Her degree is in art history and her career was spent working for a clothing company.

Presumably BadEnoch was AWOL for the previous 14 years of Tory financial destruction and chaos? The barefaced gall…

Orban and Farage – Putin's pet toad with his pet frog.

Farage says they are fighting for the nation state. Indeed, they are, they are fighting for Russia.

Calling English a 'rip-off degree' is one of the most blatant exhibitions of personal barbarism I've ever seen. You've demonstrated nothing but the poverty of your own mind.

Birmingham, my home city, is a fantastic city, with fantastic people- a success story. It has its problems, like anywhere. But the obsession the online right has with it is as transparent as it gets.

Badenoch dismisses leadership threat after 20 Tory councillors defect to Reform UK… Presumably, that’s what she meant by “shedding the baggage of the last 14 years." She is toast.

All the wealth, the private education for them to get ahead and they can’t spell the name of the country that flag shagging for. Embarrassing, incompetent. They have the gall to lecture others. Would have cost fuck all for a proof reader the tight cunts

Oh dear!
Much discussion over MAGA Trump Republicans' Project 2025'.
Now comically & retrospectively musing over a notional tory project 'Britian 2000' (sic).
The aim being to perform a makeover on wrinkly old Conservatism to appear youthful, trendy & vigorous not selfish, bigoted & dyeing (sic).

Don't forget that 41 Tory MPs in the last government took Russian donations. That might account for media reticence to report on the Nathan Gill case.

Am wondering if all of those suddenly deciding they’re against communities living “parallel lives” might reconsider their support of religious schools? Or indeed private ones?

Well, little Tommy-Ten-Names does seem to spend an awful lot of time abroad…mostly fleeing justice, admittedly. That’s quite ‘integrated’.

Wow. Robert Jenrick doubles down by branding a black journalist's questions "ridiculous" and saying that the problem is not his comments, but "journalists like you who pop up and try to knock me down", adding that "this is the reason why terrorist attacks happen". ~AA
