Genie Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Can they overcome the final amendment? Quote The Lords backed a requirement that Rwanda can only be declared a safe country if Home Secretary James Cleverly first consults an independent monitoring body about its status. He would then have to make a statement to Parliament. No independent body will agree it’s safe will they? The whole point of the plan is that it’s an unsafe shit hole. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That credits him with actually being good at something, he's a tit but in the tit league he definitely plays for the Witch's Team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meregreen Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 Rayner is too clever by half for Dowden. She spiked his guns completely by mentioning her housing issue immediately. You could see him visibly wilt as he cracked a line that she had already preempted. Guy was incapable of going off script. And he is the best they’ve got. They’re toast. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have had more respect for him if he's had broken out into the Umbongo song. If I was in his shoes very fibre of my body would be crying out to do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted April 26 VT Supporter Share Posted April 26 Quote Liz Truss’s book about her 49-day stint as prime minister sold 2,228 copies in the UK during its first week on sale, after a wall-to-wall promotional media blitz. Ten Years to Save the West: Lessons from the Only Conservative in the Room, combines an account of Truss’s time in office with a call to arms for the political right. Nielsen sales data puts Truss’s effort in 70th place on last week’s bestsellers’ list, outsold by titles such as the Ultimate Air Fryer Cookbook and More Confessions of a Forty-something F**k Up. Guardian If you click into the article, about halfway down, the guardian have an amusing little line when comparing her book sales to that of Blair’s and Cameron’s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can get in the **** bin with the rest of them. Shame on Labour for welcoming him in. I'd assumed that it was a massively cynical "stand as a winning Labour candidate at the next election rather than a losing Tory candidate" move (hello Christian Wakeford), but looks like he's standing down anyway. So I'd be happy to give his motives at least, the benefit of the doubt. So while I'm sympathetic to your point above, there are presumably going to be quite a lot of people who were previously Team Blue who are now going to be Team Red. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
