Yeah I honestly struggle to understand the outrage on this, as if Tories openly laughing in our faces hasn't been standard practice for over a decade.

No, the Sun aren't reporting on the Downing Street party because he wasn't there. He was at their Christmas party, which was held the same night.

Maybe before they thought Bozza Wot A Larf was laughing WITH them at lefty woke snowflakes welfare skiving scroungers refugees etc but now, just maybe, they start to realize he was laughing AT them. And people don't like that.

Honestly looking forward to hearing what my "I suffered so everyone else should have to as well" Tory voting grandparents make of this. This actually seems like exactly the kind of thing (& the only kind of thing) that could actually get through to that particular type of voter (which I understand comprises about 40% of voters)

Welcome to modern politics, where the office xmas party actually has a (very small) chance of toppling the government.

Been reading up a bit on the Nationality and Borders Bill. Do you reckon Patel was invited to any of the parties? I have to think that her true believer zeal makes at least a few of her colleagues as nervous as the rest of us.

it's a big slapstick comedy sketch where they keep going out one door the moment the party comes in the other door and just missing the fact that a party exists

We're too easily distracted for any of these outrages to have any lasting consequences. The party has already caused people to forget the cocaine, which caused people to forget the bum touching, which caused people to forget the thousands of gallons of liquid poo poo going into the ocean... so on and so forth. These situations will just keep passing us by like objects on a conveyor belt.

So, what's next?

i mean no we're not. It's just that we can't do anything. People with power had to care and now they don't

it has nothing to do with distractions or playing too much video games or e numbers. If anyone is to blame it's the journalist class which just stopped giving a gently caress about integrity and everyone loving hates them.
