    I saw a short excerpt from a video where people were being stopped in the street and asked who they would be voting for.
    A couple, looked about late 50-early 60 years old, said that they were on their way to a food bank and they would be voting for the Conservatives because “they look after the poor and not the rich”. I kid you not.
    It’s frightening just how misinformed some people are.

    It’s interesting about how when Keir Starmer removes people he doesn’t want from the party it is “ruthless” and “Stalinist” and a “purge” and is universally reported negatively. When Boris actually purged the last few talented politicians from the Conservative Party, the reporting was considerably different…

    Funny that

    You guys all on the Starmer train now? Well, it will be better than the tories, I guess.

    But come on, I could have managed Abbott. You could have managed Abbott. Anyone who wanted to manage Abbott could have done so.

    If someone suspended me from my job for months and then didn’t have the good grace to sit me down and have a face-to-face chat about my future, I would probably **** in their cornflakes.
