I'm still not entirely sure Gullis and Adam the GOT podcast guy aren't the same person.

I’d forgotten about him

I’d forgotten about him

He's of military age so I imagine he is busy elsewhere

Sunak says he's not worried about the polls.
Well, that's a big fat lie, isn't it?

The fixers who made £98m from the Tories’ VIP lane - Good Law Project

The government claims its Covid procurement was all above board. So why did companies spend millions of pounds on brokers who knew Tories?

Isn't that Liz Truss down there?
No, it's just a turd.

The lettuce is there in her place, obviously.

Oh those poor Tories, never having been allowed a crack at the whip despite winning 4 elections (comment lifted from ConsHome, nobody on here I'd hope):

Of the last 14 years only a couple have ACTUALLY been under an unencumbered government. The first FIVE were hobbled by being in coalition with the libdems who DID have real power. Then we had the Brexit referendum as a distraction followed by THREE YEARS of the BLOB refusing to accept the result of the referendum. then we had Covid for a couple of years taking HUGE bites from the economy followed by the Ukraine war inflating energy prices and costing yet more billions. Why do so many commentators ignore the rules of cause and effect?

I hate to think of the parlous state we would be in if Labour had been in power over these years and greatly fear the disaster they would cause if elected next month - our fields covered with solar panels and windmills - open doors for immigrants - voting age reduced to 16 - the end of women's sports - a socialist dystopia awaits.

So to summarise, you can't blame the Tories for anything!

2010-2015: The Tories had to kowtow to their Lib Dem coalition masters
2016: There just happened to be this distracting Brexit referendum malarky - who could have seen that coming?
2016-2019: The 'Remainer blob' were in charge, so those Tories were thwarted again from running the country
2019: Boris wins big and gets to be World King for a few months. The people rejoice!
2020-2022: That darn Covid getting in the way and stopping the Tories making any decision again
2022-2024: The Ukraine war! You guessed it, the Tories stymied again

Other governments apparently get to rule without being affected by world events or their own brash stupidity, so seems it's unfair the Tories should have to govern within reality.

Polls have Reform cutting into the cons. They must be experiencing squeaky bum time.
