BFTD Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 To a man, Conservative MPs and MSPs were prefects who deliberately misunderstood everything ever said to them so they'd have an excuse to shop the oiks to the head of year. "...no, I don't think being told to go and boil your head quite meets the standard for terrorist threats, Stephen, and being nicknamed 'Juan' really isn't the same as deadnaming..." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEADOWXI Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Not even a pretence this is anything other than the last gifts of a corrupt paid for regime, Mohamed Mansour: Rishi Sunak faces criticism after Tory donor given knighthood - BBC News Rishi Sunak is facing criticism after a major Conservative Party donor was given a knighthood. Businessman Mohamed Mansour, a senior treasurer for the party, has been honoured for his business, charity and political service. Last year he gave £5m, at the time the party's biggest donation since 2001. Labour has accused the prime minister of showing "blatant disrespect for the office he should feel privileged to hold". Sir Mohamed was given a knighthood alongside Farming Minister Mark Spencer and Shipley's Conservative MP Philip Davies, as well as damehoods for former ministers Tracey Crouch and Harriett Baldwin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
