Just received a load of letters through the post addressed to G Brady. Not sure whether to redirect or throw them in the bin!3

Interesting! It was pretty much in line with what I saw him say on BBC2 and C4 yesterday.hawksmoor said:

“I’ve been sat up in bed for hours, whisky on the bedside table, soft jazz playing in the background, trying to think if I’ve worked with a more idiotic bunch of self centred bastards in my nearly 50 years as a MP.
Nope, still can’t think of any. Time for another bottle.”
Says it all really.

They're simply driving the feckless to suicide, preferably in a ditch where hard-working proper folk can't see them. Waste disposal program par excellence! Bravo ToriesMountsfieldPark said:Quote: The UK government has inflicted “great misery” on its people with “punitive, mean-spirited, and often callous” austerity policies driven by a political desire to undertake social re-engineering rather than economic necessity, the United Nations poverty envoy has found.
Philip Alston, the UN’s rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, ended a two-week fact-finding mission to the UK with a stinging declaration that despite being the world’s fifth largest economy, levels of child poverty are “not just a disgrace, but a social calamity and an economic disaster”.
And there's a lot more like that...

But what else do you expect from a party where "must be a sociopath" is part of the job description for MPs?
Speaking of which august institution, the UN rapporteur report doesn't seem to have made it onto their News website yet. Funny, that. All eyes on the Tory wankfest.2 -

The whole political landscape is exploding, I think there’s about 6 MP’s I’d trust to run more than a bath. We’re all fecked. The Tories can do one, except only labour will replace them and they’ll be as bad so they can do one also.
I live in hope that the sensible from across parties get together and form something new, but don’t see that happening anytime soon, so it’s all down to @bobmunro3 -

I'm his PR guy until I get unceremoniously sacked after it comes to light I sent a series of emails to Katrien over her running of the club from Jan 2016 - June 2016, that the tabloid press brand the behaviour of a stalker. Bob can no longer have me as the face of his campaign and regrettably has to let me go. In a further twist he appoints ibborg at the same time as ibborg gets made mod. Down an out I apply to not 606 and see out my days bragging of my 13k lols to 5 other blokes on an internet forum

It gets lost in all the Brexit chaos but...

...many other things are being fucked up. Clearly the money that could be used for recruiting more staff and having better standards in place is written down as profit.2 -
Well, they are the Tory & unionist party.0 -
Just in case anybody forgot that they are the party of economic competence.

So who is going to replace May then?
I noticed Johnson’s intervention yesterday in the Withdrawal debate didn’t go too well. Gove has been doing his best snake oil salesman impression and will have the Murdoch papers backing. Depends if they still want a Brexiteer.
Hard to say really. They are all pretty sh**.0 -

They will still be looking for a new leader though. With a bit of luck they will split and destroy themselves.ShootersHillGuru said:

Nigel’s looking for a new political home. Time for him to return to his roots?1 -
I think he will be heading up a new party based on 'his' UKIP. It will be a natural home for any number of Hard Brexit/ERG Tories if they have the guts to split. Said it before and I will say it again. "Breaks my heart to see the Tories tearing themselves apart".Chaz Hill said:https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/dec/05/ukip-islamophobic-nigel-farage-resigning-party?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

I can't be the only one who has noticed through the current political crisis, but the Prime Minister has been getting a sympathetic press bordering on bias. Where I think she is being ridiculously stubborn, others see her as being stoic. When politicians of all parties, including her own, are making fair criticisms of her, you get the interviewers saying - you have to admire her resiliance and grit whatever your politics. Sorry, but I can't see anything to admire - she has got to this inevitable point by trying to fob off two opposite sides within her party - the can has been kicked down the road. The negotiations were primarily with her own party who couldn't agree what they wanted, rather than the EU. Then something was botched together at the last minute, totally different to what we were promised.
Don't forget, she called the election that created the extreme difficulties in the first place because she thought she could wipe Labour off the political map.
I think history will judge her as one of the worst prime ministers this country has ever had. I don't admire her at all!8 -
They do that. Theresa May is a good bloke kind of thing, steadfastetc. She chose to call that election salivating for long term power at a time she thought she (strong and stable) could give Corbyn (coalition of chaos) a kicking.
Tories are like that, a crust often hiding princes and princesses of darkness, look at Jeremy Hunt for example, as for that Attorney General the other day doing Donald Sindens farewell performance, do me a favour. Evil Tories outnumber OK ones by about ten to one in my view.2 -
A “dream ticket” of Sajid Javid and Andrea Leadsom being mentioned in the Scum as a possibility of taking over from May. 🤪🤪🤪

As expected papers today full of 'leading' tories more interested in jockeying for leadership than sorting out Brexit clusterf**k.
FFS Liz Truss now fancying her chances I see. How do these deluded idiots get anywhere near running the country?1 -
It gets worse. Esther McFester fancying her chances now!
I thought Andrew Marr pulled Johnson apart pretty well yday. He certainly didn't look too happy as the programme faded out.
Any of our Conservative minded contributors got any preferences for their next leader?1 -
It amazes me how she actually may believe she has a chance!1

I thought Marr should have pressed Boris the Vile on his detailed solution to the Irish border if there is no backstop or trade agreement.
I liked it that Marr reminded Boris the Vile that he had plunged British citizen Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe deeper into her Iranian jail hell. Boris response was that there are/were things going on the rest of us don't know about and implied that as a result we should shut up about it.
He is a Tory and leaver. Axiomatically Tories and Leavers have allied themselves to this man.
That is their choice, but for me he makes my skin crawl, he has the scabies effect on me. This is a man so rich he forgot about £50k or so he ought to have told Parliament about. Anyway reason and facts don't cut it with regard to Boris, those who love him would happily consume his dung because he is him, even if he was pulling out their nails one by one.
