Absolute bonkers but I tell you this the hypocritical msm haven't had a massive deal about this yet will go on and on about starmer.
This guy wants to be leader of the tory party and has basically shamed our soldiers with no evidence all because he wants out of the echr.
These tories are bloody bonkers
Yet folks attack labour seriously

I can only assume tat either he wanted to put our soldiers lives at risk or he is monumentally stupid. Both is also an option.

He seems to have reinvented himself from being a relatively moderate, centrist Tory into parading himself as a raging right winger. Presumably this is motivated by blind ambition rather than any real conviction - he thinks that's what the Tory membership want (and tbf, he's probably right) and he assumes that the electorate will be attracted to Reform Mark 2 as well. He appears to have learned from the Boris school of politics that you just need to say and do whatever you think will make you most popular.

The last thing this country needs is yet another self serving politician without any real principles, but sadly, it looks like that's exactly what we're going to get.

It’s basically a competition to be the worst possible person.

Well, I must say, they're all doing exceedingly well. Stiff competition indeed!

He couldn't give a single instance of this happening, though, when interviewed in R4 this morning. He just kept saying he was quoting Ben Wallace.

Crikeyalmighty · 01/10/2024 14:54

He's an absolute fruitcake who will say any old populist shit to win back votes off the Reform brigade. This is a guy who has had a very dodgy history with actually taking money for influence

Isn't it just!! No chance of them pulling themselves together as a party if this lot of idiots are the best they can come up with.

Remember he was the guy that made a lovely cartoon murial in an immigration centre for the kids be covered up because can't be nice to them can we? Is this what appeals to the party members

i.e. "a circle jerk"
