TL:DR - They're a bunch of cunts.

"conservatives of all parties" don't give a solitary fuck about your party, Miriam.

[Bones McCoy]

More populism - won't somebody think of the landlords?

Landlords have had a rough time over the past decade.
Rental yields have practically stood still since 2014 but the gradual loss of tax breaks has increasingly squeezed profits.

They having a bigly hard time

[kreuzberger]

If they haven't said anything beastly about stiplick wearers who have a winkle, that weasel-faced fascist, Bravermann, will be spitting fucking tacks.

[Malcolm Armsteen]

Fucking tacks incoming...

Hapless Lucy Frazer gives a Ben Swain car crash interview explaining government tax plans to Sophy Ridge.

It was dire, even by current tory standards. Ridge was having none of it. It's so good to see an interviewer who is well prepared and ready to fact check on the fly.

Apparently Gillian Keegan has been interviewed on several news programmes today and been utterly abysmal. The Tories are still struggling to find the big hitters who can hammer home the positive Tory message.

The one downside of driving home the tax burden question is that it repeatedly reinforces that taxes are a burden rather than what we pay in to keep society running.

[Youngian]

Can only think of two chancellors, Ken Clarke and Gordon Brown who raised taxes when the economy was doing well. This is a no brainer you’d think politically and economically but most Tories have scant USP beyond tax cuts so don’t worry about cushioning the blow in a future downturn. Of course leftists can be equally as reckless with poorly costed spending sprees.

This is part of the wider, broader issue I have with most of this election babble, Labour's pitch, etc. I get why, but: it never challenges many, many lazy, glib assumptions that harm us.

Nicked off twitter.

My son’s wearing a ‘Vote Conservative’ T-shirt today.
So far he’s been spat at, punched in the head and called a brainless twat.

God knows what’s going to happen to him when he leaves the house.

[Tubby Isaacs]

Well, indeed. Sunak has completely lost control.

As others have pointed out, the CCHQ is likely paying for this stuff. If Andrea wants to freelance, she can raise her own money to do it.

Fucking state of that, based on her Bros fanzine with pics she cut out of Smash Hits.

[Watchman]

and why has she got someone in an American WW2 uniform holding an Union flag

[Tubby Isaacs]

Andrea's replied to people wondering about Farage. Apparently the point is that conservatives all kinds need to come together. Quite what she thinks Farage is doing to help with that, God knows.

[Killer Whale]

What she actually means by that is that conservatives of all kinds should agree with her and the frog-faced cunt.

[Youngian]

The Healey Vs Benn Labour era will look like a tea party tiff in comparison to the Tory shit show that will ensue if Farage enters parliament. Without Johnson, he’s the best chance of a future job for a talentless low rent gobshite like Jenkyn. But others sympathetic to Reform aren’t going to see their ambitions brushed aside for a carpetbagger who hasn’t put in the hard yards over the years.

[Bones McCoy]

The various Tories arguing that a Large Labour majority would be unhealthy for democracy puts me in mind of the retort from Viv Richards (iirc) to a particular hopeful lbw appeal….
