Meanwhile we are in a recession, public services are stretched beyond limits and the Conservatives are polling at 20-22%.

Hunt will of course throw public services further under the bus by offering up yet more tax breaks. But I suspect the public are now spotting where the gaps are in funding.

It’s part of her chat with Bannon. Bannon says there’s a risk of a radical Islamist party having seats in the commons in the next election. Truss responds by saying there’s going to be a by election in a couple of weeks and a radical Islamic party could win it. Bannon then brings up the Rochdale grooming gangs and rapes and how Tommy Robinson and heroes fought that and now they are going have a radical jihadist party send someone to Conmons. Liz responds with ‘that is correct’.

I’ve looked up the list of candidates. They can only really be referring to the ex Labour candidate I think. Ignoring the fact that Labour have withdrawn the whip.

I agree it's been a handy distraction from Badenoch/Staunton but I think the gap between their recollections will continue to be reviewed.
Shameful to see just how many subpostmasters have died without receiving exoneration, let alone without being compensated.

Actually if’s probably not withdrawing the whip given he’s not actually an MP. They’ve withdrawn support.

And in case that wasn’t enough. Also from Adam Bienkov:

Conservative MP Lee Anderson tells GB News that he thinks Sadiq Khan has "given our capital city away" to Islamists, who are "his mates".

"Islamists have got control of Khan and they’ve got control of London," he says.

Thanks, I have just seen that clip

Xposted with you on 30p Flee so deleted link

This week has been totally mad hasn’t it. Hoping every one will be a bit less mad next week.

Not if they are going to defend Anderson

Conservative source: “Lee was simply making the point that the Mayor, in his capacity as Police and Crime Commissioner for London, has abjectly failed to get a grip on the appalling Islamist marches we have seen in London recently.”

That wasn't what he said though.

I don't think they ever implemented the recommendations from 2021 of Islamophobia report. Blamed delays on the 'change over' between Johnson & Truss.

30p Lee is a thick tit who'll be toast come the election.

"Appalling islamist marches" yet the Conservatives don't support a ceasefire so therefore yes, marches.
Fucks sake. Why is such rampant islamophobia acceptable?

Let's see if Sunak will act

I think there are a lot of Conservatives sticking their fingers in their ears right now. Sunak may well be one of them.

"I have no shortage of criticisms of Mayor Khan as regular viewers will know, but he is not an Islamist, he is not in the pockets of Islamists, and I completely disagree with anyone who says otherwise."

Not all Conservatives think Anderson has a point.
Or maybe some Conservatives want to be reelected.

Very much this

Bollocks the above gif was supposed to be added to this.

Wasn't even that good a gif

😏

How did I miss that Grant Shapps was present when the trident test failed. There’s their issue right there. The only worse people to have had there would have been Grayling or Raab.

It was a good gif.
I assumed it referred to panicky London conservatives shouting (bird like) Help!

My teenager's think smirky face denotes you've had a thorough seeing to! 🙈

Ok.
Every day is a school day.
<now too nervous to add any emoji, just in case I don't fully understand the meaning >

Apparently this 😍is only for lovers. This 😻is for friends. But that was 2021. It may have changed.
Also, punctuation is totes cringe. Only old people use capital letters.

Sorry.
Not helpful.
We need 2024 relevant advice.

( still means smiley right?)

Who knows. I'll ask
Also 😭means crying with laughter, not actual crying. 😂or 🤣 are old people emoji talk

I love having teenagers. It's hilarious every day. I told mine I had "mum rizz" a while back and they nearly died of embarrassment

In that case I am very guilty of old people emojis. 🤣

Could you ask them to write an emoji guide for old people?
