Is there actually?!
The backbenchers have been on the verge of revolt for a while (right?) and that's who makes the bulk of 1922... |

there isn't the will to get rid of Boris yet, the apology was all he needed to do.
Whether he is still in position at the next GE is another thing entirely though |

Whether he was there for 25 minutes or 250 minutes he’s just as responsible ![]() This is probably the 3/4th time in the past month the conservatives have been exposed as flouting their own rules I look back at the Sarah Everard case where said victim was deceived into thinking she had broken rules regarding covid Last edited by glib; 12-01-2022 at 05:57 PM. |

I know in ALL parties there are the majority of people who are decent and fair minded. I've also told you several times that MPs of ALL parties. Do go into politics to hopefully change things for the better and for the right reasons. I don't know what your possibly sarcastic reference may be. However it's the Party system that stops most MPs from even just voting with their conscience. Parliamentary procedure and other elements too. They are all human. Plus until I was 18 I was a Con supporter. I voted Lib Dem to hopefully see a coalition in 2010. So I can and DO see the good in all parties. Even though now I've found my more social conscience home In and with Labour. Although I'm sure I'll have many complaints and strong arguments at times in the party. However when there's a leader who acts dictatorial and rides over others feelings. Like when he threw out long standing and more moderate MPs from the party for daring to be against his plans in 2019. Who then deceives and lies to parliament and the people. Who was found to have acted unlawfully with power by the 2 highest courts of the UK. Well such a man wouldn't get my admiration or support. I don't and never have disliked the Conservative party, I DO dislike intensely all its done and stood for in its heartless policies towards the poorest, weakest, vulnerable, sick and disabled with the Lib Dems and alone since 2010. I'd have had no similar dislike for the Thatcher or Major governments. However I was only born in 1992. You'd actually be possibly surprised if you ever bothered to find out, that many Conservative supporters and members admire too many in the Labour party. I've canvassed in elections, niggling at Conservative canvassers who did the same with me. Then we've all gone for coffee afterwards. You'd be amazed how many Conservative and Labour supporters and members are friends and in some cases close friends. You slate politicians as awful people. That's not the case at all. I know many and I believe most from ALL parties are decent people, unlike your view of politicians. Most try their very best for little thanks. It's policies I judge parties on, even my own party. I detest the policies to the vulnerable,sick and disabled from this present government. Which is why I slam it more. Even moreso with this dangerously deceitful and compulsive liar the Cons have inflicted on the Nation as PM. I hope that may again explain why this Labour member and voter can see good in other parties. Including the Conservative party !! Last edited by joeysteele; 12-01-2022 at 06:08 PM. |

Where on earth did I say past Labour governments didn't make any mistakes. I dislike Blair only very slightly less than I dislike this PM. I was ONLY 15 when Blair left parliament however. I even stated, I'd be likely having battles in the Labour party as a member now. However with your view as a general one that all politicians are corrupt. There's no way I'll even make any more attempts to debate with you. Just please however don't twist or add to my words to have them say what you want them to, when they clearly don't. I know there's good and decent people as MPs and I'll stand by my words that it is the vast majority of them too from ALL Parties. This PM however is no way one of the good and decent individuals, and in my opinion never has been as to his whole career in politics. Not a chance will I ever think him so. This issue and his joke of an apology is an insult to all who lost loved ones unnecessarily. Who couldn't be with loved ones as they died, couldn't have church services, it had to be at graveside with ONLY 10 to 15 mourners permitted. It may be usually good to say sorry, however sorry doesn't always make things right. In my view that's definitely so in this case. |

All hail the Moyesiah
|
Does anyone in the country or the Tory party really have the appetite for a leadership contest and all the instability of a new PM? There's enough going on right now without all that chaos
Accept the apology, ensure he knows he's in last chance saloon and move on if I'm a Tory MP imo |

That Metro one is very appropriate.
Because he's ONLY said a kind of conditional sorry because he's been caught out. He wouldn't be saying sorry at all if this hadn't been shown to have taken place. That's why in my view, he should resign. If he had a shred of decency he would. However it's clear he hasn't a shred of decency. |

Given that you are a Labour voter ... on that basis why didn’t all the hundreds of Labour MPs resign after they were caught out thieving in the expenses scandal ?? Didn’t they all just give the money back and incredibly kept their jobs ... oh and no apologies as I recall .. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |
