David Cameron to give a statement to the house tomorrow

Oh maybe thats when he will blame Osborne annie

Be interesting, a must listen to

They have just been discussing on the Sky Newspaper review whether IDS will have the opportunity to make a statement too.

The spin Dr`s will be hard at it writing that speech . Damage limitation exercise !

Yes he is going to try to calm things but knowing the Tories wiĺl be hard pushed. No one can do back biting and unpleasantness and inuendo like the Tories

According to the Times, he's blaming Osborne for the 'row' over disability cuts.

Wonder who GO will blame?

Here we go again, remember when Oliver Letwin put his foot in things and then couldn't be found , it became quite a joke like where's Wally, the press were asking where's Letwin. So I ask, where's Georgie ? He should speak out, doubt he is skiing with Boris , perhaps he has gone ahead to Lanzarote to wait for Dave .

The Mail is backing IDS

One of the BBC reporters said that what we are hearing from the various Tory bids trashi g each other is nothing like what is being said away from public view. She said it would make your hair turn blue if you could hear them.
Personally I would prefer red

Obviously whitewave!

Is GO expected in the chamber today or is he in hiding?

They will find a way to wiggle and lie their way out of this whitewave, bet there is more than 'oh dear' being said though. All this - I have great respect for Ian , through gritted teeth , so funny , such lies

Talk of Gideon being moved to the FO post referendum.

If Osbourne moves to the FO surely he will stop wearing those hard hats , who would become chancellor?

Of course it very much depends on the referendum outcome. If is out then GO DC etc are sunk without trace.

If Osbourne moves to the FO surely he will stop wearing those hard hats....

I think you'd need hard hats anywhere in the Middle East at the mo. I imagine the FO job might involve going there at some stage....

It seems we live in interesting times

Fascinating to read your contributions on this link and also on the one about lies or spin.

"No one can do back biting and unpleasantness and inuendo like the Tories".

Substitute for 'The Tories with 'the Jews', 'black people', 'Muslims' and so on and see how acceptable that sentence is.

I seriously think that, even with all the kerfuffle with the SNP and Miliband's 'Edstone' one reason why the left was quietly trounced in the last election was the invective of the left. I heard with my own ears and saw in the press and on Facebook Labour supporters calling Conservatives 'fascists', 'racists, 'bigots, 'Kippers' and 'Tories' (uttered in tones of loathing.) These same Conservatives being nice, kind, moral, responsible, pleasant, well mannered, hardworking, taxpaying, charity-donating, volunteering, decent people. They never answered back. They just voted.

Kippers are UKIP members Lilyflower not Conservatives (which I presume you do find acceptable). I seem to think they used it first to describe themselves. "Tory" has a long history and has often been used as shorthand for Conservative - from about 1830 apparently.

Do you think you may be being a tad over-sensitive? If you associate yourself with politics which some abhor you may feel the comments are personal but that happens to those who declare themselves in favour of any political party surely.

He'll bells, how sensitive can a person be, I have been classed as a member of the loony left by several tories here , I don't squeal

Ed Milliband is a .jew by the by

lily I was talking about Westminster MPs and if you knew me you would know I didn't mean Tory supporters on GN. That simply isn't my style.

Try putting 'Corbynites' in there too or any group!

The right wing media, and some individuals too are as voraciously ranting against ' Corbynites'. It happens in both directions. Don't take it personally it is politics after all!

If a person takes a strong stance they should expect a strong riposte!

Who was that said to pen?
