

JC looked good in his M&S suits and red ties (or green for Grenfell).

Most people cannot accept facts like this and continue to pretend that JC mostly wore a donkey jacket over an old Aran sweater, unlike professional KS.

Two very good posts which happily confirm that I am correct about this.

🔺 EXCLUSIVE: A Conservative MP has accused a party whip of telling her she was fired from her ministerial job because her Muslim faith was “making colleagues uncomfortable” https://t.co/5ppNltXtDh

Fwiw she’s also also vice-chair of the 1922

Seems less than ideal that the U.K. government has come up with a diversionary natsec bombshell so thin and implausible that even Luke Harding isn’t convinced but nobody in frontline politics can point this out as that’s What Corbyn Would Do.

However four of the five men live in exile in Moscow, making their ties to Russia’s leadership less a matter of subterfuge than public record.

“You’ve made my evening. The British Foreign Office seems confused,” said former Ukrainian MP Yevhen Murayev, laughing. “It isn’t very logical. I’m banned from Russia. Not only that but money from my father’s firm there has been confiscated.”

No lesson learned by anyone at all in giving Fabricnut this oxygen

Tory Michael Fabricant on LBC rubbishes claims Nus Ghani was sacked for her faith, because: “She’s hardly someone who’s obviously Muslim”

“[Her muslimness] wasn’t apparent, seems a lame excuse she was sacked because of that”

The government has apparently briefed Sky that, contrary to the initial impression they gave, the Ukraine coup claims came from US intelligence, not U.K.

Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Sunday, 23 January 2022 15:00 (four years ago)

so they thought they'd try and pass it off as UK intelligence until they realised nobody with any credibility was actually taking it seriously!

calzino, Sunday, 23 January 2022 15:18 (four years ago)

Well, they did headline it "Look! Look! War over there...."

Mark G, Sunday, 23 January 2022 16:25 (four years ago)

I think ppl should also be aware that as long as electoral politics is the only game in town this is likely to happen.

Very serious people love to criticise the left for “hysteria” over supposed plans to destroy the NHS so it’s worth noting that this is the house newspaper of the establishment calling for an end to free healthcare in the UK https://t.co/kC72HAlt5q pic.twitter.com/gEnVZgjTRB

EXCLUSIVE: Boris Johnson had a birthday party during lockdown in June 2020 despite rules forbidding social gatherings indoors, ITV News has learnt.

Much more of this and he'll go full A Few Good Men. He's obviously desperate to say that of course the PM should be allowed to do these things, the rules were rubbish/for little people.

stet, Monday, 24 January 2022 18:45 (four years ago)

jrm has already started on "the rules were overblown at the time"

koogs, Monday, 24 January 2022 18:53 (four years ago)

The comments from Dorries and others are still emphasising that this was an event happening within a workplace context, which reinforces what we’ve known all along - that The Rules were never really intended to apply past the office / factory / call centre door. I’m not even sure I’d class it as hypocritical. There was never any impetus to make workplaces safe.

Scampo di tutti i Scampi (ShariVari), Monday, 24 January 2022 20:15 (four years ago)

Johnson should simply defect to Labour where he will get a photo shaking hands with Kieth and all will be forgiven

Buchiko and The Man (Noodle Vague), Monday, 24 January 2022 20:27 (four years ago)

having office parties - the new way to own the libs!

calzino, Monday, 24 January 2022 20:43 (four years ago)

"There was never any impetus to make workplaces safe"

I remember during the first lockdown I was talking to this bloke who works in some engineering place. When I asked if his workplace was covid-safe he laughed at me and said no, we just don't give a fuck about it!

in this week’s issue of @StylistMagazine I looked into the recent opening of a new immigration detention centre (or prison) and what this means for the women coming to seek safety and security - to then end up detained - and it’s wider context within the hostile environment. pic.twitter.com/mvYsr6H7tk
