I thought UK public figures had learned better than to bring food racism into things since Big Brother started riots over Shilpa Poppadom. Smh she wouldn't dare say the same about curry eaters or kebab eaters so why fuck tofu eaters like that  >:(

Another one bites the dust. What horrorshow shall follow?

At this point I'm pretty sure we'd be better off chucking a net into a pub and making whoever gets caught a minister.

Well hopefully the sight of the Conservatives fiddling while the country burns will end them.

This could continue the world’s most destructive game of musical chairs.

Things going downhill quickly for Truss. Among 39 others, the Chief Whip (the person who is supposed to make sure party members toe the party line) abstained from an important vote:

Quote
Forty Tory MPs abstained in Labour's fracking motion earlier, meaning they did not vote yes or no on it.

Among the MPs who abstained are Chief Whip Wendy Morton. Tory MPs have told the BBC she is no longer in post - though her position is still unclear.

PM Liz Truss is also listed as having not voted. We don't know why she wasn't present.

Other notable MPs who didn't vote are former PM Theresa May, former Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng and former Home Secretary Priti Patel.

We don't know how many abstained on principle as Parliament doesn't record the reason for not voting - they may have been unable to be in Westminster.

But given that earlier in the day the vote was being described as a confidence motion, the fact that such senior MPs did not vote will raise eyebrows.

PPE: I just noticed the PM didn’t vote. What’s even the point anymore? Just resign. Throw your party under the bus and call a Christmas GE.

She's a detached idealogue, clinging to the vaguest notion that she was right and everyone else is wrong. Getting her to resign is going to be like pulling teeth.

Excellent timing for that one...

There is something to be said about, if the stakes are as high, maybe reconsider your certitudes. One has to be aggressively allistic to feel entitled to be able to trust. But it won't happen to me, my bit doesn't count etc etc... Just saying, after my recent experiences I couldn't trust the public if I wanted to. People got their risk assessment neurons rotten and replaced with game theory. Folks walk around like fat turkeys taunting the world to slaughter them.

I gotta say, Suella Braverman is such a great name. I actually read this first time around as Beaverman, which was even better.
I wonder if she's ever sued anybody.

For me, it was Ed Balls. Though I do appreciate that our foreign secretary's surname is Cleverly

I like Jeremy Hunt, because sometimes the BBC “accidentally” call him Cunt.
