I see that our awful, bag of sh1t, local MP has caught the attention of the Secret Barrister with his continued, ill informed, populist bullsh1t.

The 2019 intake of Tory MPs is an incredibly dim, obnoxious cohort. I'm sure some will turn out to be worthwhile Members of Parliament in time but I doubt it will be many of them. See also some of the Corbynite ones too.

It's not about agreeing with an individual politically or even liking them that much but contrast with Michael Howard's approach to the Internal Markets Bill.

"He said: "I have knocked on tens of thousands of doors in Ipswich and spoken to thousands of people"

He's basically claiming to have knocked on every door in the town here - the last census had us at 133k, and that will include places like Castle Hill, Whitton, etc that aren't in his constituency so he'll have no interest in

Even if averaging 2 people per household there are probably only about 50k doors to knock on and he has done 'tens of thousands'

He's a year younger than me, an MP and had his first break as an elected councillor in 2011.

He graduated Oxford with a masters in 2011 and went straight into politics. Never really had a proper job or functioned in normal society.

How these people keep convincing us they represent us shows the level of stupidity Britain suffers from and/or how deep the political client journalism runs.

Yep and an ex Cambridgeshire Councillor.

When Tom became an elected councillor in 2011 I was still working in a chain pizza shop with 3 year old BA Hons degree after graduating straight into the 2008 recession kicked my arse. And honestly I was grateful for the fact I had a job that paid my bills at that point, I'd done everything from being on JSA to temping in multiple factories and kitchens. It was degrading and I never felt less valued as a human being in my life. Towards the end of that year I took a pay cut from said pizza place to work 9-5 in the digital industry as a trainee. I had to get my then-partner to pay for the petrol in my car to get to work and lived in a box room at my mate's house for £250 a month.

I'm sure he got where he was with nothing but hard work, grit and pulling himself up by his bootstraps though, therefore he could TOTALLY relate to my experiences*.

*Of course he couldn't, he's a far right little piece of sh1t privileged career politician.

This current lot make the lot we so gleefully voted out in 1997 look like proper statesmen. They've had 10 years in power if you include the coalition but there's nothing there in terms of substance now. Nobody like a Ken Clark, Major, Rifkind, Portillo, Howard, even Widdecombe. Even if you hated some of their politics vehemently you could respect them as MPs who stood up for what they believed in and they were allowed be to a broad church, from being pro-Europe like Ken Clark and the ERG on the other end of the spectrum could co-exist. Now it's real-life Thick Of It, replace Malcolm Tucker with Classic Dom.

Dreadful individual.

Older posters will remember names like Ken Weetch, Ernle Money and even Dingle Foot (Michael's brother) - all of whom seemed to the interests of Ipswich first and foremost when they were representing us. Ye Gods, even Gummer the Younger got involved with local issues.

This cretin is not fit to follow them.

Never mind the 1997 Tories, I'd vote for the 1987 bunch now if I could, and I loathed Thatcher with a passion.

That's the truth of today's Tories, they hold the Blessed Margaret up as some sort of deity, but then do things that she wouldn't have done in a billion years. We may have still had some sort of referendum on the EU, but there's no way she'd be in favour of leaving the single market, considering she was one of the driving forces behind it.

Similarly, hopefully she'd have made a better fist of Covid as well, what with having a scientific background. One things for sure, Cummings would have been booted out the door by the time he'd got to South Mimms...

There seems to be a decline. Look at the USA and how people laughed when ex-movie star Reagan got voted in, then you thought it couldn't any worse with George Dubya Bush. Then you get Trump and the two I mentioned look like the 4 on Mount Rushmore compared to that moron.
