Hey, Liberals, Who's In An Echo Chamber Now?

For those of you keeping score at home, crazy extremist Nigel Farage got through to the final of 'I'm A Celebrity' while the guy foisted on the Tory Party by the supposed wizards of electability is on course for a record defeat. 

The smart set claims Rishi Sunak isn't worried about the contrast between the two of them, but it's noticeable he himself made sure to have a photo-op carrying out his own version of a bushtucker trial, being pictured with a really huge snake. 

No, wait, my mistake that was actually Michael Gove. Meanwhile, back in the real world, Farage was already meant to be dead and buried thanks to voice of the people Nella Rose - or as the public generally refer to her 'who'? 

Not only does Nella, 26, who is of Congolese descent, tick diversity boxes, but crucially her social media content — her hair and make-up video blogs are particularly popular — meant she already has millions of fans who follow her every move.

She's the voice of a generation, you guys!

Well, OK, then. Let's assume this angry and divisive race-hustling bum's rise to Tik Tok fame is totally kosher, even though, well, you know, look what happened next:

It is no secret within ITV that Nella was viewed as a future face of the channel. She even signed up with agent Jonathan Shalit – known as a star-maker courtesy of managing Charlotte Church and Myleene Klass — in a bid to raise her profile.

Shalit also has strong relationships with ITV, having worked with Good Morning Britain hosts Susanna Reid and Kate Garraway in the past.

One insider at the broadcaster revealed: 'Nella was on the list for a while....

The idea was that that show, with its millions of viewers, would make her a household name and she would be handed lots of work by ITV

Yep, she's not Rosa Parks, she's the Girls Aloud of politics, sticking it to The Man with the help of her handlers at Sticking It To The Man Ltd, a division of Smash The System PLC. 

Hey, we're all supposed to hate the 1970s comedians but at least those guys served a gruelling apprenticeship on the club circuit. Meanwhile, the MSM tries to push these grifting clowns down the public's throat, only for them to meltdown as soon as they have to deal with, actual, real people. 

There's a lesson in there for the Tories but I'm sure they'll pretend not to notice. 

They just need some targeted ads on Instagram, that'll change everything.

Moby The Dick Resurfaces!

No, Reader, despite what it looks like, that was not a beached whale in Downing Street earlier today. It was just Fat Dave Cameron making his return to government. 

Apparently, his job will be to represent British interest abroad - as opposed to his last job which was to represent foreign interests in Britain. At least that's what it seemed like at the time. 

There is no better proof of what a worthless scumbag this guy is than that the MSM has been lauding his statesman-like qualities all day, but without being able to cite anything specifically statesman-like about Blabba The Hut. 

Nope, Snooty Dave's statesman-like qualities are much like Kierdo the Weirdo's forensic analytical skills - something only visible to the MSM. 

As a basic requirement, shouldn't a certified super genius be able to come up with at least one or two memorable statements? 

And no, not memorable in the sense of being 0 for 2 in naming who fought in the Battle of Britain. 

Meanwhile, back in the real world,  this prat's main contribution to Britain was to so completely fold in his dealings with the EU that he inadvertently helped Leave win. 

And then there was him pushing the well-planned and thought out intervention in the Libyan civil war that helped make modern-day Libya the Canada of Africa. 

This - this - is what genius at work looks like!

On the other hand, we're told he will help the Tories win back the 'middle ground' - you know, all those people who were totally going to vote Tory but they were put off by the Tories being too hard on jihadist loons. 

Who'd have thunk it, huh? Apparently you're now a Nazi lunatic if you don't want to kill the jews. 

But let's not let the insanity of this specific issue blind us to the bogusness of the whole premise. Apparently, Lord Snooty is a political super genius but where exactly is this election-winning genius parked? In two elections he faced the one-eyed doomster from Fife and then an early AI system's attempt at generating a character from a Woody Allen movie and overall he managed an aggregate majority of 12 seats. 

Truly an unstoppable electoral titan! 

Meanwhile, in 2019 when the Tories went into an election with a supposedly extreme offering - you know, actual conservatism - they won an 80 seat majority. 

