Sharpening their knives while taking care not to implicate themselves? Gove has been in hiding for months on end, the last Gove story I remember was him pissed in an Aberdeen night club But yes, absolutely correct. The people who have been wheeled out have also been strictly second division with the exception of Raab who really should be answering his own questions over the evacuation of Kabul and he evenmanaged to f*** his bit up as the pussycat that is Andrew Marr even managed to get him to say that if a party took place, it broke the law Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Position untenable. How many times have we seen/heard it, nothing will change because those that can actually influence change have their noses in the same trough as Boris. There’ll be some kind of crisis to distract the media over the next 48 hours I’ll bet, perhaps they’ll just ramp up the scare tactics on the new virus mutation.

Davkaus Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 PMQs will certainly follow the usual template as well. "The public don't want to hear about this, Mr Speaker, while Labour are going on about what happened a year ago, we're making sure things are safe for this Christmas. Building back better, some guff in latin, and a joke about Peppa Pig world. Wibble." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
