Re: Tory Watch
4 reasons that I can see:
1) to avoid the meeting with the Northern Tory MPs, having promised them all this 'levelling up' and failing to deliver
2) to try and change the news headlines away from his ethics adviser having resigned in disgust at what Johnson wanted from him
3) wanting to assert himself as Zelenski's bestest mate after Zelenski met with important EU leaders, can't possibly be upstaged by them
4) to play out his fantasy of being a 'world leader', farting around the globe with his own special plane
Re: Tory Watch
5) To wind up Remoaners who don't like the fact that Johnson is more popular with Zelensky (note the spelling) and the Ukrainian people than the EU's leaders.E10EU wrote: ↑Sat Jun 18, 2022 11:19 pm4 reasons that I can see:

As for (3) "being upstaged by important EU leaders", have a read about what is really going on with the EU and its response:

And as for Johnson "asserting himself as Zelenski's bestest mate", this is awkward...

Re: Tory Watch
Have I read this correctly? The Sunday Times wanted to run a story about BJ appointing his new Mrs for a job she was unqualified for when they were having an affair, but he slapped an injunction on the story. How does he get away with it?

If you liked that story you may also like the one about her getting the heave ho from the Tory party comms dept for being rubbish at her job and fiddling her expenses.Give it to Jabo wrote: ↑Sun Jun 19, 2022 3:34 pm Have I read this correctly?

Re: Tory Watch
This one hasn't gone away yet, either.

Looks like quite a pattern of behaviour: using his access to public funds (in a less than honourable manner) to promote whatever the interests of his latest 'friend' are.

Re: Tory Watch
The political realignment that has been tearing its way through the Republican Party in the US has now well and truly erupted within the UK Conservative Party. We're now witnessing the Tories stick two fingers up to the business community (failure to plan for Brexit), the Church of England and the next monarch (the Rwanda policy). They have also damaged their own claim to be the party of law and order.

In short, a Party that’s always been a pile of sh-ite is getting even worse.Dunners wrote: ↑Mon Jun 20, 2022 10:34 am The political realignment that has been tearing its way through the Republican Party in the US has now well and truly erupted within the UK Conservative Party.

Re: Tory Watch
The Tories are now well and truly the party for parties.
Tonight they are having a big fundraising bash at the Victoria & Albert museum, tickets for attendees costing £1500 and lots of auctions for even larger sums to flood into party coffers.
Not a good look when millions of workers are told to just put up with mega inflation and "don't ask for more".

Re: Tory Watch
With deep sadness I am having to conclude that Johnson is way beyond such remedy.
Everything about him has been calculating and manipulating and ultimately he really doesn't give a XXXX about anything other than what is self serving.
I would go further and speculate that he gets quite a thrill and ego out of 'getting one over' the rules, whatever they may be'!

Re: Tory Watch
Phew - well at least our fearless leader has pledged to "keep going" - just going once would be sufficient, thanks.
He's also pledged to "listen to the people" - kind of implies that hasn't previously been too high on his list of priorities. Any Tories on here still think Boris is the dogs danglers?

Government plans to "level up" cities around the UK will cost billions more than thought, a think tank has said.
What are they going to do next
A southerners Tax ?
