    A Tory MP thought these were appropriate comments:

    Lower than whale sh it.

    If they remain in power after the next election, this country will be irreparably damaged.

    I’m really hopeful that they will be gone. I got the feeling with Trump that he’d said and done enough ***** to piss off most people about at least one thing and so would lose the vote and I’m hoping the Tories have done the same.

    That thing Coffey was singing "I had the time of my life" last night, just as her department were taking money from the poorest in society. They don't care what their actions lead to, or how it looks.

    Folk thought Thatcher's and Major's cabinets were nasty.......

    Some things you read and think, that must be out of context.

    Then you read up a bit more ...

    And then you think - nope, that's accurate.

    Then there are no words...

    All it will take is a solid smear campaign on Starmer or whoever is in charge at the time and they'll win again. Don't underestimate how gullible many people are.

    I apologise to everyone's ears in advance :mad::mad::mad:



    And despite the fake outrage against Angela Raynor it seems they are so proud of the label that they are actually wearing badges to revel in the name.

    Big difference between 2 though was for all of Trumps time he had the MSM against him, where as ours say very little about Boris.

    Some people are bright, some are daft. Some have it figured out, others are misguided. And then you get this cabinet and these Tory MPs: sheer, unadulterated evil and greed.

    on way home today,on car radio,had greatest hits radio on, the news item interviewed a young woman complaining the 20 pounds had been stopped, she was saying she was upset because now she could not treat herself to a takeaway or have that night out with her friend to the pictures,I know you can spend the money on what you want, but thought maybe these are not the best examples she could have said,on reflection think I was wrong too think that maybe the 20 pounds lets people have a release and cheer themselves up a but , but expect lots of people on first hearing that would think like I did

    that's because of the constant attack on those in need the most. Tax dodgers, millionaires, the press etc constantly blaming the needy. No one wants to live in benefits it’s rubbish. The Pandora papers should have got everyone angry instead.

    And I think that's valid. People (even those who can't work/aren't working) do need something in life now and then for it to be worth living. You have to remember not everyone has the home comforts and support network that most do. Some of these people may be living in squalid not-fit-for-rental homes, with no family or friends. There has to be some kind of life, and practically everything costs money.

    I actually understand stopping the universal credit increase as it was only ever supposed to be temporary (though personally if I was going to have a temporary increase it would have been delayed until winter not wasted in summer) but there's absolutely no excuse for being such a pathetic excuse for a human being that you withdraw it and then moan that 80k isn't enough to live on. I don't believe someone can be so conniving and devious to work yourself into the Tory party and steal yourself a knighthood without knowing exactly what you're saying and with that in mind the only explanation for his comments is that like a lot of his colleagues he is pure evil.

    And web I say I understand stopping it, I don't agree with it I just understand it