There is no more ludicrous myth in British politics than the idea that it's the right of the Tory Party that hobbles the Party's election chances. For all that the squish side of the Party like to talk about electability, they sure do seem to struggle to actually get elected. 

On the plus side, at least Snooty doesn't have any skeletons in the closet.

Oops. 

And that's the real problem, not only with this fraud, but with our whole political class: here's a guy who struts round like some kind of blue-blooded Ubermensch, looking down his nose at the common rabble, except now it turns out he a grifting low-life who talks in vacuous sound-bites and couldn't even empty water out of a boot if you put the instructions on the heel. 

Becky From HR Fails In Tory Leadership Bid

OMG! Penny Mordaunt has, like, totally failed to become Tory leader. 

Nightmare!

The good news is that she can still identify as a Tory leader, so there is that. 

On the down side, nearly 30% of Tory MPs actually voted for this walking NPC. 

There're the well-known controversies, like self-ID,  but it's also clear that, once you get behind the vacuous public image, she has hidden shallows. 

The big advantage Becky has is that when she comes out with some leftist nonsense the leftism tends to distract people from the underlying absurdity of the statement. What does 'change is the engine room of equality' even mean anyway? It's like something from a woke fortune cookie.

Apparently, Becky saw Liz Truss modelling herself on St Margaret and thought 'I'll do the same, except with Meghan Markle'. 

Again, this is what over a hundred Tory MPs voted for. These are the guys who don't think their members should have a vote until they've already whittled the candidates down to two. They say their party believes in trusting the people, but then they claim even their own members don't have the very special super genius required to select viable candidates. 

After all, the base might vote for some kook, instead of a proven vote winner, like the woman who wants Joe Voter's five year old daughter sharing a changing room with a woman with a beard (and lies about it even though she's on tape saying so), hangs out with jihadist nutcases and hates 'Dad's Army'. 

This, THIS, is what the voters are crying out for!

I Don't Think A New Leader Will Fix This...

Start as you mean to go on you cucks!

The Tory Party's first leadership debate is tonight and so naturally they've decided to hold it on GB News...

No, just kidding, it's Channel 4. 

Of course it it. Why wouldn't you hold it on such a famously unbiased channel? 

Yep, this one. 

Just to ram the point home, the moderator is Krishnan Guru-Murphy, the sneery rich kid race hustler. 

And, seriously, if a born filthy rich, private school & Oxford educated Metro media lovey can't speak for the conservative base, who can? 

There's a serious point here. Why is the Tory Party giving credibility to a liberal cess pit like Channel 4 anyway? 

Nothing these people are involved in qualifies as 'journalism' by any reasonable definition. Expect ninety minutes of stupid gotchas, 'have you stopped beating your wife' and the loony obsessions of Metropolitan wokies. 

The point is the modern Tory Party is useless as an ally and harmless as an enemy. They won't do anything to help their base but they'll pander to a bunch of smug North London prats who will never vote for them in a million years. 

Your Pay Hasn't Been 'Frozen' It's Just Held Up In Traffic By A Protest

Sometimes there is justice in the world... the very people who were delighted to use the Former World's Deadliest Virus as an excuse to harass anyone with an actual, productive job are now shocked - shocked - to find that the after-effects are hitting them in the pocket. 

Who knew that morally, legally and scientifically dubious lockdowns would impact on the public finances? 

Also shocking: it turns out that the entire human right lobby was not, in fact, wiped out by covid after all. They were just pining for the fjords while the Government used bogus figures from its own employees to bring in national house arrest and crush small businesses. 

But now they're back baby!

But Amnesty International UK's policing expert warned that arming volunteer officers is 'dangerous' and will inevitably lead to 'more instances of misuse, serious harm and death from Tasers'. 

Oliver Feeley-Sprague.....

Stop laughing you oiks! 

Oliver Feeley-Sprague, a member of the independent advisory group to the National Police Chiefs' Council lead on Tasers....

