#The Tories were always gross but half of them seem to have lost touch with reality and to base their speeches off dubious facebook posts

Dear God, Westminster was always bad but lately it’s like the Tories have been engaged in a secret contest to see who can come out with the most absolutely rancid takes in the Commons

#I think Miriam Cates has won the last two PMQs on that front she just stands up and spews out the most hateful Daily Mail level lies #And fails to provide any credible evidence #But in the wake of Keir Starmer's unbelievably stupid decision-making over the last week #We've also been subjected to unhinged rants from the Dishonourable Member for North East Somerset (I mean more unhinged than usual) #And numerous other MPs (and members of the Lords) holding forth in a manner that Donald Trump would have thought gauche #The Tories were always gross but half of them seem to have lost touch with reality and to base their speeches off dubious facebook posts #The front bench (packed- you will no doubt remember- with appalling examples like Suella Braverman) look tame by comparison #As if we needed any more evidence that this country has been dragged to the (far) right #We don't even have to look at the Labour party's centre-right approach to certain issues; the Tories are wearing tinfoil hats in parliament #Please please let Miriam Cates be trounced in the next election though dear god she has to go she lowers the IQ of the whole chamber #Praying that the electors of Penistone and Stocksbridge come to their senses and oust her as soon as they can #Michael Fabricant and Lee Anderson are also contenders for that position but they haven't offended me quite so deeply this week
