OK Johnson has annoyed me. Again. The pig-shit thicko has just announced he will look into seeing whether taxes on fags, sugar and other health-harming things are "unfair on the poor". What he is proposing is actually giving his cancer-promoting friends in government tax breaks to let them get even richer selling crap that kills (stand up Rees-Mogg and take a bow you cancer-promoting Dublin-based hypocritical Brexit-supporting tax avoider), with the useful by-product that it sends poorer people to an earlier grave and costs the rich folk a bit less in tax.

Just to point out the bleeding obvious - removing tax on unhealthy products helps the rich, it doesn't help the poor. If you want to help the poor, you keep the taxes on unhealthy products to encourage people to buy healthy products and THEN YOU GIVE THE LOW-PAID TAX BREAKS TO COMPENSATE FOR THE EXTRA TAX. That way the rich don't benefit and the poor do benefit.

f***ing liars trying to sound as though they are in it for the poor when they aren't. I can't stand hypocrisy and lies. I've probably mentioned that before.....

The election papers were posted out to Tory members the other day so voting has commenced. I hope the party membership just do the right thing...



.....And elect Boris! My champagne is on ice for when he enters No.10.

You won't be able to afford champagne when he strips you of your benefits.

He may have to resort to stealing more than just the plastic fruit bags from the supermarket.

Oh I should be okay. Just 6 years to go until I reach retirement age. That's probably three more re-assessments.

Jack Mogg has tweeted (ot got his butler to tweet) in support of Johnson, saying that only he can reunite the Quitters (I refuse to use his word). That tells us two things. First, Mogg doesn't seem to think Johnson can reunite the country he did so much to divide in the first place. Second, we finally have ab admission that the Quitters are not united on what sort of withdrawal they want. I think the Mogg has inadvertently let the moggy out of the bag.

miaowww!

If Reeks-mogg were a cat he'd be a pampered cat on a country estate, idly slowly torturing passing butterflies and small birds for hours on end till he got bored with 'em and then leave them to suffer rather than put them out of their misery. Then go back to eating expensive kittty food out of his gold-plated bowl then get the servants to clean-up his poop which he did on the best carpet cos he's too lazy to go outside and dig his own hole in the soil and cover it up. It's called paying others to clean up mess you created cos you literally only give a shit about yourself.

Heard on the 10pm radio news that police are searching for graffiti artists who daubed "BORIS IS A COKE-HEADED PERVERT" on a bridge overlooking the M4. The local council called out specialist contractors and are hurriedly trying to remove this. biggrin.gif

Hope they catch them and throw the book at them for those horrible lies. mad.gif

Well, the last word is incorrect, so I agree about removing it. They should have said "Boris has been a coke-snorting serial adulterer". He will never deny that statement. With a bit of luck when voters see what he fails to deliver on his promises we can edit it down to "Boris has been" and just leave it at that..... laugh.gif

Another poll of Tory members, taken this last week, after ballot papers were sent out and received, has Boris on 72% and Hunt on 28%. So if that's the way they vote it's looking like a landslide for Boris our next PM.

Colour-me-shocked: middle-aged-rich-man says he can save the Tory Party, cough, I mean UNITED Kingdom (even though he contributed to the current crisis and split) by lying about Brexit to Brexit-loving well-off middle-aged men and they love him.

Who'd a thunk it!!!

Ah yes, that would be the same poll as the one that said 70% of their sample claimed to have voted already whereas only around 30% of ballot papers have been received back so far.

Are you saying that Hunt has a chance then Suedy? smile.gif

Have they said when the result will be announced yet? I know it's w/c 22nd.

They have given the date, but I can’t remember when it is. In their usual fashion, repeating what they did with their election manifesto, they broke with convention and planned to announce it on the same day that the Lib Dems announce their new leader. The Lib Dem date has been changed.

Okay they'll announce it Tuesday 23rd with May speaking in her last PMQ's at noon on 24th before she heads off to the Palace around 2pm to see The Queen followed by the new Tory leader. So in place by Wednesday tea-time.

I notice you didn't answer my first question Suedy.
