Owen Paterson: Anger as Tory MP avoids suspension in rule shake-up

[Sephiroth]

Such a shame, and I mean shame, that the Conservatives in Parliament are coming into disrepute. The contracts stuff is only a tip of the iceberg, I reckon.
A gift for Starmer who was previously a nothing.

I agree but Starmer, even given the enormous open goal in front of him, seems incapable of finding the net. He has no charisma and poor political instincts.

I’m loathed to commend Starmer - and I’m inclined to think he is playing a good strategy by accident in that “doing nothing” is an unusual strategy - however in this case letting the Tories cannibalise each other over the right to represent corporate interests over their constituents might actually just work. It avoids the classic trope of being accused of “playing politics”. So long as the “VIP fast lane” is dominating the news and everyone bar the Telegraph is gunning for Johnson sitting back with your feet up might actually achieve more.

charisma is not everything rather have a none charismatic good PM than the totally usless corrupt charismatic PM Johnson is

I suggest that you read Leadsom’s proposed amendment before digging yourself a deeper hole, Dave.

The amendment stated that the disciplinary action should be stayed until a right of appeal was established.

That was rejected by the House and so it was withdrawn.

Out of that come all this drama. The easiest and quickest way out of this is to apologise, so apology given.

I have no problem with that. But Starmer is a damp squib.

Just to show how bad it is for the Tories in the midst of this Corruption storm, here's a post from Isabel Oakeshott, yes that Isabel Oakeshott!

-Multi million pound contracts for mates
-Illegal migrants pouring across the Channel
-Suicide bomber was failed asylum seeker
-Taxes at record high
-NHS can't cope
The Tories have had 10 years in power! Every day, the state this country is in takes my breath away.

I think I must have slipped into a parallel universe when I can agree with something she says