Well, isn't that just great? The public had the opportunity to vote for a party that was totally in tune with Amnesty International's agenda in December 2019... and they gave the other guys an eighty-seat majority but apparently none of that matters. Amnesia Intentional (motto: just forget about how many of our baby seals have turned out to be spitting cobras)  might be toxic at the ballot box but that's no reason why they can't drive public policy. 

Mandate? They don't need no stinking mandate!

Back to my usual point: if the cuckservatives really were all about electability, well, here's a £1,000 note lying on the ground that none of them want to pick it up. Kicking these entitled snooty prats to the kerb would do more for the Tories electoral prospects than any number of fine-tuned facebook ads and cutesy slogans. But no, they won't do it. 

Spoiler alert: the left doesn't rely on obscure committees operating closed doors because its agenda is popular, and the cucks don't oppose actual conservatism because it isn't. 

Electability: It Used To Be A Thing

Hey, I'm so old I can remember Fat Dave Cameron's Reign of Error when we were constantly told that the Tory Party had to throw any conservatism whatsoever overboard in pursuit of the votes of a supposed group of moderates who would totally vote Conservative except for the whole 'conservatism' thing. 

It was all about 'electability' you guys!

How times have changed - and not just because the party of BoJo and Crazy Dom Cummings managed to get more than twice as many votes in one go as electoral super genius Fat Dave managed in two attempts combined. Don't be shocked, but with vague signs of actual conservatism in the Conservative Party, the cucks have suddenly decided that crude vote chasing in no substitute for principle after all. Nope, now they've finally found some hills that are worth dying on. 

Like the very vital human right of spoilt rich kids to harass member of the public. 

Or protecting members of one of our most vulnerable communities: sex offenders. 

And yes, that is *that* Crispin Blunt.

Truly, he is a vote-winning machine. Either that or 'electability' was only ever a bogus concept used to purge anyone with actual conservative views from the Grifters Party. 

They Went Full Karen - Never Go Full Karen

I'm a firm believer that our country's biggest problem is that we have a governing class that thinks it's way smarter than everyone else, but couldn't empty water out of a kettle if you put the instructions on the bottom. 

Consider Boris Johnson. 

Here's a guy who owes his job to two things. There was the Referendum, when a scratch army of butchers, bakers and candlestick makers beat the smart set, and then there was the 2019 election when regular Joe's across the North told a bunch of carpetbagging Labour MPs to shove it.  So, naturally, once he took office he filled his staff with snooty Metro twerps like Allegra Stratton, the Guardianista ex-Beeboid. 

Hey, how was he to know that people who've spent years explaining why their votes should count more than yours, would also believe a lockdown only applies to poor people?

People haven't been as unjustifiably shocked by bad behaviour since it turned out Claudia Webbe was nutso, just like us raycissts always said she was. 

Now he's dealing with an ever bigger puzzle. How come the people who think you should have to have written permission before you can see grandma won't vote for the party of small government? 

Hey, it's almost like  the Govern Me Harder Daddy! set already have their own parties to vote for.

Meanwhile, if you're one of those weirdos who wants to run your own life, you can shove it. The Genius Squad at Tory Central Office have decided that pandering to crazed hysterics is the way to go. 

Don't Mention The...

Never change UnHerd! It's the website that promises to 'to push back against the herd mentality with new and bold thinking' yet always ends up serving up conventional wisdom, just with a wacky haircut. 

Consider Exhibit A here.

Yep, I'll give him some credit for talking about the housing market and actually mentioning the demand side of the equation but he never mentions the one thing pushing up demand more than anything else. 

Y'know, THAT thing, O*** B******.

Aside from anything else, it renders the whole article pointless. If it's electoral viability you're after, you should probably be concerned about the left's determination to import a whole new electorate.But no - the cuckservatives will do everything to preserve muh electability except the one thing they need to do.

Winning elections is kind of important but not if it means risking their dinner party invitations, you guys!

Cuckservatives: 'We Identify As Electable'

Like I said over at J's place, looks like another success for Operation Wokegeld.

Yep, another identitarian-conservative who turns out to be certainly the former but not so much the latter. 

