The absolute state of this.

A thread about corruption in the Conservative Party and OB is appealing to the mods that the party leader and Prime Minister are off topic.

Presumably off topic?

Don't I hate it when a fellow Conservative, and from Wokingham at that, gets got by the man from Scotland!

Not in Wokingham. ;)

If we think the thread is off topic we will step in. In the meantime perhaps reflect on how the Paterson affair might quite legitimately lead to a broader discussion of Johnson’s judgment skills.

I still want to know what CF members have got against giving MPs facing disciplinary action a right of appeal, as in just about any other walk of life.

I guess dredging up all this irrelevant stuff really does show this dramatic outrage for what it is - nothing but bumfluff.

Interestingly, MPs on both sides have been muttering about the inadequacies of the present system for some time, and now the Opposition is happily discussing with the government ways of dealing with this problem, including the right of appeal!

Still, they’ve claimed a Tory scalp and made the government squirm, so who cares, eh? :rolleyes:

That’s politics for you!
Interestingly, this has never been mentioned before they tried to put together a Conservative controlled Committee, just before another Standards investigation into Johnson’s conduct may be launched…

Probably pure coincidence (and if you believe that, ‘I’ve got a bridge you might be interested in buying…).

But seriously, can you provide any links showing there were these "mutterings" before the Patterson farrago took off?

I'm starting to wonder if Starmer is paying you to defend lame duck Johnson, so that he limps on for as long as possible and increases Labour's chances of being elected. :confused:

Why would Keir pay him, no one listens to him and that'll be Sir Starmer who Jezza blocked from taking a second job

Heard Geoff Cox is being investigated in a Neil Hamilton type probe, interesting times

It was on his FB page today as well - one assumes it took place today.

You can sure that the absence of specifics (such as 11-Nov) and nothing on his Twitter account makes it a dead cert that it was today and he is covering up for his selfishness.

Someone please prove me wrong.

P.S: Friday is often the day MPs spend in their constituency.

You're starting to sound like a broken record.

Remember when Marcus Rashford had the temerity to try and help hungry children and that classless piece of crap told him to stick to the day job, well guess who didn't heed her own advice, that's right, Natalie hypocrite Elphick

Yes, she needs to stick to her main job and give up her side hustle of being an MP.
