Ahahaha that is going to be so bad.
I get the impression that Labour's current attack plans of "no plan", "too weak", "job's too big for him" are actually cutting through. All ladled on with pictures of Sunak not understanding a contactless payment machine.

The sexual tension will put those Amelia Dimoldenberg / Andrew Garfield interviews to shame. I have suddenly lost all interest in Nadine and I'm off to google this.

That's probably a really expensive suit Bojo is wearing, but fucking hell I'd look better than that in a bin liner.

Cosplaying as Worzel Gummidge in his fancy suit is at least making an effort, Dorries hasn't even tried to be Aunt Sally.

Oh dear Bad Nad
Former culture secretary Nadine Dorries has been accused by Parliament’s anti-corruption watchdog of breaking Government rules by not consulting the body before taking a new job at TalkTV.

She's just waiting for her peerage, best we can hope for is if the standards committee takes action against Johnson and his resignation honours list gets binned.

Aye, that's what I've been secretly hoping for. Something to come up that'll scupper the entire list.
It's fucking baffling that someone who was forced to resign due to scandal after scandal still has the power to do this.

There's 100 names on Johnson's list, it's fucking ridiculous.

Sunak will be hoping this means things go away. But he just has new questions to answer now.

Quite amazing that he learned literally nothing from all the times Boris waited just long enough for it to do maximum damage before sacking someone, the actual thing that ended his premiership.

Absolutely that. Different scale but at least Starmer suspends people almost immediately. The only bad decision is no decision.

It’s because sometimes Boris did successfully wait out scandals. In fact early on him as PM it nearly always worked - Acuri, Cummings in lockdown, Patel bullying, the flat decorating - they all just kind of went away. It was Partygate that was the tipping point.

And because the 300 other Tory MPs with similar arrangements need some time to get another few shell companies set up.

They were all straws, though, and they did add up. Pincher wouldnt have got him the shove if all of the above didn’t happen.

He doesn’t even apologise in his letter in response to the sacking. He spends two thirds of it patting himself on the back and the final paragraph having a dig at the media.
The sooner we get rid of these cunts the better.