Honestly, it's enough to make you nostalgic for the old days when you bribed a guy and he stayed bribed. 

Meanwhile, how about tolerating the fact some people don't want their five year old daughter exposed to someone's 'lady penis'? Any 'openness' to that world view? 

But isn't this just the perfect example of the bogusness of the cuckservatives position? We were told that the Tory Party needed to embrace these people to stay electorally viable. Now - in a stunning development no one could possibly have predicted - it turns out they're unhinged lunatics, it must be time to ditch them, right? 

Right, cucks? 

Another £1,000 Note Left Lying On The Ground

Labour may have signed up for Lockdown4Eva but at least Sir Kneelalot has found someone who does deserve freedom: this guy. 

Pitchfork, 61, raped and murdered 15-year-olds Lynda Mann and Dawn Ashworth in the 1980s - and is now due to be released on parole.   

Sir Keir told LBC Pitchfork had 'served a long sentence and he served the sentence imposed on him by the court, and under our system that means there comes a point at which he has to be released'. 

First things first: you'd think a former prosecutor would know that life terms have a minimum tariff, not a maximum one. 

Equally, isn't this the guy who wants to ban 'conversion therapies'?

Yep, apparently, sexual orientation is fixed (when it's one liberals approve of) but also fluid (when it's one they don't). 

So, you know, you can tell it's all totally based on hard science. 

Tony Blair had the 'People's Princess', now his successor has the 'People's Paedo'. 

Truly, when it comes to judging the public mood, he has the sure touch of Captain Hook. 

The cliché is to call this sort of thing virtue signalling, but is it really? It's more like a banker setting fire to a £50 note in front of a homeless guy. They're happy to talk about the importance of releasing degenerate predators, but they know full well their kids will never end up living next door to Mikey Murderpants. 

Meanwhile, suggest to actual voters that we need to carefully balance the rights of innocent children with those of homicidal perverts and see what happens. This is not really a tough issue for anyone outside the Woketopia of north London. 

And again I return to a familiar point: the sheer bogusness of the Cringe Cons. The David Cameron wing of the Tory Party keeps claiming that they're totes conservative, you guys, but they just think the Tories need to tone it down to reach out to centrists. Hence, the jettisoning of conservative principles all through Fat Dave's reign of error. 

Yeah, OK.

Well, here's where all the votes are on the right - at least if you define 'not releasing dangerous savages' as right wing - and these guys are AWOL. 

They should be airdropping copies of Starmer's statement into every marginal constituency in the land, but no: they're all about electabilty right up until it means losing dinner party invitations. 

I've Got 'Wish I Was In Stockholm Syndrome'

While Sweden is open for business, we're all still chained to the radiator in Matt Hancock's cellar. 

What's worse, some weasels even lobbied for the latest set of restrictions:

Mayor of Liverpool Joe Anderson has called for a 'circuit breaker' or stricter lockdown to stop the spread of the virus.

He told The Daily Telegraph last night: 'For me, it is only a matter of time because the virus isn't able to be controlled in the city with the restrictions we have now.  

'We need a circuit breaker or stricter lockdown to try to stop the virus spreading.

 

 

Yep, this guy:

I know what you're thinking but no, it was actually his brother who was strangled by Princess Leia. 

At least we've found one guy who might actually get some protection from corona through wearing a Boris Burka - just as long as he keeps it on all day. 

I'm guessing it makes sense though: virtue signalers are almost uniformly amoral scum, so why wouldn't a health nazi be a physical wreck? 

You know you're a leftist when... you're worried about your health so you want everyone else to change their lifestyle. 

Joe is fat so the rest of us have to stay indoors - but at least we'll be safer there, right?

Oops. 

No, my bad! Turns out the sunlight/Vitamin D thing has been debunked by research. And when I say 'research' I, of course, mean 'no research at all'.

So, for those of you keeping score at home, HMG is lobbing huge amount of cash at various megacorps to trial dubious new technologies, but they can't spare pennies in the pound to check out a perfectly safe, easily available, potential treatment.

Like I keep saying, it's not a 'conspiracy theory' if it's something they're actually doing.

