It's basically implying that all trans people are only trans so they can be sex pests in toilets. It's pointless too. A sign on a door isn't going to stop a sex pest being a sex pest. Look at Downing Street as an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted July 12, 2022 Moderator Share Posted July 12, 2022 So 8 through to the next (absolutely pointless) stage of getting to 30 signatures Sunak, Truss, Tugendhat, Braverman, Zahawi, Mordaunt, Hunt and Badenoch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially seeing it’s in secret. I assume anyone can change backing at any point later on even if they sign for 1 candidate now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get the need for this second stage Personally I'd but them all in the Colloseum and make them fight to the death 3 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badenoch is a right wing nutter on principal Braveman is just a lunatic with no brains Truss is the continuity Johnson candidate I think (and watch her rise in the grassroots standings when this becomes apparent) Mordaunt is just a Union Jack Sunak appears to be a very Marmite character in the party and the grassroots Zahawi, Tugendhat and Hunt are also rans I think (as is Braverman fwiw) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suspect one of the extremist? Truss for more of the same nonsense might be fun and she is not clever enough to hide all of the necessary lies I suspect. I wouldn't say I follow politics indiscriminately, but the fact that I barely know any of these names shows what a complete farce this all is. But yeah, one of these 8 is going to be the PM. Eurgh.

a m ole Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 It’s going to be Sunak, which is hilarious considering he was also fined by the police for lockdown law breaking, the shit with his wife, the current state of the economy and that he only became known because of the pandemic and being able to hand out money to the public. Silver spoon **** without any real convictions. Look forward to his NFT being released though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam-AVFC Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Can't say I mind if it is Sunak. I'm surprised by how many of the literal man in the street I've heard slagging him off over the last week. There's clearly some big interests pushing back on him though. There appears to be quite the bot being waged saying every bad decision he made was to deliberately undermine Johnson.

Ingram85 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I think I heard Badenoch saying something along the lines of public services are failing because they waste millions money on paying someone in a position like looking after staff well being instead of just getting on with the job. She really is a nasty **** witch isn’t she. Stressed staff don’t need support they just need to get on with things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking from experience I reckon they'd love some of the civil service HR if they realised what spiteful, inflexible words removed they can be.
