I read this with Vicky Pollard echoing around my head. Most agreeable.

What a fucking whining little brat

It’s a joyful read of a Tufton Street mouthpiece who knows he’s run out of rope.

Aaaaagh, this twat's standing in Wellingborough again. Then again, if it helps prevent the Tories getting the seat back...

More political genius here. Bloke whose net worth just went up £120m refusing to pay £1,000 to charity for lost bet. That's actually made the crassness of the original bet even worse.

Is that why the government paid the bloke to go?

Has Rishi drafted Kristi Noem onto his campaign team? Can’t find any other reference to this one, though.

Something is telling me that this is shaping up to be the Tories' worst general election campaign since Theresa May's near catastrophe in 2017. A little bonus from the election gods, there. Which I'm very happy to take.

Ah yes, the unnamed mystery man of unknown origins.
What happened to him? I heard he did a bunk with his £3k but nothing since, has anybody found him yet?

I posted a link to Conservative Home earlier, where the writer (John Oxley) said he wouldn't be surprised if some Tory MPs issued their own manifestos before the campaign is done. Perhaps Kruger is going to do that. He's already talking like he's running as an Independent or for Reform. Probably only the fact that he's in one of the safest seats that's keeping him in the Tories at all.

Why? I mean I assume he didn't rock up at a warehouse full of Tory councillors posing as staff and say, "Hi, I'm Rishi and I hate dogs... with their nasty wet noses and silly waggy tails"* so what was the context?

*though the way his campaign's going so far, I'm minded that assumption is the mother of all fuck ups.

Sunak is "delivering" the impossible - making Theresa May seem empathetic by comparison.

I'm sure he will make a personality match with other tech bros like Zuckerberg and Musk.

I don't think Dunning gets his fair share of the limelight.

Apparently wanted 6 debates in 6 weeks during the Euros,I don’t want to watch a single second more of Rishi Sunak and his gaslights who the hell is going watch 6.

Starmer says he will do the 2 format that was done in 2019.

Like don’t they have 3 in America over about 3 months,if we have to have them 2 is about right, perhaps 1 for a chancellors if they want.

Then rest should be local.

I find the "Rishi Lashes Out" the hardest part to believe of that statement.

Starmer hasn't the courage to debate with Sunak? Would that be the same Starmer who routinely dismantles Sunak comprehensively every fucking week at PMQs? :lol:
