You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Something this dull wouldn't normally warrant it's own thread, but as last year's was one of the best stand up comedy shows of 2017....
As per annual tradition Borris launched a leadership bid, undermining the PM on his personal blog, aka the Telegraph, so far so normal...
Well, every attendee; MP, SPAD, member & journo has had their contact details available to all for over a week, because they didn't set up the app they bought in properly..
This is gonna be fun .... Are they all about to be mega spammed<span style="font-size: 0.8rem;">?</span>
<span style="font-size: 0.8rem;">It's only a maximum €20,000,000 fine, from the EU 😂. </span>

It’s only a maximum €20,000,000 fine, from the EU
Is this a plot to bankrupt the tories and end brexit? Ok, they have very wealthy investors behind them, but how many of them would want to give the money for a fine knowing the EU is behind it!
Its effing hilarious. and apparently these twerps want to manage our borders using it solutions?
Probably the Russkies again - a bit of undermining and wobbling early doors.
If it the Russkies I couldn’t care less, it makes the Nasty Party look even more blundering and incompetent so bravo!
<span style="font-size: 0.8rem;">A ****ing Tory app!</span>
That's funny enough in itself.
It seems Momentum use the same app; it's apparently a default setting you just need to change, but they didn't bother.

Tory MPs must be distraught, not only do they look a new level of incompetent, but Michael Gove now has all their phone numbers 😱
'Borris Johnsons profile picture was immediately replaced with hard core pornigraphy'

Awesome.
🤪
So....
Turns out the Tories use an app for their campaigners that gives points for retweeting stuff
But seems that is in breach of GDPR laws & is harvesting all the users data & sending it off to some hardcore right wingers in the states

@kimbers I think you will find laws are for the poor people....
It is certainly not why they want out of the EU at all
& the conference centre itself, paid for by.....

Is there a way to tell if your mp is attending?
Is there a way to tell if your mp is attending?
They should all be there, but just get hold of their number from the app and call them, maybe just put on an accent and say you are their "Room Service" and ask what their alternate preference is if their preferred hooker is busy
Do you think May actually knows what Twitter or Friendface is?
Is it something to do with this new-fangled interweb thing?
Attendance is optional. In current circumstances non-attendance would be v sensible.
The whole Tory conference is going to be about Boris doing what he does - being a *!
this is probably the most critical point in this coutry since the Second World War, But * that, let’s make everything about ME, ME, ME!!!! Because that’s whats important right now, right?

Being a tory he'd prob quite enjoy that, you'd have to include a suckling piglet, an orange, box of hamsters (siberian dwarf) and a wet nurse to really make him feel at home though. Or you could just take the ****t outside and beat his ****ing eyeballs from his skull with an old 7 iron.
I’d more than happily do that too. I just can’t comprehend how some gullible morons can’t see him for exactly what he is?

He tells them exactly hat they want to hear
HaHa! It's a political party conference, what did you expect? Sense?
Theyr'e all a bunch of incompetent bumwipes,
I don't know what I dislike the most, children or MP's.
I miss the old days

Or you could just take the ****t outside and beat his **** eyeballs from his skull with an old 7 iron.
Mashy niblick, surely?
I just can’t comprehend how some gullible morons can’t see him for exactly what he is?

After theyve changed thier their hearing aid batteries, obvz.

There must be at least two under 45's in there...

Probably got got something to do with them being morons. And gullible. I should think...
Having just listened to Boris give his speech to the unhinged clapping acolytes that believe he is the new messiah i felt a pang of guilt and horror as i found myself exclaiming "where's the ****ing IRA when you need them" , then i thought......."nah, ****-em....they all deserve it"
x-post with the EU thread, but that was the speech of the next PM. Just like we all knew deep down that Trump would be elected, so the same is true of Johnson. Bring on the chaos 🙂
A leadership shot will be bloody and ugly, his chances of holing a divided party together are slim so it could finish them off for a while, tory remainers will have no love for him and probably no desire to be seen as part of his cabinet.
Open revolt time

We can hope.
Indeed, let him go for it.
IMO you’ll hear the crash plummet reverberations echo from Argentina (where he belongs IMO)
🤣🤪
After their fame on ITV news they are off to check the best before dates on their condoms, hoping to follow Borris into something
Ouch, just as May heads to podium ....

Anyone listening to this tripe? I don't know how she has the barefaced cheek to spout some of it!
Talking about Savid's dad's opportunity to come here. Which they're taking away.
Worst use of Abba ever.
Apparently, the British Judiciary system is ‘incorruptible’. Who knew? 😂
I don’t know how she has the barefaced cheek to spout some of it!
Because she needs to play to the gammons in the room not everyone else who know it's crap and expect her to spout crap
No holding back that's for sure, straight on with the out right lies.
Sounds like no deal is getting closer as the unicorns and magic money trees she's promising ain't coming along any time soon.
Blah...blah....blah.....slump onto podium....crash to floor...twitch a few times then no movement...followed by rapturous applause...........another corpsing moment for May?, or just a diabetic coma?
Did Jeff Lynne know they were going to do that?
Dancing Queen 💃
Awesome.
Simply awesomeness of grandiose awesomeness coated in awesome
How this sorry lot manage to cling to power is beyond me, or is it a case of we get the Government we deserve?
One thing that keeps me going is the knowledge that all of these ****s will die.
Nice shoes though eh?
Dancing Queen
Really. I was sure they'd have gone for Waterloo, given that the world view of the average Tory is stuck in the Napoleonic era.
Money, Money, Money would probably work too, given that it's a rich man's world...

