Just had the people from Hebden Bridge West Yorkshire on complaining that there have been 3 floods in the last 7 and there elected representatives don't give a toss.
They are totally entitled to complain but I notice that the area has voted conservative for the last 10 years.
Tory flaggellents... Well they can have a long soak in the ideology of individual responsibility, for living in a flood area. They develop some empathy for homeless, those experiencing Universal Credit etc.
 
Julian Smith sacked as NI secretary, despite getting Stormont up and running again, and achieving reproductive rights and marriage equality in NI. Best NIS we've had under this Tory regime. He was making a decent fist of it. Shows where Johnson's priorities lie. Revenge, and little else.

Hopefully the scruffy twit has shot himself in the foot there. As a former chief whip, I'd imagine Smith is pretty well-connected, and he also has a reputation for getting things done. Not someone you'd want to make an enemy of. If you were a Tory MP, that is.

Yay to McVey being sacked though. I hate Esther McVey.

Imagine voting for a party who spends 5 times more per head for flooding defences in the South because you don't like Jeremy Corbyn. Reap.Sow.

Not really sure what anyone could do when u live in a steep valley with a river running through it!
 



That was quite surprising.
not when you consider the cummings tactical playbook it isn't, he has shown that he is in no way interested in coherent messages or actual policies. Short stupid slogans to win over stupid voters with zero attention span

See a similar trend across the Atlantic. I think right wing politics can be easier to sell, especially in this age of misinformation. It’s a simpler narrative. Add in some throwaway racist lines and you’re onto a winner it seems
 


This is crazy, not only are they parroting lines like 4 year olds, they're parroting 2 proven misleading lies and the other one being police numbers that's only replacing what they cut

It’s the ultimate dumbing down of British politics on the same path that Trump has taken the Sherman’s.

A cynic might suggest that Steve Bannon had been involved in its inception.

Oh wait.

Populist garbage,chuck out soundbites continually and then lie through your teeth. Never backtrack on a lie.

Just look at the state of those gurning sycophants, he’s literally launched anyone who ever dared to challenge Dom’s strategy. I despair of what we’re becoming in this country.
 

I'm sure all the Tory voters who pledged they would hold the government to account will be along shortly to do nothing of the sort.
I imagine all Tory voters who all of a sudden became bastions of anti racism are now up in arms about the lack of progress in the investigation into islamophobia in the Conservative party also.
Either that or they’re hypocrites, who used racism in order to exhibit faux outrage. Which of course, is fairly abhorrent behaviour.
 


Maybe soon the bloke will realise that Johnson doesn't give a hoot about him. He would come and waft a mop about if it made him look better, but he does not care one jot for people like that gentleman. The sad thing is, you only have to look at Johnson's past to know that's the case, yet people were still taken in.
