Maybe at the local elections on Thursday people will attempt to give the govt a bloody nose , although it has to be said the choice is very limited

I can see little difference between the parties, very little to induce the electorate to come out, though I agree there will be some attempts to make the Government take notice. Party politics stink. No real thought for constituents just points scoring.

With apologies to the Daily Mash....
DRIVING to Barnard Castle has been overtaken by looking up tractors and being ambushed by porn as the worst excuse you have ever heard.
The reigning champion of shittest justification ever has been knocked off the top spot by Neil Parish’s claim that he was looking up tractors when he was surprised by pornographic images.
Martin Bishop from Daventry said: “Dominic Cumming’s bullshit excuse that he was driving to Barnard Castle to test his eyesight had a good run. And to be honest I thought it had a couple more years in it.
“I mean, how do you top getting behind the wheel with your wife and child when you’re not sure you can see? Somehow though Neil Parish has pulled it off, and to him I say bravo.”
Mary Fisher from Kendal said: “He must have been up all night honing the ridiculousness of that excuse. I just hope he took a moment to congratulate himself when he struck upon the idea of combining porn and agricultural vehicles. It’s genius.
“An infinite number of monkeys hammering away at an infinite number of typewriters could never come up with an idea so hilariously bad, yet he made it look effortless.
“He should be given a knighthood. Or sacked for being a pervert. Could go either way, given the current state of the Tories.”
The sainted Natalie, of course, gave her full support to Cummings when it suited her political aspirations. Somehow I doubt that even she will be running to Neil Parish's defence. You get what you vote for.

Easy mistake by Neil Parish.
I did much the same when I was trying to find out about P&O owners and googled DP World .............

Your browser history must be interesting then.
Copied but still a good bit of relevant satire.
I see you, Neil Parish.
Oh, pal... It happens to the best of us, doesn’t it? One minute you’re harmlessly flicking through AgriculturalTrader, admiring the sleek curves of a racing-green 2016 John Deere 6130R with turnable front fenders, just wondering if you can get the seller to throw in that telehandler bucket he’s also got listed as an extra if you make him a cash offer. Then before you know it, through absolutely no fault of your own, your thumb slips and you’re suddenly watching something else entirely get ploughed into oblivion. It’s a very different sort of muck-spraying action, isn’t it? You’ll never get that crap out of the corduroy panels of your gilet. They’re so stiff you could build an Anderson shelter out of them now.
Christ, what an embarrassment. My toes are curling so far backwards on your behalf that I need a farrier. And you’re not even the idiot who started all this! Whoever the chortling moron was who sat down with the Mail on Sunday last week must be lathering his arse with WD40 right now, for he surely has the squeakiest bum in Westminster. Imagine thinking that your perverse public schoolboy fantasies are just the hot scoop needed to humiliate Angela Rayner, and instead you end up triggering yet another by-election. All because your own side apparently can’t keep their eyes off OnlyFarms at work.
His colleagues must be furious, having their own behaviour dragged out into the light by the backlash to that ridiculous article. The only comfort our mystery man must be feeling right now is the thought that Boris Johnson’s government has always been leakier than some of those specialised ‘combine harvesters’ on CornHub. They’ve never been able to find the gossips before, and it looks like they’ll now be too busy dealing with a hundred sexual misconduct scandals to look for this one properly either. I’d say it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack, Neil Parish, but I know you get far too excited by that sort of farmyard imagery. I wouldn’t want to give you another one of your recurring ‘moments of madness.’
I’m just surprised you even resigned, what with there being a war on and everything. I was half expecting you to claim that the interracial gangbang you were watching was a work event and that you were, in effect, ambushed with a cock. What the tractor have we come to, when the bloke resigning for watching porn in the Commons is the one acting with more integrity than the Prime Minister? Not by much, admittedly, seeing as at first you genuinely thought it was worth clinging on to see if you could wait out an investigation. Then there’s the fact that the excuses are such pure Partridge that half the Tory benches must be tempted to blast them out of the sky with a hunting shotgun, but still… you have actually quit, and you did it quicker than Imran Ahmad Khan did. You’ve closed the tab on your own career faster than a teenage boy ogling a Massey Ferguson 7716 when his mum opens the bedroom door to offer him a cup of tea. Does that… does that almost deserve credit, now? Is that really how tractoring low the bar has fallen?
Nah. You’re a grotty little bugger, and the embarrassment is going to linger for you for the rest of your life, but the last thing you are here is the victim. Clearly there are plenty of genuine ones in Westminster, though. The floodgates have once again been forced wide open, just as they always are when sexual misconduct rears its ugly head in the public sphere. The conversation shifts, uncomfortable conversations suddenly feel permissible, and the sense of solidarity emboldens those who have felt powerless in the past to speak and come forward.
And that’s the real scandal here, isn’t it? It’s no surprise to the women, men and children who have suffered their grotesque advances that those who consider themselves kings of their tawdry little empires behave like animals when they think they can get away with it. What desperately needs to change isn’t just the behaviour itself, but the fact that this shit doesn’t get aired or dealt with until the pressure builds enough to blow the lid off the whole sordid mess.
That there are 56 MPs - almost nine per cent of all of them - who have faced a sexual misconduct complaint over the last four years clearly isn’t just a few ‘bad apples’. Given that the vast majority of this shit is never even reported or complained about, it’s a blight that’s clearly set in to the whole rotten crop of them. The whole system now needs ripping out by the roots and burning, replaced with something far less prone to infestation by such predatory, infantile parasites.
There’s probably a machine for that but if it’s all the same to you, I’ll probably ask someone else to Google it.
I see you, Neil Parish. I tractoring see you.ray hutstone- Registered: 1 Apr 2018

