Billy Jean King Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 The press will be clearing the way for Boris. A man so far up Trump's arse that his tongue stinks of ginger wig.This. The Tory press basically smearing the candidates who they see as a threat to their chosen one. As poisonous as the party itself, would stab their granny in the back if she was standing in their way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Etonians hate each other - especially when competing for the "glittering prizes" that their tutors told them was their birthright. A quick call from the top OE brass will secure Rory's withdrawal. He will be told to put the college's reputation before his personal ambition. And expected to do as he's told! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I despise Tories, all Tories. But I’ve been around long enough to realise that traditionally they are a ‘broad church’ that will on occasion move to the extremes. I think we are witnessing the present Conservatory Party being pulled/pushed to an extreme form of itself. It’s a form which I believe will be rejected by the electorate. Despite all the ‘Marxist’ and ‘anti-Semitist’ slurs we might, as a result, see the election of a genuine left-of-centre Labour Government. Their Achilles Heel will be the significant number of Labour MPs who are not socialist by any stretch and who will happily undermine such a Government. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 So Johnson won’t pay the EU the money we are obliged and have already agreed to pay them. I wondered how long it would be before the ambitious b*****ds club would start promising unicorns. Let’s wait and see the response from the rest of the professional liars as they try to outunicorn each other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The key point is that Davidson has publicly backed an outsider with little or no chance of winning. Her relationship with the new PM, whoever wins, will be strained from day one. Old Etonians tend to hold grudges against anyone who slights them. David Cameron is a classic example and Johnson seems to be another. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop Briggs Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Just now, MixuFixit said: Pish, she knows Javid will get a cabinet post of some sort & probably contest the leadership another 3 or 4 times over the next 25 years and offer her protection. She's not making the mistake of backing a backbench sex pest this time. I would not bet on Johnson giving Javid anything. Like, Cameron, he surrounds himself with his chums. Davidson and Johnson hate each other after vitriolic exchanges during the EU referendum. Like Cameron, Johnson is a vengeful character. Davidson will be lucky to survive as leader if he wins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bold Rover Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Gove's biggest crime is writing disapprovingly of drug users at the very time he was using. Hypocrisy > drug misuse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypocrisy > drug misuse. Boris isn't going to get away with saying he might have tried to snort icing sugar but sneezed instead, he's admitted taking coke in the past. When he finally comes out of his PR guarded bunker he'll have to respond to yes or no questions knowing that if he lies, somebody is sure to grass him up. Here's an interview he did when he was running for Mayor. Quote Are you prepared for what’s going to be slung at you as this election campaign gets under way? Your past is going to be raked over. What about drugs? In an interview, you said, ‘I’ve snorted coke, but I sneezed.’ I thoroughly disagree with drugs, and You smoked dope before you went to university. That’s true, but the stuff you and I may have smoked is not the same as what the kids are having now. I think skunk and this stuff is very, very dangerous. Well, you’re a father and you’ve got four children. I don’t want my kids having drugs. Some of the kids at their school may be taking drugs, Boris, even if it’s a posh school. I don’t want kids to take drugs. And I think, as a society, we need to be very rigid about this. So, how do you lay down the law at home? [Sighs.]. You can sense if something is up and I don’t want to talk about it, actually. But, as far as I’m aware, there’s nothing to worry about at the moment. You said in interviews that you’ve snorted coke. Well, that was when I was 19. It all goes to show that, sometimes, it’s better not to say anything. https://www.marieclaire.co.uk/news/celebrity-news/janet-street-porter-interviews-boris-johnson-192043 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypocrisy > drug misuse. Actually, it's not. Gove has admitted to being a serial class A drug user. It's just a matter of time before a Labour or Lib Dem reports him to the Police. There is no statute of limitations and he's admitted the offences. The Police would have a duty to arrest him. Johnson has admitted to using coke too. No more visits to the US for them at the very least! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could come up with a case of just one of the many people who have admitted taking drugs in the past in their memoirs or in an interview, and have been prosecuted for it retrospectively, I might think your weren't full of shite up to your eyeballs. As you say, Johnson has admitted taking cocaine in the past and has been freely traveling to the US over the years, so that part is likely shite too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