People who don't understand anything and don't question anything are allowed to vote. They vote based on all sorts of things (what the media says, what the bloke down the pub says etc,.) without knowing the impact. If they did the conservative party would never, ever be in government as at no time do they ever serve the best interests of the majority of the country.
I wonder. Did she know about the letter before she went on, or did they keep it from her and she’s only now finding out?
The cringe is real.
I am dissapointed, I was hoping for the set to fall down after last year
all we got was the usual waffle, a few policies nicked from corbyn & May doing the dance thing again
I wonder. Did she know about the letter before she went on, or did they keep it from her and she’s only now finding out?
The letter isn't a massive issue in and of itself though - it's not the first, so it's not a shock, and they need 48 in total to trigger a no confidence motion. Which I doubt they want to do before Brexit, because then someone else will have to take some responsibility
Doesn’t there have to be at least 48 signatures in the first place to enable the letter?
There’s been others? I don’t remember any. Could be wrong.
Yeah, exactly.
Who wants to take control of a ship that’s sinking and the rats are jumping off, all the stock in the hold is waterlogged and the parrot has shit on the last remaining ships biscuit.
No
One.
48 no confidence votes is rather a lot to muster, considering they want jobs after brexshite no one will push for a leadership election.
See above.
There’s been others? I don’t remember any. Could be wrong.
Yes they add up over time. However its messy since apparently some of the people who claim they have sent them havent (according to the bloke who has them in his drawer) and so on.
Saw someone guessing (they were clearly it was a guess) that there was about 30-40.
The thing is if they dont manage to kick her out then she gets a year before they can attack again.
Telegraph reckons there are 36 letters so far, Kussenberg reckons 30
she still wouldnt necessarily loose a confidence vote either
There’s no way the Brexshitters can win a confidence vote.
And if they thought for a second that they could, they’d have done it long before now!
They make a lot of noise, but they represent a small minority. When push comes to shove they haven’t even got the numbers to trigger a vote. Despite all their bluster, they can’t get out of the starting blocks.
Just imagine how much that simple piece of arithmetic winds that vainglorious cockwomble Johnson up?! 😂
Those Young Tories look like something out of a real-life Viz strip.
To paraphrase Georges Clemenceau:
"If a person is not a liberal when he is twenty, he has no heart; if he is a conservative when he is twenty, he has no chin"
Watching that young tory clip made my skin itch.
I can't hope to be as succinct as this …

… so I'll say nothing.

Conservative country elects Conservative government shock!
The Conservative Party is the most successful party of all the political parties in Europe, mainly because they don't threaten change, in fact they don't appear to be that interested in politics, just maintaining the status quo. This appeals to the public at large. The "all politicians are crooks" brigade just play into their hands. So yes, we as a country do get what we deserve.
^ Scotland has never voted for a conservative majority yet we get saddled with the pricks time and time again
Pretty much sums things up...
How this sorry lot manage to cling to power is beyond me, or is it a case of we get the Government we deserve?
Lots of answers - but I think bitterness, hate thy neighbor.
People would sooner be bitter and angry about things than be positive, productive and progressive.
Thing is, no matter how much they drivel on about being the modern, go-getting, uptodate party of today’s world, they’re patently nothing like it. Every time they open their mouths and blurt, they just sound like the most modern they can manage is 1956, let alone Blondie’s WW2 Churchill impersonations or Mogg’s love of all things 17th century.
Did you hear May’s warm-up act? The Attorney General.
This is meant to inspire? Seriously?
The UK is about to jump into the unknown in a dangerous, shifting-sands world where it’s better to stick together for survival and he’s blathering on with some ‘rule Britannia’-type bollocks from Milton. MILTON!
What. The. Actual. .....
^ Scotland has never voted for a conservative majority yet we get saddled with the pricks time and time again
If by never you mean since the 1960's and onwards then yes.
Why didn't she just walk on stage and say, This Brexit stuff is dead hard, I'm fed up with it and I don't think I want to do it any more.
Anybody else want a go? Come on hands up who wants a go?
How many hands do you think would have shot Up?
Just noticed this from yesterday
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-45723640
apparently a Chinese state TV reporter went there & disrupted a debate on political freedom in HK - in the process she opened a small can of whoop-ass on a young tory named Enoch... who the **** names their child "Enoch" apart from Mrs Powell?
Conservative country elects Conservative government shock!
That's not really true. Research shows that people consistently support ostensibly left-wing policies, such as raising taxes to pay for healthcare, building more council houses, and nationalising public transport.
The Conservative Party is the most successful party of all the political parties in Europe, mainly because they don’t threaten change, in fact they don’t appear to be that interested in politics, just maintaining the status quo.
Alternatively, it's because they represent the interests of those with power.
Marina Hyde nailed it !

How disproportionately should your votes be counted?
