If you had a friend who you wanted to come to your wedding, but he is engaged to a current Tory MP…would you invite them?

I would absolutely invite the tory MP and get them as drunk as possible while my phone was secretly recording everything they say

Invite them no plus one, or specifically do not invite the tory and ensure they know that is the reason.

Also stage an intervention for your friend

It's actually not weird to not want to hang out with people who have reprehensible morals? You don't have to be nice anyone.

If you wanna keep the friendship, you might have to suck it up and invite the Tory MP but I suspect lots of people itt would be perfectly happy to :sever:

Also if the MP in question is Gary Sambrook, I heard on good authority that he eats big dinners. So you'd be doing yourself out of more cash.

Given this, I feel you almost have moral duty to invite them.

Although I guess there’s a good chance they won’t even be an MP by the time your wedding rolls around. which is even more fun

I'd want my wedding to be as small as possible to keep costs as low as possible so even if I was a Tory MP myself I'd probably not invite them. But if you want to do a big thing and you want your friend to be there then just suck it up, some of your relatives probably have godawful world views too. I'd not invite them myself but I'm far too obsessed with politics to the point of it probably being counter-productive :shrug:

I used to have monthly one to one meetings with my old Tory MP oval office Oliver Colvile at his flat back in the day, and I really wish I'd recorded them. A few things I remember:

He was especially proud that he went to Stowe school and only got a single O level, and even prouder of what I believe was his only act of community service that he did while in his 5th form - helping an elderly couple move out of their moldy flat and into a council flat.

He also spent a while describing his career path before becoming an MP, explaining that he was terrible at them all. One of the jobs was a diamond grader at De Beers before he was sacked, and the rest were nepo jobs reserved for Tory spawn. He eventually ran a Tory policy publishing company before becoming an MP. He was bizarrely trying to sell all of this off as "Look, I'm just like a common man because I'm terrible at everything."

He also praised the security at the Millfields gated community where he lived, saying that there was an incident involving a girl, and they were able to discreetly escort her out of the compound. One of my biggest regrets was not digging for more info about that story....

I also wish I'd recorded the exchange where he lied "I've never seen or been offered cannabis in my life", where I then passed him a bag containing a 1g bud, then pulled out two pure one-skin joints and a lighter and said 'Fancy striking it off your bucket list?' (he declined)....

It's incredible that establishment failsons like Colvile can rise to become PM. He had no redeeming qualities whatsoever, and his only qualification was that he belonged to a long-established slave and plantation owning naval family.

Funerals are the ones that get me. You can do a registry office wedding/civil partnership with a pub function room reception for a few hundred if you do it off-season, and most of that will be behind the bar for drinks, whereas a funeral costs a grand at minimum just for a direct cremation/unattended funeral, which nobody except the person who is (hopefully) already dead will be even allowed to attend.

That's why I'm going the route of donating to medicine, the hospital does all the paperwork and the costs are limited to £50 for a refrigerated truck, and everyone else remains completely free to do all the rest that they want to do to remember on their own free time.

My mam looked into this. Apparently 5 or 6 years down the line, when they've done all they can, they get in touch with the family to deal with the remains. Which seems like just punting a burial/cremation down the road.

If your friend is willingly engaged to a Tory MP they're probably not great either, even if that sort of thing never comes up - so makes no difference having one or both really.

Huh, they didn't mention that at all at Leicestershire hospitals trust, just "a small respectful service" and "only some parts may be used" and "the rest will be disposed of in a dignified manner."

If that actually means "by telling your family they've still got to pay a grand for the cremation of the remaining leg" then that still sounds like a bit of a scam.
