And another one. Revenge being taken by the Johnson-loving membership on the MPs they thought were disloyal to their Prince. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was largely absent before she even went off on maternity. She would turn up for photo ops and point at large puddles, that’s the running joke with her. The main thing was she didn’t represent the town. That said I hope she isn’t the sacrifice for some other bellend being parachuted in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xann Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Quote A secretive organisation accused of collaborating with far-right activists has been operating out of the House of Lords for more than a decade, a cache of leaked documents suggests. The organisation, called the New Issues Group (NIG), includes the former Ukip leader Malcolm Pearson and the Tory former deputy speaker of the House of Lords Baroness Cox.

Genie Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Uh oh. Somebody is going to be in a spot of bother Quote Matt Hancock is alleged to have rejected COVID-19 testing advice for residents going into England's care homes while he was health secretary during the worst of the pandemic, according to a report based on thousands of leaked WhatsApp messages. The Daily Telegraph alleges that chief medical officer Professor Sir Chris Whitty had told Mr Hancock in April 2020 that there should be testing for "all going into care homes and segregation whilst awaiting a result". But the leaked messages suggest Mr Hancock rejected that advice, telling an aide that the move "muddies the waters", instead introducing mandatory testing just for those coming from hospitals. According to the investigation, he said: "Tell me if I'm wrong but I would rather leave it out and just commit to test and isolate ALL going into care from hospital. "I do not think the community commitment adds anything and it muddies the waters." He also expressed concerns that expanding care home testing could "get in the way" of the 100,000 daily test target he wanted to hit, the investigation said. The messages were leaked by journalist Isabel Oakeshott, who received them while working on Mr Hancock's Pandemic Diaries memoir. SkyNews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything else that contradicts that won't be seeing the light of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
