Reform will do themselves in. There will be one too many racist outbursts, a few scandals, and they'll die away like the BNP did after they had a brief moment of electoral success in the early 00's.


Maybe, but I wouldn’t have thought so in the next cycle.

The current MPs have a knack of staying just on the safe side of the line.

Jenrick is the former housing minister who overrode local planning laws to green light a Tory donor £1,000.0000.000 housing scheme, saving an additional £50,000,000 a couple of days before a community levy was introduced.

Mind you, someone gave Starmer glasses so they’re all the same apparently 😉

Starmer had more than glasses. a lot more.

A person thieving a purse with £20 in it and a person thieving a wallet with £1000 in it, makes them both thieves IMO.

Kemi no gaffes Badenoch or Robert Honest Bob Jenrick. What a time to be alive. Good government requires strong opposition so this isn't good.

How far can you push that, though?

I’ve had a speeding ticket, Harold Shipman killed 284 people.

We’re both by definition lawbreakers.

I’d argue it’s not the same though.

Stealing a penny sweet and robbing a bank are both illegal. Not comparable IMO.

What has Starmer done that’s comparable to the Jenrick episode above?

A thief and a murderer are two different crimes, ones a thief and one is obviously a murderer, and to compare them is a pretty ludicrous way to try and win a debate.

Both crimes, though.

In the same way comparing freebies to doing favours for doners that eventually have to be reversed by the high court is ludicrous.

I don’t approve of many of the freebies at all and I’m pretty disappointed Labour have made a hash of their first hundred days, but to suggest the level of dodgy news are the same isn’t right.

When he was running for election, Starmer called out sleaze and gifts for favours in the ranks of the conservative politicians, then as soon as he gets elected, he does exactly the same, albeit on a smaller scale, but, if he hadn't been found out early in his term of office, who knows how much and how deep the corruption would have gone, the conservatives had 14 years to fill their boots.

Starmer is a thief and complete and utter hypocrite.

I don’t condone Starmer accepting the gifts for 1 minute, but let’s put things in perspective. The £107k’s worth of gifts goes back about 5 years to 2019 and apart from the omissions in relation to his wife most of the donations were registered correctly.
I don’t think it was right for Starmer to accept these for 1 minute, but we’re talking about a 5 year period, I don’t think this is anywhere near the scale of what the Conservatives were raking in. Boris was looking at £200k for doing his flat out!

As I’ve highlighted previously, Cameron changed the rules (that Blair introduced to ensure greater transparency) thereby avoiding the requirement for complete disclosure of gifts etc received by ministers reducing scrutiny etc etc.
In the last 12 months 141 Tory MPs received £359,891 in free gifts, including tickets paid for by the water industry - the fact MP’s are taking gifts from water companies really concerns me given the precarious state some of the water companies are in and the crises ahead.

I do get the feeling that Badenoch is the right person at the wrong time in exactly the same way that William Hague was.

Both of them utterly capable, easily confident people who did or might get the leadership earlier than necessary. Both will be barking at a Labour Govt with a significant majority and held in absurdly high regard in comparison to their achievements. Both may not become Prime Minister.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Is there still a Tory party ?

Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.
