Just a reminder of Boris' knowledge of the Covid regulations in his response to Josephine (aged 7) in March 2020.

The Tory custom & practice,  default tactic of turning the menaces on anyone with influence who speaks out against their snakery has fairly rancid similarities with what might be expected of totalitarianist / dictatorial regimes of the present time and the past.  They'll probably be threatening to sell off the CofE.

 

 

 

Did some Tory MP not have a go at the Archbishop of Canterbury for "virtue signalling" over the weekend?

 

But isn't virtue signalling what Archbishops are supposed to do?

[WorldChampions1902]

@Footballfirst gonna be interesting to see so many backbenchers being forced to either back the POS, or stick by their morals and back the motion. No chance that the motion will be carried so Labour can then name and shame the Tories that back the POS.

It is though one more than the number of SNP sycophants who have ever challenged dear Nicola the Supreme Leader, about anything, ever.

I'm sure that is Labour's intention. Name and shame everyone who votes against referral and use it in subsequent election material.

 

I note that Chris Bryant has offered to recuse himself as chair of the standards committee as he has previously made a number of statements criticising the PM over partygate. Perhaps he feels that more Tories would be liable to vote for the motion in the knowledge that the review committee would be chaired by a Tory.

The Tories say "Lets kick the can down the road again".

 

The Labour motion already stated that the standards committee wouldn't carry out their investigation until the conclusion of the Met investigation.

 

The Tories are just looking to shut down any discussion of the matter, and save their MPs from the embarrassment associated with voting against the Labour motion.

It's almost like they're not prepared to let it be investigated and put to bed so they can get on with the job at hand? 

 

Surprising that.

While people might be thinking about the Police fines just now, the big problem is Sue Gray's report. From her summary I think it's going to be devastating.

At the current rate of progress of the Met's investigations, it seems highly unlikely to be completed before the local elections.  The amendment buys BoJo time and he will hope that stopping the Labour motion in its tracks avoids a negative impact on the May election.

 

A month or two's delay could equally work against BoJo if the May election results are bad for the Tories.  Their MPs may then be minded to view BoJo as an electoral liability going forward and either vote for a review or initiate a confidence vote via Graham Brady.

Rattled much? 

 

When you get past the affrontery of a member of this Tory government asking anyone to correct the record and actually read the letter and get to the 'Kremlin sympathiser' bit you realise where these amoral reptiles have got to. 

The Tories have taken nearly £3 million in 'Kremlin sympathy' and Spaffer made the son of a KGB colonel a Lord.

The aggression towards every person and organisation who threatens or challenges or speaks about the institutional deceit is quite striking.  They're basically in the foothills of complete intolerance of any dissent.  The very opposite of what Dowden proposes.

 

BBC

Channel 4

Independent scientific advisers

Archbishop of Canterbury

Her Majesty's opposition

 

All being menaced or warned off from singing the wrong tune.  Who next?  Put the whole press under government control?  Censor the OBR and BofE?  Privatise the civil service?

[Victorian]

The self-styled champions of free press have a remarkable record of disengagement from speaking to the free press.  Especially the harder hitting broadcast media such as Channel 4 News.

 

Odd.

Starmer still hasn’t had a proper apology from Johnson over his Savile outburst, where he accused Starmer of not prosecuting Savile because he was too busy going after journalists. His apologists only tried to deny he said it, initially, then that he didn’t mean it in the way it came over.

He clearly and unambiguously accused Starmer of turning a blind eye to Savile, in a fit of rage. He lost control of himself when pressured. It was a completely false accusation blurted out in temper.

I’m fairly sure he almost repeated the slur during PMQs today, when denying he criticised the BBC’s coverage of Putin in Ukraine, but managed to stop himself this time.

I’m no fan of Starmer, but it’s hypocritical of any Conservative to think Johnson now deserves an apology from anybody over unsubstantiated claims against him.

This government has been markedly reluctant to even consider the demand side of the energy market by attempting energy efficiency.  But even the biggest energy corporates are now crying out for it in order to head off some of the poverty carnage to come.

 

Beggars belief that even the commercially advantaged are more interested in social justice and basic human rights.

Mmmm

I think they might just realise that it's a question of can't pay won't pay.

So looking for government(us our money)

Perhaps if they were serious they'd announce a freeze of dividends etc(not sure if they can)

They know most or at least an awful lot wont be able to pay.

Unfortunately the poorest will have to top up their prepay meters.

 

The government even this shower of scumbags will be forced to do something.

But please don't imagine the robbing bstartz at the likes of Scottish Power give a single fek about social justice.

I'm not sure she does on the whole. A handful, sure, but the majority love her as they know she doesn't want independence and even if she did isn't skilled enough to deliver it. The only people who should be wound up by her are those in favour of independence. For that reason, she does indeed wind me right up

We'll see, I guess. If someone can't deliver it against a backdrop of Brexit and Tory chaos then I'm left to arrive at two conclusions:

 

1. Doesn't want it 

2. Isn't capable of delivering it 

 

 

I think it's a bit of both. If independence is delivered, it won't be under Sturgeon, of that I'm certain.

She doesn't want to go for the throat until sure they'll win. It's pretty understandable really, lose the next one and a bunch of people WILL be scunnered on the conversation.