Also, I'm starting to think we owe Captain Edward Smith a posthumous apology. At least he only hit the iceberg once. If Captain Hancock had been on the bridge, the Titanic would have been bouncing round like a pinball.  

Meanwhile, in das Reich, they're trying something else. Remember how a lot of the early cases were people who'd shared private jets, chalets in ski resorts or the like?  In other words, places with very little actual air flow? The Germans do, hence why they're trialing a whole new technology, called a 'window'. 

It's not as daft as it seems. Infection not only requires exposure to the virus, but exposure to enough of the virus over a short time (think of it as needing a high enough dose). In fact, I'm sure our government will soon go the same way, just as soon as they can work out a way to give BAe Systems a one billion pound contract to develop smart windows connected to the internet. 

Right now though - not being liberals - we're free to do this stuff for ourselves: don't eat like a pig, maintain a balanced diet, get out in the open air as much as possible, and keep a good airflow if you must stay inside. 

You know, sort of like your mother always told you to do. In fact, one might even say this kind of knowledge was the accumulated wisdom of generations of our ancestors on dealing with this sort of thing. 

Say, wasn't there an organisation that used to support this kind of thing? Some kind of group for conserving traditional values? 

Beats me: I'm stuck down here, chained to the radiator, with Matt Hancock screaming that I put the muzzle on my face or I get the hose again. 

Who Could Have Seen This Coming?

I keep reminding people: 'freedom of the press' is short for 'freedom of the printing press'. It means anyone is free to publish whatever they want and they don't need some kind of 'printing licence'. 

In other words, despite what the MSM keeps implying, it's the exact opposite of the idea that there is some kind of elite group out there called the 'press' who have special rights not granted to other citizens. There's no legal basis for that belief, but the idea that they're some kind of journalistic jedis is at the heart of why so much modern reporting is awful. Too many of these guys identify more with the people they're supposed to be reporting on than they do with the public they hope will actually buy their lousy papers. 

On the plus side, at least there's some amusement to be found in the outraged reporting every time an MSM journalist is treated like one of the peasantry. 

Here's today's example.

To quote the mighty John McLane: welcome to the party, pal!

Hey, nothing personal - she is one of the least worst journos out there and it's great that the MSM has finally started to talk about this stuff, but Joe Citizen has had to put up with this kind of censorship for years and these guys were fine with that. 

Actually, they were more than fine. No end of ink was spilled on the vitally vital importance of 'clamping down on online extremism'. Now - amazingly - it turns out that 'extremism' turns out to mean 'anything the political establishment doesn't approve of'. Who could have seen that coming? 

Not our professional journaljismers, hence why most people are only now seeing stuff like this:

The Government have been pressurising social media companies to tackle 'false and misleading narratives' about Covid, and through its Rapid Response Unit claims to have 'resolved' 70 such incidents a week.

You know, I can't help thinking that .gov setting up a real life Ministry of Truth might be something worth reporting on even before it started to affect the elect? 

Just a hunch.

And it gets worse. Check out the reporting in the sidebar on the censorship of Lionel Shriver. Not only is she in no way a rhetorical bomb thrower or extremist, the point she was making was both true and useful: obesity increases the risk from the dreaded C-virus. Not only is that true, what if it wasn't? Is YouTube worried people will lose weight unnecessarily and be left with nothing more than a drastically reduced risk of cancer, heart disease and diabetes? 

As I was saying, it's not a conspiracy if it they're doing it openly. 

Major Disaster Is Not Happy

I take it all back. Professional Conservatives really are more sophisticated and nuanced than the knuckle-draggers in the conservative base. Consider Exhibit A

Hey, I don't mind the colourful language or even the breaches of the code of conduct, but the real obscenity is that it's this that finally brings this guy out of his coma. 

Manchester bombing? Whateva! 

Fellow veterans being targeted with bogus war crimes charges? Zzzzzz 

People opposing Boris Burkas? Unleash the hounds!

You can't even say it's due to the seriousness of the situation itself. Even if we're only talking specifically about the WuFlu, where's the outrage at Public Health England's dog in the manger act, or Professor Pantsonfire Ferguson still having a job?