Please someone tell me that this a fake. Otherwise we really do have no hope.

Yes, it's fake. And so is Dorries. And so is Starmer.
And so is your outrage, as you already knew it was fake.
Next question.

It transpires that it wasn't a fake. She actually tweeted that image lifted from the Daily Mail. So that justifies it to you, does it? Next question.

If she was only a coke free zone, then we might have to put up with less of this sort of hypocritical bullshit

Dorries linked to the DM article (I even included a screenshot for you). The DM piece uses a cropped pic of Starmer eating as a 'stock photo' (you've heard of those?). The Left sought out the original pic so it could outrage itself by faking a Dorries tweet.
Desperate.
Any other media talking points?

Indeed, however as she, the DM & you know the relevant local constabulary cleared Sir Keith & his colleagues as the meeting was pre lockdown.
The DM article is an awful attempt at a hatchet job, but has achieved its aim of making us talk about something other than the corruption at the heart of government and their slide towards totalitarianism.
This was clearly a political post during purdah and potentially breaches electoral rules, but the Tories are not one for following the rules are they
P.S. I think Labour are almost as bad for ignoring the rules they do not like etc.

If you're trying to make a political point about a groundless incident which, as Ross has already pointed out, had no basis for a police investigation, you don't retweet years old stock photos like the half wit Dorries did. And, yes, I have heard of them before you get even more patronising.
I beginning to undertsand why you seem to support her so vehemently now.
Oh, and by the way, you don't know me. Please don't cast aspersions on the sincerity of my posts, whether they display outrage or otherwise. True colours. Rather pathetic.

Anyone else realise this happens every election time when every party manages to find the fake as well as the true stories to discredit the other main contenders.
A bit pointless really when a true supporter or the more intelligent person ignores whatever appears and a non voter could not care less as they have no or little interest in any of it.
Anything via the DM is not worth reading or believing.

So we have moved from the fake pictures which is showing the desperation of the Tories at this time , together with attempts by the Tories and some national media to discredit
It's nothing new .

In taking this beyond the point of my intervention, RM, (exposing RH's faux outrage), you've (fortuitously?) raised the coffin lid to reveal the worm-ridden corpse: while media hatchet jobs and government corruption aren't new, the 'slide towards totalitarianism' is.
This is precisely why Labour and the rest of the Left are so keen to feed us candyfloss: it is fully onboard, supported the covid diktats, constantly screamed for tougher restrictions and penalties, and would have us masked, locked down and forcibly jabbed even now if it had half the chance. Labour's hypocrisy over the genuine suffering it inflicted on us is rank, and its tears for its victims are fake.
I must say, btw, that this thread's really not lived up to its billing so far.

Oh, RH, but you reveal more of yourself with every snide, sneering, smearing post you make.
Exhibit 'A': '

Still hung up on Covid. Never understood that, never addresses the facts on any subject. Really not interested in your childish waffle anymore. Go on laughing your arse off. I wouldn't expect anything more intelligent by way of response.

TBH both sides are as bad as each other and are both part of "the establishment"
Neither offers policies to address the issues faced by the majority or the underlying problems of neo-conservative capitalism.
