Oh dear...

Badenoch is admitting that the Tories nearly went bust after the last GE.

I thought this bunch were the party of financial responsibility and common sense? Was I wrong in thinking that?

It's okay, there was an article in one of the right wing righter wing papers today about how she'll be the next PM because she's so clever and has a cadre of the country's cleverest thinkers behind her.. The genius that really stood out on the list was Toby Young, a nepo baby that even nepo babies warn to shut up and keep his head down because he's making the rest of them look stupid.

Well, the Tories did call David Willetts (one of the sponsors of inter-generational tension) "Two Brains" because...Can someone remind me why, as I never thought he was particularly clever?

Another one like BlowJob and ReeSmog who do some smart sounding blether, which is actually pish, who are the epitome of Hislop's term "a stupid person's idea of a clever person". But no-one ever seems to challenge the twunts.

Yes, but you have to compare him to his peers. Two neurons is two brains for them.
 
Posting here but it would go just as well in a Trump thread.

Boris Johnson
@BorisJohnson
This is a total disgrace. The BBC has doctored footage of Trump to make it look as though he incited a riot - when he in fact said no such thing. We have Britain’s national broadcaster using a flagship programme to tell palpable untruths about Britain’s closest ally. Is anyone at the BBC going to take responsibility - and resign?

Right on cue


Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
This is gross misrepresentation.
Our national broadcaster is a disgrace.
Talk about fake news.
Scrap the licence fee.
Defund the BBC

Liz Truss
@trussliz
Why am I not shocked?
The media in Britain is a big part of the problem.
Defund the BBC.

Donald Trump Jr.
@DonaldJTrumpJr
The FAKE NEWS "reporters" in the UK are just as dishonest and full of ◊◊◊◊ as the ones here in America!!!!

I watched that speech live (on the BBC) with my jaw on the floor. I saw and heard him incite that riot. No "doctoring" was necessary for me to know exactly what he was doing.

According to the Gammons and MAGA accounts the BBC are responsible for the entire conspiracy to claim there was any attempt at an insurrection or tampering with the election result.

Interestingly, the minimum wage for 21 and over is the same as in Australia within a few cents.

One of the rationale is that younger people will be living with parents so don't have housing costs. I'm someone who left home at 17, I had housing costs from then on in so it doesn't impress me. And given how many adults are returning to the empty nest perhaps it should now drop for those over 30......

I'm sure if Führage gets power it will..
 
Toby Young
@toadmeister
The BBC doctored a Donald Trump speech by making him appear to tell supporters to "fight like hell" when in fact he said he would walk with them to the Capitol "to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard".
 
This is going to be the Gammon outrage for days isn't it?

When I left the #BBC because I was not prepared to accept their bias, I was told by many that by Joining @GBNEWS, I’d destroyed my career 🙄. How wrong they were. This latest Trump doctoring revelation does not surprise me at all. Disgraceful !
