That's nothing I became working class when I had a pint in the dockers before the game on Saturday, I became middle class by getting a beer in the Balmoral post game and I think I became royalty when I visited Holyrood palace on the Sunday?

Really enjoyed this long form interview by Amol Rajan with John Major.
If you have a spare 44 minutes I urge you to check it out.
It's what UK politicians used to be like.

I watched it the other day and was thinking that Major comes across as further left than Starmer. Decent watch that brought back some memories, not all of them good.

i remember thinking Kenneth Clarke, yes Kenneth Clarke, was possibly the last remaining Tory just before he retired with the slightest part of a moral compass

All these gifts all these politicians are receiving. I hope they're paying tax on them.

CropleyWasGod might be able to confirm there's a £3,000 limit on tax free gifting, or whatever its known as. And there must be some tax due on all the other donations.

I don't think there's any tax due unless Alli's clogs pop within the next 7 years, in which case his estate will have to stump up.

The donations aren't tax-deductible for the donors. Largely for that reason, they're not taxable on the donees.

The £3k you're thinking about is the annual limit on gifts by individuals, for Inheritance Tax purposes. Donations to parties are exempt from IHT.

Thanks. How do I become a donee? 😆

Tories shelled out £114m in payouts for undelivered Covid contracts

The health department and the UK Health Security Agency have shelled out £114m after cancelling contracts for equipment that was never needed, or items which didn’t meet specifications, a Good Law Project investigation has revealed. All these payouts were made before the election. And 86% of this money has been handed to firms linked with senior Tory figures.

More to it as I understand it. She was about to be investigated for tweets.

After things she's said on talk shows and stuff like HIGNFY I'm surprised she wasn't chucked out years ago.

Down South, the Lying Tories are choosing another new leader. Jenrick looks to be favourite, with Badenoch a close second.
They are all bat**** crazy. Although one adviser seems to be quite perceptive:

However, former Conservative adviser Rachel Woolf warned the panel not to underestimate the scale of dislike for the party, saying that, “We cannot for one second convince ourselves that we’re not loathed. We are, and we haven’t done any of the necessary steps [to turn things around]”

Labour keeps going the way they are and it won’t matter what they are, just what they are not.

Tell me once again that the New Lying Tory party is not fascist.
This video from Jenrick (current favourite for new Lying Tory leader) is more bat**** crazy stuff

https://x.com/RobertJenrick/status/1840659469727916246

If you dont believe me, perhaps listen to former Tory Attorney General Dominic Grieve:

This is one of the most astonishing videos I have ever seen posted by a Conservative MP, let alone a candidate for the leadership. Most of it is twaddle, a series of promises of change that leaving the ECHR will do nothing to take forward.

Conservative fringe meeting on immigration discussing how to persuade women to "breed for Britain" in order to "grow more" social care workers, one day after Kemi Badenoch's comments about "excessive" maternity pay.

Liz Truss at the Lying Tory Conference:

• Liz Truss tells Conservative party conference that she is a "huge fan" of Argentina's far right leader Javia Milei. Says if Milei were standing for Tory leader "I would back him in a shot"
• I would have done better than Rishi Sunak at the general election and could even have won if I'd stayed as leader, says Liz Truss
• Liz Truss now calling for universities and other organisations to be "defunded" if they're "antithetical to conservative values"
• Asked to say something that will cheer up the audience, Liz Truss replies that "Donald Trump might win". Big round of applause from the audience
• Liz Truss says she agrees with Kemi Badenoch that some cultures are "less valid" than others, saying that Britain is based on "Judeo Christian values and that should prevail". Adds that she thinks the Star of David should be placed at entry points to the UK
• Theresa May "is part of the establishment" unlike me, says former Prime Minister and First Lord of the Treasury, Liz Truss
• Liz Truss says people's mortgages only went up after her mini-budget because of the Bank of England, not because of anything she said, or did. Blames "the media" for not reporting she wasn't to blame.
• "Conservatives won't succeed until we get rid of the Office for Budget Responsibility," says Liz Truss

We've had one, however he spoke with a public school accent so not many people noticed.
