Interesting that Rishi and Raab have both refused to repeat the Savile smear. Presumably because they both know it’s libellous?
Hindsight is a marvellous thing...Hilarious the way numerous Tory MPs are parroting the latest “save Boris” dictat- “all yesterdays resignations were part of his plan.” Yeah right.
Well quite. They’re stupid but not that stupid.Interesting that Rishi and Raab have both refused to repeat the Savile smear. Presumably because they both know it’s libellous?
Surprised he didn’t say people should think about closing at least one wing of their mansions and cutting down on staff nos. Talk about being tone deaf. Nothing like a multi millionaire lecturing you on how to “live within your means.”Well quite. They’re stupid but not that stupid.
Did anyone hear Sunak ( worth about £200 million and married to the daughter of a billionaire ) telling us plebs that the best way to cope with the rise in prices and the extortionate cost of fuel was to live within our means?
Does he honestly believe we hadn’t thought of that? Or tried it?
Next thing they will be telling me is to stop stocking up on fabarge eggs!Well quite. They’re stupid but not that stupid.

Well I must admit I am loathe to cut down on my Faberge Egg collection. Think I will just fire The Butler and a couple of Footmen instead.Next thing they will be telling me is to stop stocking up on fabarge eggs!
This is what Sunak will have manage if he is to become leader. People pointing out that how does he know what it's like to be poor etc.
Hmm, If fire the butler, who will squeeze my toothpaste onto my toothbrush?Well I must admit I am loathe to cut down on my Faberge Egg collection. Think I will just fire The Butler and a couple of Footmen instead.
I asked myself that when Daisy wasn’t available to close the curtains, but I have to remember we’re all in this together.Hmm, If fire the butler, who will squeeze my toothpaste onto my toothbrush?
I think most people accept that politicians are likely to be richer than them. What they don’t like is being lectured on needing to “live within their means” by politicians who have no idea what that would actually be like. So if Sunak becomes leader he needs to avoid those sort of remarks.This is what Sunak will have manage if he is to become leader.

At this point I gravitate, as always, to Sir Terry Pratchett. The Samuel Vimes Boots Theory of Socioeconomic unfairness …Surprised he didn’t say people should think about closing at least one wing of their mansions and cutting down on staff nos.

If they think I’m giving up my Faberge Eggs they’ve got another think coming. I know we have to tighten our belts but that’s a bit much. They’ll be asking me to only feed my peacocks once a week next.Well I must admit I am loathe to cut down on my Faberge Egg collection.

Is anyone else listening to LBC? David Lammy was talking to Ian Blackford and they were discussing how there a photos being circulated in MP Whats App groups that haven’t yet been leaked and Lammy implied that they may or may not include dodgy stuff. I can’t remember the exact wording, but I thought that was interesting. My feeling was drug taking but maybe I’m completely barking up the wrong tree? Either way I wonder how long it will take Cummings to leak those to the press?
Johnsons new media advisors first idea:Ooh interesting. Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest.
I’ve read a few reports today that Johnson is being advised to sack Sunak for his lack of loyalty
Apparently the ‘official photographer’ took photos at one of the parties and there is a picture of Johnson, beer in hand, standing next to none other than Rishi Sunak. Presumably that rules Sunak out of taking over?
