Just had a local councillor knock on the door. Pretty much verbatim:
'I understand your issues with Boris, but all that happens if you vote with him in mind next week is I lose and [local policies here] don't happen. He'll be gone before the next election anyway'. She went on to say I should write to our MP about him.

It's interesting how polished the delivery was of this, she'd clearly used it a lot in a pretty solid Tory constituency. Says a lot about what will is being fed back to the parliamentary party, could be interesting if they get a shooing next week.

It's stories like this that make my head spin sometimes.

As if you would sit in that environment watching porn. It's so weird, but then I guess politics attracts weird people.

Yep. You've got to be not entirely normal to want to go through the process of even getting selected. Still find it bizarre given how many decent councillors I've met that more of them aren't persuaded to stand over the clowns that are.

The answer to that is 'that's all very well, but I can't vote for a party that was stupid enough to put a lying charlatan in that position. What guarantee can you give me that the next person you vote for, without my input will be any better?'

Isabel Hardman's book why we get the wrong politicians is well worth a read.

Tbh she left fairly mystified when I mentioned I supported HS2 and opposed free parking on the high street, which seems to be an unusual combo round here.

Clearly not wanting anyone to be named. Anyone have any idea of which departmental backbenchers would be most horrified at someone watching porn whilst meant to be working?

Dame Athene Donald, a professor of experimental physics and master of Churchill College, Cambridge, said the comments were “terrifying” and “quite damaging” and questioned to which research Birbalsingh was referring in suggesting that girls had an intrinsic lack of appetite for maths and physics.

“It’s not a case of campaigning for more girls to do physics, it’s a case of making sure that girls aren’t discouraged by remarks like this,” Donald said. “We want girls to be free to pursue what they’re good at and, equally, boys should also be able to go into professions like nursing. We aren’t in a society like that.”

Performatively religious types like him are always found getting spanked by a dominatrix or being noshed off by rent boys. But yes, they find it in their hearts to forgive themselves because they know Jesus loves them (but I don't).

Oh deary, deary me .... another potential Leadership challenger knifed in the back.
Sajid Javid used an offshore trust while working as an MP in the heart of the Treasury – but did not declare it in the register of members’ interests, The Independent can reveal.

As the then chancellor George Osborne’s parliamentary private secretary (PPS) in 2011, Mr Javid – now health secretary – played a key role in selling the Coalition government’s austerity policies to MPs.

But at the same time, Mr Javid was using a trust, understood to have been located in a tax haven, to cut his personal tax burden. He also served in the Treasury while the government launched a consultation on policies covering non-doms and overseas trusts in December 2011.

Earlier this month, Mr Javid admitted he had used non-dom status before entering politics and to having had an offshore trust, but it is only now that it has been revealed that he did not declare the trust as an MP and PPS.

The ministerial code states that while PPSs, who act as ministerial aides, are not technically members of the government “they must ensure that no conflict arises, or appears to arise, between their role as a parliamentary private secretary, and their private interests”.

Agreed this just gives Putin something to use in propaganda which can't now be denied/ignored. The Blonde Bumblecunt needs to be kept as far away as possible from any reporter or microphone over Ukraine given his propensity to say things he shouldn't. Feckin liability and his comments were indefensible.
