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!

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!

It seems Momentum use the same app; it's apparently a default setting you just need to change, but they didn't bother.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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?! 😂

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.

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. .....

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?

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.
