The charm, the magic, the charisma were well polished – and this is as good as the man gets on best behaviour after weeks of behind-the-scenes training. If you puzzle as to how this man, unfit for every office he has held, can be about to sweep into Downing Street, his performance today is the answer. His snake oil of choice is optimism, so miserably lacking in politics now, radiating out of him like sunshine. All fake, all sun-ray lamp that turns off in private, but it outshines his rivals and dazzles anyone willing to ignore everything we know about his rotten-to-the-core character.

Sounds like the ideal leader of a political party!

seems the concept is that the people voted twice to leave the union.

The knives are coming out and the purge is on inside the Conservative Party. Are you loyal enough?

... Antoinette Sandbach said she was sent messages by an unnamed fellow Conservative MP demanding she leave the party. Senior Tories condemned the messages and pledged to investigate.
...
Also on Thursday night, Sandbach posted an image on social media of messages she said were from a colleague and suggested that similar abuse had been behind the decisions of three female former Tory MPs to leave the Conservative party.

“Barely is the ink dry on the results and the dark ops begin,” Sandbach, who supported Rory Stewart in the leadership race, wrote on Twitter. “This from a male conservative MP to me as I sit on the train home.”

The messages, which came only hours after Tory MPs voted Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt through to the final round of the party leadership contest, read: “You too are a disgrace. Time you left the party I think.” She tagged it with the words “completewankspangle” and later deleted the tweet.

In a supplementary tweet that remained live, the MP for Eddisbury added: “It’s bad enough when you get it from complete strangers. Is it any wonder three female MPs left.”

I'm sure you are familiar with Bake Off.

The Tory leadership contest, from inception, has been one massive C*nt Off.

And the biggest one seems a shoe in.

 

[macbindle]

Yep. MPs want him because he is most likely to win them an election and keep their jobs, Tory party members want him because he is offering huge tax cut to 50-80k earners.

Throwing milkshakes is akin to throwing grenades it seems, but a large man choke-slamming a peaceful female protestor, who was just walking past him, into a wall is fine...

milk shake people really know what they are protesting? Probably not. They can't read anyway. The anti exit crowd have made a virtue of ignorance.

Wrong.

Correlation between Remain vote and higher educational attainment levels. In fact, so much so that educational level is a strong predictor of EU referendum vote.

Here are the YouGov stats:

Feel free to ask if you need any help interpreting the graph.

Longer footage released, makes it even more clear how reprehensible his actions were:

Unfortunately the victim has said she will not press charges. I think that is a mistake.

hooray for old people who remember the troubles of Europe's past. They vote that way.

My understanding is it’s up to the CPS to decide if someone should be charged. I don’t know how much they take the victims view into account.

You are in good company here with Rick. Neither of you can construct a post of more than two sentences because actually you have nothing to say beyond lame trolling.

Run along and leave the discussion to the grown ups, theres a good boy.
