This might be premature

You can get help with that problem these days.

Hold up! Why am I just hearing about this now?

Weird coincidence that this happened as four men were trespassing on his home in Yorkshire but it doesn’t seem like a coordinated thing.

Do not let the bigots and bullies win

Said one of the worst bigots and bullies in a party largely made up of some pretty terrible people.

It is also understood that the party will return £100,000 in donations to the businessman that he has made since Sir Keir Starmer took charge of Labour.

…

Posting on X, Mr Craig said he had “enjoyed the odd bet for fun” throughout his life, adding: "A few weeks ago when I thought I would never win this seat I put a bet on the Tories to win here with the intention of giving any winnings to local charities.

He clearly has more than enough cash, just donate straight to charity.

That would be the dream scenario and a decade back I’d be fine with rolling those dice but then BoJo and Trump got elected and I worry that an “outsider” populist candidate could pull off the same trick.

These need not be mutually exclusive - just imagine if some mad man combined the two!

Thanks, I hate it.

Trying to block the sun from your own private aircraft carrier is proper Bond villain territory. At least tech CEOs don’t look like Bond villains, oh hold on…

That’s the community refers to in his post, it’s not the cause of federation issues which presumably happened with the update.

Seems perfect.

Careful, we don’t allow the N word on here.

Brilliant!

We are and DB0 are.

That’s the right wing media for you. I don’t have them blocked in my newsfeed so I can see what they are up to and it is a completely different world - pretty much anything green gets hammered.

Does he want to destroy the Conservative party and rebuild it in his image[?]

This is my worry - his sudden U-turn suggests someone has had serious words with him about how this is the best time to strike as the stars have aligned to show a route for him to get into power. He doesn’t need to win (m)any seats, he just needs to wreck the Tories chances in a number of seats, dragging them to historic lows and then propose some kind of merger as the best way to remove the threat. With so few MPs left and a desperation in the party, he can pitch himself as the best candidate to beat Starmer and, he may well be.

It would make the Tory party into the National Front Lite but they’re already most of the way there:

all these policies would be at home in a Thatcher-era National Front manifesto, and they are all now promoted by the Conservative party.

It Can’t Happen Here?

How would we be able to tell the difference afterwards? Would it not be better to go and shit on the water companies or (as I have mentioned before) take a leaf from French farmers and drive a muck-spreader up to their HQ and give them the lot.
