Tory election not going well is it?

Interesting to follow this

? Met Police say they are looking into two allegations of “electoral fraud and malpractice" regarding offers from the Conservatives to Brexit Party candidates to incentivise them to stand down ?

Several Brexit Party figures claim they were offered inducements. Tories deny.

Watch this closely. It may be one of those stories, like phone-hacking, which initially most in the mainstream dismiss and then suddenly become explosive and uncontainable. If the Tories are guilty of what they’ve been accused of it could not be more serious for them

WWM2 both citations are pertinent, thank you. Sarah Wollaston's is shocking, if true. Members of the Brexit Party offered peerages and jobs to stand down?

The police are investigating, whilst Johnson says it's nonsense, so it's probably true.

Just watching a programme about Obama.

Blimey how low we have fallen in our politicians and their rhetoric.

It is frightening

Many people (me included) could listen to Obama for hours. He is a wonderful orator.

That said, an awful lot of Americans thought he was a crap President.

Yes, Amagram I agree with much of what you say, which is why it amused/surprised me that a couple of posters on here took such issue with mopping/ knowing rhymes.

That ‘relatable’ comment was just weird.I don’t relate to BJ or JC or any leader of any political party, male or female.Who does?

Farage says there were ‘hints’ of being offered a peerage, a hint isn’t a bald statement, so impossible to prove.

You do feel the need to defend this man don't you Lemongrove? Does this make you a 'Johnsonista' or perhaps a 'Borista'?

I should be careful or you will have one person constantly calling you such things. We've all seen that happen on GN.

I never respond to posts made by GGM3.....

Urmston Obama seemed to have it all didn’t he, but really wasn’t all that liked it seems.I think many voters felt disappointed in him somehow.

GGMk3 - Borista seems more appropriate somehow

It sounds like someone who makes lattes SirC

Only if you put the emphasis on the second syllable

I'm afraid it suggests 'boring' to me...

I quite liked it SirChenjin

The latest Tory car crash. This time with Gove in the driving seat.

If you’ve not watched this interview by
@C4Ciaran
- watch it.

It is brilliant. The juxtaposition of
@michael_gove
spluttering nonsense & getting lost in his own words against Ciaran’s ultra-calm & forensic questioning is a thing of beauty.

You can watch the full interview with Michael Gove here: youtu.be/NO2zT9-B2X4

The setting - a cattle shed with the noise and resulting excrement - seemed fitting for Gove’s poor attempt at justifying their reasons for duping the public. He didn’t do a very good job, did he.

Sadly, I'm not sure the public (whoever they are) cares.

Anyone seen Mogg lately?.

His car is well and truly written off

I can't say I'm that bothered about Rees-Mogg. The Conservatives seem to have enough liars and acolytes to take his place. I'm more concerned about the lies they churn out on a daily basis.
