Braggart posted:So while looking for something new to make fun of Boris for, I accidentally stumbled on a Spectator article comparing notable Tories to figures from classical Greece and Rome. You see, Boris is like Pericles because he likes younger women and the sound of his own voice, and the article continues in just as deeply considered a fashion. Oh god, The Spectator is awful. Tory MPs as Harry Potter characters would be as useful.

I am glad the last thread managed to get to Drugs Number Page 420 once again. Good work, goons. Now reject the order of creation, usher in the age of sin, annihilate godly values and get this election bonanza to 666

Had a bit of a wobble a few days ago and had to tap out of politics for a while following Corbyn's Neil interview when the full weight of the establishment felt like it was really bearing down on my shoulders, but now I'm fully recharged and back again for the final stretch. We're going to loving win this

I think they’re showing themselves as just weak and desperate by clinging to the whole terrorism angle with this. It’s awful that people died of course, but fundamentally this event was a relative damp squib. Last election had a similar attack AND the Manchester bombing that was a level of magnitude worse and it didn’t really move the needle. Going full racist police state because a weirdo stabbed two people just looks absurd.

boris johnson's dad wishes that michael gove was his son. boris hiding under the covers somewhere making theatrical a-bloo-bloo sobs as he cowers, great greasy tears staining his half melted face, and he knows that micheal gove - michael gove - is braver, more dignified, and evidently preferred, by his racist prick of a father. somewhere, micheal gove is trying to convince a security guard at an aquarium that as he is a fish, he should be allowed into the tanks to procreate and boris wishes so passionately that it were he instead.

Going full racist police state because a weirdo stabbed two people just looks absurd. 2 murders a day is pretty close to the statistical average for the UK so like, even if terrorism was a good reason to abolish human rights, I think we need one a bit stronger than this. Also yeah the tories aren't credible on law and order anymore at all, between police cuts and having had nine years to improve things if they do indeed need improved. e; It's a powerful, powerful article by Johnson, just full on every trope that exists, claiming he can't even do anything on national security until after Brexit is done, amazing lmao Ms Adequate fucked around with this message at 04:02 on Dec 1, 2019 |

The results for the last relevant election for Totnes: Conservative - Sarah Wollaston 26,972 (53.7%) Labour - Gerrie Messer 13,495 (26.8%) Liberal Democrats - Julian Brazil 6,466 (12.9%) So there's a lot of lols to be had. But admittedly Wollaston, though a former tory before she joined the tory party, isn't the worst the tory parties have on offer. She's said some auld shite but her voting record places her distinctly to the left of the tory mainstream, like she voted against bombing Syria, voted for a pause on rolling out UC, has been a fairly fierce voice for measures to tackle alcohol problems like minimum unit pricing, and seems to have been reasonably consistent in calling out tory bullshit that threatens the NHS or parts of it. She's also turned down the chance to climb the ministerial ladder because it would have required her not to speak out against government policies. And she used to be a eurosceptic but had a come-to-Jesus moment when the referendum was going down, and she sounds like she was more wanting reform than actual departure for the most part. I'm not actually sure why she was tory in the first place, to be honest, she'd have been a perfectly respectable blairite (lol) or have always fit in as a lib dem. Well, maybe not the latter, on account of she seems to have a greater amount of principles than zero.