Nope, nothing to say about any of this apparently. It's just uppity citizens that grinds his gears.  

Maybe this guy's just confused? Maybe he thinks his role is to represent the state and hold the public to account, not the other way round? 

It seems to be a common problem these days. 

Tories Gotta Tory

Shocking news everyone! It turns out that giving that scorpion a ride across the river worked out badly after all. 

Who could have predicted that a famously publicity hungry media luvvie would make like a low-rent Martin Luther as soon as the time was right? 

Oh, yeah, everyone - except the genius set at Conservative Central Office. These guys keep lecturing the supposed knuckle-draggers in the conservative base about the importance of electability, then they go out there and step on a rake. 

And that's not even the worst of it. The whole reason the public gave the Tories an eighty seat majority is disgust with this kind of thing. The Tories were voted in precisely because the public have had enough of Metro-liberals being parachuted into top jobs despite never being elected to a parish council. 

We wanted a change but instead we got Continuity Cameron!

This Is Why Labour Can't Win Elections

If you had Theresa May in the 'Strange New Respect' sweepstake, collect your winnings: she's the latest Tory that the MSM has suddenly decided is a far-sighted visionary (now she's started attacking conservatives).

Personally, I'm pretty sure that pointing out that someone lacks the very special expertise of our foreign policy establishment may not be the killer point the usual suspects think it is. These are the people who turned Libya into a hell hole, tried to get us into Syria on the same side as ISIS and want to hand over our infrastructure to China. Basically, they're the Typhoid Mary of foreign policy. Not being in their little club sounds like a good thing to me.

Apparently, I'm not the only one, hence why BoJo got a huge majority - unlike certain people I could mention.

And all this is without considering the wider issues. Isn't the Labour Party's position pretty much the literal opposite of what their founders believed? Now the People's Party is claiming that, sure, you proles can go and vote for whoever you want, but the really important stuff needs to be left to our new aristocracy, like His Grace, Mark, Duke of Sedwill.

No one knows who these people are or how they got their jobs or even who they think they're accountable to. Apparently, paying a huge pile of cash plus a solid gold pension to civil servants, no matter how terrible they are at their job, is now a permanent feature of British life. Freedom of speech and equality under the law are disposable, but paying money to snoots is part of what makes us a civilised nation.

If the PM can't replace a useless civil servant, who can? Seriously, if we had any working journalists in this country they'd ask Starmer about this: just who can fire one of these guys? What would be a sacking offence?

Nope, Labour has supported all manner of PC witchunts against regular Joes, but the People's Party has  now thrown a ring of steel around the snoot class, yet somehow they keep losing elections. 

The Elephant Entering The Room

The Honorable Representative from the Great State of Texas asks an important question:

Raises the question: if a global pandemic is a concern, why would we want policies that encourage more people crossing illegally & released unaccounted for into the country?

Well, quite. Of course, round here, BoJo's just said 'hold my champers'.

Forget sneaking in, they won't even stop anyone jetting in from Venice. It's a plague and a pandemic, but let's not go crazy here and start questioning muh open borders.

The left has spent a hundred years sneering at World War I generals and their cold-blooded decisions to keep throwing away lives with hopeless, head on attacks. Now, suddenly, open borders are in the firing line and these people are all but giving out white feathers to anyone who questions the sanity of Italian citizens being locked down and unable to go anywhere.... except Heathrow.

Hey, I consider The Omega Man to be an underrated conservative classic, but I don't want to live in it!

All of which explains BoJo's reluctance to do.... well, anything really. Unlike the mainstream of the left, he's at least smart enough to realise the obvious problem with putting all manner of limits on people inside the UK, but none at all on people arriving here. He's just not smart enough to realise that he's torpedoed the exact reason why he got a majority in the first place.

The whole reason why Boris Johnson got a whacking majority where Fat Dave and Theresa Won't failed is precisely because he came across as someone who regarded Britain as something more than just some failing division of a global multinational. Fat Dave in particular always looked like he'd be quite happy to jump ship and go be PM of somewhere else if they offered him the right deal. Boris was supposed to be better than that, but it turns out that when push came to shove, his true loyalty was to Globacorp after all.

