    She meant that they're the party of tax.
    Specifically avoiding it for the ultra-rich and their donors, while raising it massively for everyone else.

    Honest Rishy has been found out again!
    It's obvious that all the 'not commenting on speculation ' ****e was just a delaying tactic so he could announce a decision in his speech at conference.
    Although why he would want to announce the decision slapping Manchester in the face while standing in an old train station in Manchester is beyond me.
    However, as he also announced that the money saved by cancelling HS2 would be spent on extending the tram line to Manchester Airport when it already goes there, suggests he's just taking the piss!

    When any one of those have the wheels of power in this country and demonstrate what I said then you may just have a point.

    I've said this before and some may have disagreed with me on here but I have a lot of time for Steve Baker. He's the only brexiteer I can remember who put his arguments forward with decency and genuine belief, without resorting to blatant lies and gutter politics. And here he is again standing up for the same.

    He's a nutter, unfortunately.
    Libertarian who doesn't believe in climate change.
    Also opposed marriage equality, though that's not due to homophobia.
    He believes that marriage shouldn't involve the state. He's legally married, of course.

    And like Shearer, he was recruited from Wallsend Boys Club to play for Southampton.

    What? :emoticon-0138-think

    Look... nobody's perfect <laugh>

    He's a tory so he's bound to have some beliefs that stink. But the thing is, he does so with good intent and not because he's on a grift or selling his soul for political self interest. Just my view from what I've seen of him.

    He's certainly no Francois, Bone, Bojo, Farage, or Moggy.

    Wrong Steve Baker, though the other one spent time in Southampton too, funnily enough.

    I just think that they're all irredeemably ****, I must admit! <laugh>
    Even the supposedly decent ones, like Rory Stewart, vote for horrific stuff.
    They all seem to believe in demonstrable nonsense, too.

    Some are worse than others, of course, but they're all quite unhinged.
    Their ideas don't work and yet they can't seem to recognise that fact.
