Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
Quote:
Shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick has been sacked by Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch.
In a social media post, she said: "I have sacked Robert Jenrick from the shadow cabinet, removed the whip and suspended his party membership with immediate effect."
She added: "I was presented with clear, irrefutable evidence that he was plotting in secret to defect in a way designed to be as damaging as possible to his shadow cabinet colleagues and the wider Conservative Party.
"The British public are tired of political psychodrama and so am I. They saw too much of it in the last government, they're seeing too much of it in THIS government. I will not repeat those mistakes."

What was Rishi Sunak if this is psychodrama

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
I'm very disappointed. The Tories needed Jenrick to keep some of its policies straight.

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
Jenrick is such a weasel. Good on Badenoch to get ahead of this and take the wind out of his sails a bit.
Jenrick will say and do anything. Many politicians do, but he shifts from one extreme to another if he thinks it will advance his career.

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
Good to see the expulsion of this incompetent grifter. Badenoch has really grown into her role.

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
Given the current state of play in UK politics, if there was a general election tomorrow would the voter turnout reach double figures?
I think the Raving Loony Monster lot would have a greater shout at gaining power

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
Jenrick is giving a first class speech to the Reform UK press conference.

A pointless remark (at this stage).
One thing that Jenrick said that mattered was (I paraphrase) that the Tory front bench contains the very people that broke Britain (he mentioned three names including Priti Patel).

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
Pretty sure Jenrick was on the Conservative Government Front Bench when he was Secretary of State for 27 months, and when he was a Minister of State for 14 months…

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
Reform is becoming the Tory Party in exile.

'At this stage' is doing a lot of heavy lifting! I would rather trust Gove than Jenrick.

Facts have never been a burden to Jenrick. I don't see the benefit to Reform in having him. This is a win for Badenoch.

Re: Conservative Party's chronicles
It's quite an eye opener when the fresh new face of British politics actually turns out to be mostly the old failures from previous regimes . . .
