This is hilarious. Grab your popcorn.

I wonder who the mole is 🤣

Dominic Cummings?

Classica · 18/12/2021 23:22

I'd be hard pushed not to feck Dorries out of a whatsapp group.

Worst Tory is a crowded field but that woman is in her own special category.

AnneLovesGilbert · 18/12/2021 23:24

Proper soap opera stuff. Unedifying.

GreenLunchBox · 18/12/2021 23:29

In all seriousness I don't know what this is all achieving, though. It's really cringey.

Apparently there are more videos of Allegra Stratton to come out, being questioned about Boris' mistresses and lovechildren

A lot of them are ERG nutters so I think this is par for the course.

LostThePot · 18/12/2021 23:32

Is that actually real?

TwinklyBranch · 18/12/2021 23:33

Christ, I thought my work group chat was bad! Grin

SickAndTiredAgain · 18/12/2021 23:38

If only removing Nadine from parliament was as easy as that.

@LostThePot

Yes it's real. A second MP has sent Sam Coates some screenshots of the same conversation with a bit that was missing. The second conversation has a different WhatsApp background and Dorries' name is spelt differently (names show up how the person entered it in their phone) so it looks even more authentic now

It's just made up shit, nothings been 'leaked'

xxxGirlCrushxxx · 18/12/2021 23:43

Nadine wouldn't stand for her name being spelt wrong for a start....

xxxGirlCrushxxx · 18/12/2021 23:44

@LostThePot

No lol, of course not!

She wouldn’t know. That’s how it’s spelled on that individual’s phone, in their contacts. Separate screenshots of the same conversation (with Dorries spelled correctly) have also been sent. I’d imagine Sky’s political editor is pretty sure of his source.
DontDoThatGeorge · 18/12/2021 23:46

Sam Coates is a pretty good journalist, he'd have checked it's realness

Dorries wouldn't know someone else spelled her name wrong, would she.

It's HILARIOUS. Why the disbelief?

If only removing all of the ERG cranks was. Mind you, Steve Baker only has a majority of under 5000.
Frazzled2207 · 18/12/2021 23:50

It gets better. Sam Coates clearly has at least two sources . Check out the emoji on this one. Not sure if he’s referring to enough if Boris or nadine.

It’s like an Advent calendar of leaks
NeedAHoliday2021 · 18/12/2021 23:59

They knew that would be leaked surely. The way it’s written is as if they planned it. Fysh is an absolute, self-absorbed tit. He stood in parliament in November 2020 and said his constituency Hospital had zero covid patients… he hadn’t even asked us! He’s upset he’s not one of Boris’ cronies and is taking the opportunity.

Yeah, I thought that. Dorries probably will be happy to be seen to arse lick Boris

I know this is from a very credible journalist, but it does read very strangely, and at first glance I did find it implausible.

I enjoyed this a lot. Things are pretty dire but Tory in fighting can at least cheer us up temporarily.

Apparently there are 100 or so people in that particular WhatsApp group so some of them would be savvy enough to know it would be leaked (or even to leak it themselves) but certainly not all of them. I think that is crediting the ERG massive with far too many brain cells.
