Mice! Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 Well they said on the news or radio earlier that most Covid restrictions in England are being relaxed or removed again next week which will make Boris popular again. But someone was saying we should keep wearing masks and socially distance which is the opposite?? But then the news said inflation is at its highest point since 1992, a labour MP came on and said this was the issue that Parliament should be discussing! But then I went shooting 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12gauge82 Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) What this whole saga says to me, is this country needs a massive change with our whole political system. Our politicians can't be trusted and there appears to be no proper mechanism in place to ensure they abide by the rules. If a police officer were caught dealing drugs or breaching some other law, you would expect the book to be thrown at them and rightly so, as they would have breached the laws they were meant to be upholding, there are many mechanisms in place to prevent that type of corruption. It appears politicians have broken the very laws they invented and we're not just talking one or two, it's loads of them and it appears many others knew and were happy for it to go on and not report it and would appear not alot can be done about it. The whole thing stinks, it's an apple rotten right the way to the core and it needs to be completely thrown out!

However, on the “About” section of his blog he says he runs a company called North Wood that “tries to solve problems”, working across politics, management and communication.

12gauge82 Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 That's another element I meant to comment on. I also don't believe one man with a grudge should be able to bring down a government, that's also a slippery slope. However the rest of my post I stand by, its a rotten barrel and needs clearing out.

Weihrauch17 Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 (edited) Can't believe they are allowed to do that, he was elected as a Tory. Would have thought he should have resigned and stood as a Labour candidate in a fresh by election. 1 hour ago, 12gauge82 said: That's another element I meant to comment on.

Boris's Socialist Green Policies and his disrespect of the Nation are bringing him down not his Government, Partygate is the straw that broke the Camels back. Cummings is merely a whistle blower, it's a problem entirely of his own making. If the Tories under a new leader don't start using our own huge energy reserves and seriously row back on the economy bankrupting Green nonesense they will be toast at the next GE.

They wanted him dead only because they thought he'd would now lose the war. This Wakeford is of the same cloth.

Quite a few changed sides before Boris won the election. Both labour and Tory jumped ship to start that new ,now forgotten party. Carswell joined UKIP and some went liberal. As far as I am aware everyone of them are no longer around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He even voted in favour of the bill, on this very subject, about stopping MPs crossing the floor without a by-election. It obviously didn't pass though. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/christian-wakeford-backed-bill-mandating-22802850.amp Edited January 19, 2022 by Newbie to this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely this means that a new Tory MP will move into that seat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weihrauch17 Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 No the seat is now Labour even though the electorate voted Tory, I suspect he will be kicked out at the next GE on principal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