Getting Ahead Of The Myth Making

Bad news everyone! Roland Rudd's sister has joined Boris Johnson's brother and Winston Churchill's grandson in exiting the Tory Party.

If the Tories keep going on like this, they're going to lose their sponsorship deal with ancestry.com.

Also: Diversity Is Our Strength, you guys!

Ambitious young white kids who want to join the police are getting the door slammed in their face, but apparently the Tory Party can never have enough snoots - even ones that are related to one of the country's craziest remoaners.

That's not even the worst of it! Not only are we expected to be shocked - shocked - to find that remoaner Amber Rudd is outrageously outraged by BoJo's outrageous behavior, we're also being told this proves the Tory Party is risking electoral disaster by losing proven vote winners like Amber Rudd.

Hey, if Amber Rudd is such a perfect example of the Nu Tory Wizards of Smart, how come she never cast her spell over her own constituency.

Yes, indeed: 346 vote majority! That's what it takes for the MSM to hail you as an expert on electability.

Vacuous Viceroy of Victimhood Vacates Office

In amongst all the other resignations, I almost missed our girl in the news! House of Dumb heroine Margo James, who is a lesbian, has resigned from the government to vote against Brexit.

Truly, Fat Dave Cameron is the gift who keeps on giving. Look at the track record of his 'A-list' candidates. There's Louise Mensch, the Queen of Trump Derangement Syndrome, Sarah Wollaston and Heidi Allen, both rising stars in the sinking ship of WTF UK and now Margo James, who is a lesbian, the member for Brussels Central.

Apparently, 'A-list' was short for 'Absolutely Not Conservative At All List'.

Here's the thing though. The point isn't that Margo James, who is a lesbian, is a grifter and a fraud. That could describe most of the House. It's that right from the off, Margo James, who is a lesbian, has shamelessly, and solely,  traded on her supposed victimhood.

Don't be shocked but apparently she's actually a lesbian.

I know, right? Who knew?

Yep, she stuck it to The Man by being parachuted into a safe seat amidst eight bazillon glowing profiles in the MSM.

Take that you almost entirely mythical bunch of right-wing reactionaries - finally bubble-headed Metropolitan snoots will have a voice in this country!

Anyone who pointed out that a stoned parrot with a stutter could give a more coherent explanation of conservative values than this hag was denounced by her fellow snoots as an evily evil homophobe!

And no point asking why it had to be specifically Margo James, who is a lesbian, who was appointed as the Member for Lesbos. Aren't there plenty of other lesbians out there with no idea about conservative values?

It's worth revisiting because it gives the lie to the cucks' Myth of a Golden Age of Political Civility pre-2016. They mean 'civility' in the sense that they could run unhinged editorials denouncing actual conservatives and no one was allowed to answer back. If you happened to, say, object to them putting an empty-headed Metro-luvvie into Parliament then all bets were off: no civility for you.

Here's Ace on a similar phenomenon in the US:

They're cowards and weaklings as warriors, but they are bold and fierce as traitors.

"Republicans" who have been sluggish, conciliatory, and soft when allegedly on the conservative side will suddenly become hard-charging death-or-glory hack-and-slashers when they scent the blood of their true enemies -- actual conservatives.

They're traitors. Not by circumstance, but by conviction. 

Yep.

This is normally the point where I remind everyone that these people keep telling us  that they can't bring in any actual conservative policies for reason of muh electability, even while they fiercely defend horrendously unpopular leftist nonsense. Well, this time they went one better. This time they didn't even hide behind an actual issue: it was a blatant exercise in class privilege and entitlement. Margo James, who is a lesbian, might lack any actual qualifications for political office, but she sure is a paid up member of the snootocracy.

Yes, not everyone who claimed Fraudella McWorthless was qualified for a seat in Parliament was a liar - I'm sure there were also some idiots in  there as well, but most of the people pushing this useless cow knew exactly what they were doing, and they're out there right now, claiming that 'we need to bring the country together post-Brexit'.
 
