I suppose I could part with one and still be feared...
Someone else will get to drink from the poisoned Brexit chalice and life will carry on much as before, except that Brexit will make everyone a lot poorer

edit: The 120 Days of Sodom is the Marquis de Sade's breezy summer best-seller, first published in 1785 and a fixture on Tory bookshelves ever since

Looks like Activate Britain - after posting sweet #memes and being exposed talking about gassing chavs - has relaunched with a new name a new Tory youth group with we promise absolutely no links to Activate Britain (see it even says on their bio) has launched today on Twitter

https://twitter.com/Our_Conviction

I mean, the name does sound a bit like a Netflix gritty documentary about a group of nonces who, for the first time, open up about their problem.

"Our Conviction" sounds like a church youth club where they talk about saying no to drugs and sexual abstinence.

80% sure this is fake anyway (no website, logo looks like it was knocked up in 10 mins, no twitter friends or content output), but Jesus why are Tories so overwhelmingly bad at this?

Yeah I'm on the fence. On one hand that stuff, on the other hand it looks like they already have a campaign video up which would be a bit more effort than what I'd expect from a fake. Wondering if they might be copycats

Gideon is loving savage when it comes to May. He looked so happy on that one Andrew Marr show after the election. That must rank among May's biggest errors, not just sacking Osborne, but plunging the knife straight into his chest while looking him in the eye & telling him he's rubbish. Granted, she couldn't have guessed he'd get to be a newspaper editor but him going this rogue is hardly shocking.

Short version; as people in the thread predicted, the EU is being blamed for not accepting purposely vauge terms and impossible demands, being accused of inflexability for not immediately accepting them.

It's almost as if his go-to defence is blaming Brussels for his party's failures and simply can't imagine a reality in which he's simply seen as a whining idiot.
