There is now.

KenAdams · 29/04/2022 20:14

Oh well if this is it, this is worth a watch:

Love Marina Hyde’s comment: He’s like the boyfriend of the missing girl who helps with the search

Alliswells · 29/04/2022 20:21

This has to stop.

FourChimneys · 29/04/2022 20:22

In the organisation I do some work for that would be an instant dismissal. I like working alongside people with morals and integrity.

Different rules for our so called leaders though.

Seen what his wife has said? Ignore the typos. This is lifted straight from bbc news

"I'm a woman," she was quoted say saying. "Hence why the women were so cross. It's degrading. It's demanding. But on the other hand it takes two to tango. There must be women posing for all this."

I don't understand what a whip is? Can anyone explain please?

It seems like there are no rules for MP's any more. What is the point of a Ministerial Code because it doesn't seem to cover anything at all.

Cancel culture at its worst.

Being an MP is a highly pressurised job, the poor man needed some relief via a crafty wank. In the House of Commons. Just shows he's a healthy red blooded male.

Anyway I heard Angela Rayner once watched a filthy foreign film on Channel 4.

Let's save some time.
• He was ambushed by the porn.
• He is recovering from an illness and his doctor said he has to test his eye sight - watching porn is a well known medical eye test.
• And let's face it, House of Comons is super boring.
• Plus, he only watched it for 9 minutes.
• He apologises if you feel angry.
• There is much bigger stuff to worry about.
• Move on

Have I covered it all?
I think I may have missed my calling as PR for Tory HQ 🤔

FOJN · 29/04/2022 20:34

He needs to resign. He would be sacked in any other job. His wife's comments are shocking, just more misogyny, women are always responsible for what men do. FFS

WalkerWalking · 29/04/2022 20:35

He didn't realise it was porn- he thought it was a workplace training video.

The Whip is someone who keeps party discipline and makes them all behave, both in voting the party way and other things. The whip is also the right to vote on matters. Removing the whip is essentially kicking them out of the party, even temporarily.

There are various levels of whip.

This could all be bollocks as my politics degree is prehistoric.

I'm desperately trying to craft a dominatrix-based joke about this before anyone else does......

Blossomtoes · 29/04/2022 20:37

At least Labour’s not wanking (shamelessly stolen from Marina Hyde).

5zeds · 29/04/2022 20:38

Just utterly embarrassing in every way. Does he get replaced or will there be a local election?

Haven't you noticed there's a war on?

I think you covered the rest.

ilovesooty · 29/04/2022 20:39

He's no intention of resigning and is going to continue to work for his constituents.

I was feeling some sympathy for his wife until I read that.

  • Requests privacy for his wife and children at this difficult time
  • Taking time out to work on his battle with mental health issues
  • Has been under strain due to workload

Only thing missing was the argument that MPs have to represent all of society and some members of society are grotty. AKA a paraphrase of what Quentin Letts said on GMB the other day.

Given who he works for that is a plausible excuse
