Too much to hope for really that Kizzy, a great pity however.
This doesn't look that good for this party that is hailed a paragon of virtue.

Always good to see the true colours coming through however.

Actually it doesn't,I felt Grant was a hopeless chairman of the party but he was a good Housing Minister and I actually like him.

I am not that sure he is the only one that should be caught up in this scandal and so take little pleasure in him being like a scapegoat at this time.
I think higher up the Party chain may be worth a good look at on this one too.

I thought bullying within the ranks was commonplace there were articles relating to aides of IDS and Gove regarding infighting months ago wasn't there?
This is the only time it actually drove one to suicide

'Lord Feldman is under pressure to quit as Tory chairman over the bullying and blackmail scandal engulfing the party, ahead of a Conservative board meeting on Monday that will look at ordering a full independent inquiry.

Feldman, a close friend of David Cameron, is facing questions over his handling of an investigation into election aide Mark Clarke, who was accused of bullying a young activist, Elliott Johnson, before his apparent suicide.'

Dropping like flies :/

Grant I feel is the scapegoat here really, obviously there is an investigation being done by the Party now, an independent one would have been better as the Father of the deceased son asked for.
I have a feeling Grant may come out of this better than where he has been left right now as to it.
