I’ve thought similar recently. For all the old school Tories like him, Clarke, Major etc., it must be crushing to see how far the party has fallen from the values it used to have. I can’t even begin to imagine their disappointment and frustration at what the party has become

In all my 46 years, I've never been in a room with even half this many people who look like real-life Viz characters. It's leading me to think that being a young Tory might actually be diagnosable.

There’s nothing wrong with calling racists, liars, hypocrites and grifters those words. It could in fact be argued that it isn’t merely acceptable, but a moral duty.

Fascinating to watch the Conservative Party go through a genuine existential crisis, shitting into their hand and clapping while grinning like lunatics. I can only imagine what it must be like for one of the old guard, a Major or Clarke, to look on and see how far it's fallen

Can anyone explain to me how this isn't all just some gigantic pyramid scheme? The whole thing absolutely reeks of a fat bubble waiting to burst.
