Who knows, it's a ploy Gov's often use.Originally posted by Elite_Pie View Post
They start off with: ''These cuts are gonna be bad, like Biblical bad, like Armageddon, fire and brimstone bad''.
Then they turn out to be not half as bad as expected and the suckers that we are feel we've won some sort of victory, when in fact they are still taking more from us.

Another one bites the dust! I wonder who Suella Braverman had in mind when she wrote this:
Pretending we haven't made mistakes, carrying on as if everyone can't see that we have made them, and hoping that things will magically come right is not serious politics. I have made a mistake; I accept responsibility; I resign.Comment

Truss is a real piece of work, isn't she?Originally posted by Elite_Pie View Post
Replacing Kwarteng & Braverman with Hunt and Schapps is part of a crude attempt to save her own skin.
She thought she could govern from the right. It was a disaster. Now she's running for cover.
It's great to see another fruit bat depart today, but hopefully all wings of that accursed party will hate Truss equally and she'll be booted out before the month's out.Comment

Quite funny how quiet eejits like Suckerman are totally silent whilst the Tory party is exploding all around. Country fecked, politics in the gutter…
Waits for the expected “If Corbyn…” reply. Couldn’t have been any worse than the past few weeks!!!
Even the clowns at the local circus would have to try hard to look as stupid as the Tory party at the minute. Shame it means their incompetence leaves us all fecked.Comment

Suella Braverman's resignation letter is a grenade that's been thrown into the mix.
The letter makes abundantly clear that the now former home secretary is furious with the government, and furious at Liz Truss.
There's a heavy hint in there that the prime minister should be taking responsibility for the mistakes she's made. It was only yesterday Truss was telling the European Research Group of Brexiteer MPs that she had made a mistake. It sounds to me like the former home secretary is suggesting the prime minister should resign.
Braverman has some allies in the party who might not be happy about this, and the PM clearly thought this was an important issue because she cancelled a high-profile visit this afternoon, where she was supposed to be doing some more media to explain her relaunch.Comment

A fascinating lesson in to how to resign… read between the lines here… Deliberately send an email from your private account.. (Really?)
Then you have to say “Oh dear, Oh my, oo-er… I seem to have blundered, I’d better do the honourable thing and resign. 😀”
Ps, In paragraph 2 I’m telling it as it really is
You couldn’t make this sh1t up.Comment

This may or may not be true:
Senior Labour MP Chris Bryant urged the deputy speaker to launch an investigation into an incident in the voting lobby in Parliament. Bryant says he saw MPs being "physically manhandled". He accuses government whips - who enforce discipline - of bullying and harassing his Tory colleagues over the vote tonight.
If it's false, Chris Bryant should apologise.
If it's true, Liz Truss should resign and call a general election.Comment

Internecine warfare within the Tory Party is way above what Labour achieved in Corbyn's day. Right and left wing despise one another.Originally posted by Elite_Pie View Post
Braverman is thick as pigs h i t and I believe the email she sent was a genuine oversight rather than a carefully plotted departure.
All of this crap follows from Brexit which - as I have said before - will go down in the history books as the event that precipitated the UK's downfall. We are screwed for at least a generation.Comment

So chief and deputy whip have now resigned for the Tories.
You couldn’t make this up if you tried!Comment

Wow sidders, I suppose you think covid happened as a result of Brexit 🤣🤣🤣🤣. It was all Britain's fault and not the lovely CCP.
It would be heartwarming to think a Labour government and a return to the EU would make everything in the garden rosey, but these are scary times.
You will own nothing and be happy.Comment

Surely this has to be another nail in the coffin of Liz Truss:
Senior Conservative MP Charles Walker tells the BBC that after this evening's events in the voting lobby, he's livid and has run out of patience with his party and his colleagues. Visibly shaken, Walker says it is "inexcusable" and there is "no coming back" from this for the government. "I think it's a shambles and a disgrace," Walker says, adding that the current government has damaged his party's reputation.
He says he has had enough of "talentless" people being in cabinet and says he hopes it was worth it for those who backed Liz Truss for a red box or a seat around the cabinet table. Walker, an MP for 17 years, says many fellow Tory backbenchers are frustrated by the current cabinet and afraid for their jobs. "Patience has reached the limit," he adds.
This is from a long serving, moderate Tory MP. Truss is now 1/4 to go this year, even those odds look tempting.Comment
