No one who spells it that way is worth the time of day. He comes over as being posh, thick and nasty. Arguably, placing a bet is the most interesting thing he's ever done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve chosen not to house people It's a point of principle with the Conservative Party - housing isn't something they consider to be a government responsibility. It's a need that should be exploited for profit (by them). Homelessness is good because the possibility of losing everything will keep people desperate to stay employed (by them) at all costs. Their only downside to homelessness is having to see disgusting smelly subhumans trying to find somewhere to fulfil basic needs like sleep or defecation, and it's mindblowing that they attempt to criminalise even that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 St Boris got Brexit done and nearly died of Covid don't you know... People used to think John Major was useless.

scottsdad Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Quote Faaris Khan, a 20-year-old from Surrey Heath, joined the party when he was 17 after learning about it in his politics A-level class. He quickly became chair of his local Young Conservative branch. Khan was, in fact, the only member of this group https://www.theguardian.com/politics/article/2024/jul/13/meet-the-young-tories-fighting-to-change-their-old-party-where-do-we-go-now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Recently, Waddington attended a dinner for about 250 Conservative party members in his local area. “I looked around the room and thought: ‘I might be the only person in this room still alive in 20 years’,” he says. “So in that eventuality, where will the money come from, the outreach, the campaigning?” He thinks that this ageing membership affects policy decisions, too. Looks like he's planning on killing them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
