I suggest the are over complicating things a tad. I'd suggest they really don't know what they are doing. On either side of the Tory Party. They all know what they want but can't say it because it's either criminal, unelectable or at odds with Right Thinking (often all three). That's where the problem lies, getting rid of May is easy, they could do it today but they all want different things which are often incompatible with each other. It’s just jostling for position in some it’s a knockout type game where the contestants trampoline themselves towards a greasy pole and see who can claim the highest position before falling off 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bickster Posted September 13, 2018 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted September 13, 2018 Tory MEPs voting against the article 7 manoeuvre of the Hungarian PM yesterday. Just for clarification purposes that’s the fella who waged an anti-Semitic campaign against George Soros and refers to refugees as Muslim Invaders. Oh and he's a bit dodgy on the financials too I presume the BBCand the Daily Heil will be all over this today... oh it Appears to have passed them by The PM says she didn't know which way her party were going to vote on this... pretty much in charge of that party aren’t you love Edit: But the Hungarian PM says we should get a good and fair deal from Brexit so that’s ok then 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every weekend I buy the papers and there's a column called 'exonorated dead Labour leaders that definitely weren't ever Russian traitors'. Next week's Sunday supplement will doubtless lead with a picture of a tory that wasn't a paedo. Hey, not saying anybody was, saying the opposite, just putting paedo and dead tory in the same front page headline. Paid soviet stooge, it's patent rubbish. As though Foot and Trump would have anything in common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression someone had written a book and they were commenting on it , you know in the same way VT gleefully lapped up the Cameron and the pig story that was serialised and reported on in the papers The left jumping on it as an attempt to smear Corbyn is straight out of the Serena victim play book Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Now you mention it, I can completely see now how a dead Labour leader not having been the spy we didn't think he was is obvious front page main headline news at such a quiet time in politics. Thank god that scoop came along to save them from a blank page. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god that scoop came along to save them from a blank page. It was One newspaper out of eleven , the one being the Times who were sued for libel previously (so probably that is their agenda) and they also doing a more in-depth piece on the book ... Your argument about important times in politics would be slightly more valid had the other 10 publications not gone with such vital political topics as , strictly come dancing , Lilly Allen and Fred the shed Quote MI6 believed the former Labour leader Michael Foot was a paid Soviet informant, The Times reports.

That was all a year ago, wasn't it? Briton, Janner etc.? Having said that, (not having read the Times) it's hardly front page headline stuff on Michael Foot. It's not even new "News". Wasn't there a load of fuss, well a bit of a fuss about MI6 investigating all sorts of historical left wing politicians in the news several years ago?

Might have been nicer for them to use that front page to apologise for last year's 'Muslims stealing Christian babies' story that turned out to be complete bullshit, but hey ho.

Chindie Posted September 21, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted September 21, 2018 Announced earlier they would decline some of the Windrush citizens applications because they fail the current 'good character' requirement due to convictions. This despite them having been told they were citizens for decades. I'm sure this wasn't quietly rolled out in the aftermath of Mays meltdown on purpose. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