Nope, they're lying again. They don't want to bring the country back together. On the contrary, they want to go back to the good old days pre-2016 when the country was split in two. The snoots got to run the country like a private members club, and everyone else just got the bill. 

What's happened post-2016 isn't a breakdown in civility, it's a breakdown in gullibility. The public finally understand who exactly these people are.

Another £1,000 Note Left On The Ground

Like I keep saying, the weirdest myth in British politics is that Tory 'modernisers' are just staunch conservatives  forced by political reality to moderate their views.

Just no: any honest analysis of the squish wing of the Tory Party makes it obvious that not only are they not savvy political geniuses, but that they actually take leftist positions even where it means losing votes.

Consider Exhibit A.

Just to ram the point home: the police didn't 'fail to put the pieces together' or 'miss warning signs', they were fully aware that an active predator was grooming children and choose to act against the woman warning families to protect their kids. In effect, the police did all but keep lookout for a sexual predator.

Who the hell voted for this?  Answer: no one. Hence, why the snoot class had to pass the Human Rights Act and rely on the loose wording and their fellow snoots on the bench to do the rest.

Call it a hunch, but I'm thinking repealing the Pedophile Safety At Work Act might be a vote winner. Oh.... and also the right thing to do, if anyone cares about that anymore. So how come the Certified Super Geniuses at Tory HQ can't see this?

Actually, the real question is how come this is the one hill they will die on?

Ah well, this is indeed the Rosetta Stone of Tory moderniser rhetoric.  They're all about the electability, except for when that might conflict with their dinner party invitations.

That's their North Star around which all else revolves.

Our worthless elite, lacking any actual qualifications for elite status except for the arrogance and entitlement, define themselves entirely by opposition to the common morality.  Hence, they claim that the public's abhorrence for pedophiles is clearly proof of their crudity and lack of sophistication - and so they defend the kind of junk science that announces that 'Tom' is Certified Safe, even while he's stalking his next victims.

No, don't bother asking any of these staunch supporters of the rehab industry where they feel the balance lies between psychoanalytic strategies to rehabilitation and CBT-based approaches. They don't need to know anything about what they claim to support, they just know that the supporting phoney-baloney pseudo-science makes you a cut above the common rabble.

And that's how we ended up with an allegedly conservative party supporting the right of public servants to not only release a dangerous predator onto the streets, but to set him up in a free house next to a whole bunch of kids, stand by while he grooms his next victims and then use the law to stop anyone talking about it.

This kind of thing is why ordinary people now think this country doesn't work for them anymore. Hence, the rise of The Brexit Party. Meanwhile, the Tory modernisers are deep in the bunker, explaining how it's all down to dark money from the Russians.

They Have No Idea Why This Keeps Happening....

Truly, Fat Dave Cameron is the gift that keeps on giving: now World Famous Moderate Muslim Sayeeda Warsi is pushing the crazed Islamist-inspired definition of Islamophobia (speaking personally, I prefer the Christopher Hitchens definition 'a word created by fascists, used by cowards, to manipulate morons.')

Lest we forget, that's Baroness Warsi, after Fat Dave decided the whole 'due diligence' thing was for squares. Still, at least his PC outreach efforts meant he was able to bring onboard rock-ribbed conservatives like Sarah Wollaston and Heidi Allen... say, does anyone know what they're doing these days?

You know, thinking about it, a guy could almost think those mean old bigots had a point. Maybe selecting professional victims and parachuting them into safe seats or the House of Lords isn't such a good idea after all? Not only are they hideously unqualified for the job, it turns out it's not even good politics.

Apart from that it was a brilliant plan!

Before they rewrite history, remember that this whole Diversity Uber Alles - and especially uber competence - thing was cooked up by the Certified Genius Class in London. The bumpkins were the ones who said it was a farce to begin with - and got called bigots for doing so. Now it turns out the hicks were right and the snoots were wrong, but don't ask them for any comment on this - they're too busy trying to work out why they're losing votes to The Brexit Party.
