Nice bunch. This particular quote (near the end) gets some laughter from our Tory friends in the audience.

Is anyone really surprised by all this ?
Rightie conomic policies have been (as usual) a massive failure. They have no answer, as the only answer is to dump what they believe. Trickle down, economics, lower investment and spending cuts through de-regulation will always fck up the economy, it is just a case of when, not if.
All they have left is to conjure up some excuse for that failure, by coming up with vacuous words and expressions that somehow explain it all identify a scapegoat.
Words that avoid directly naming groups, but basically is anyone who is not you. It is deliberately left vague, so you can fill in the particular cause of your grievance.
They claim lack of investment can be blamed on paying for migrants and 'wokey cokey' policies. Though I doubt it is missed by normal folk that the supposed lack of having children might be connected to the Tory cut in
'child benefit'. It might be also be down to 13 years of failing to provide adequate housing to raise kids, unless a room in a bed and break fast is thought.
Personally I welcome such comment and statements, if only that it is a recognition that they have been beaten, but also the delight of watching bigots and racists tear lumps out of each other.
However I cannot add any schadenfreude seeing red wall thickos slowly grasping they were lied to, as so many in those areas are suffering badly under Tory rule, and were not so stupid as to fall for those lies. They will have to leave with the knowledge of having 'traitors' living among them. Rather like post war France and other European countries. |  | | |

Miriam Cates being an up and comer in the Tory party is a little frightening.
I've read other parts of her speech and you'd think it was something from the US.
The former biology teacher also used her speech to argue that falling birth rates were “the one overarching threat to British conservatism and indeed the whole of Western society”.
That rings alarm bells, it's verging on great replacement theory.
The other stuff about getting women out of work and back to being mothers is just typical evangelical nonsense. Perhaps no surprise either given the stated aims of the people running the conference.

Yep. The NAT-C conference, that for some reason is getting lots of press coverage, is as scary as feck. They’re directly importing the lunacy from the States. Hopefully our less religious population will make it harder for these ideas to take root, but it may not. It’s not new of course as we had the US links running through Brexit, but still a chilling direction of travel. |  |

We've got cabinet ministers attending a conference that 8 years ago Nigel Farage might have thought twice about attending given how terrible the optics are. And people are still reluctant to use the f word when discussing the direction of travel in the UK. |  |

I think maybe even some Tories are embarrassed by this conference. Can't see anything about it on the Telegraph home page and in the Express, just a story about how the two minsters should stop fannying about at a conference and get back to work. Can't check the mail as I wont turn my add blocker off for them |  |

Kevin Roberts, USA university professor and executive, with a reported net worth of at least $5million, during his attendance at a conference funded by an international lobbying organisation, lectures the attendees on the dangers of the global elite. I’m loving the projection and balls on it.
This would be hilarious if it wasn’t for us being able to see the damage this perverse ideology has caused in the US. | |

I mean it’s not like he’s earned money to appear on a channel that spouts holocaust denial and anti semitic propaganda.
If you’re good at something never do it for free! | | | |

Worse than people using 'anti semitic tropes?' Surely not!
I look forward to the post election hatchet job on Sue-Ellen. | |

This ‘cultural totalitarianism’ is batsh*t crazy too. It’s mostly projection and again seems to be rooted as viewing anything against traditional social conservative views as being founded in communism. They’re VERY paranoid and weird. Like that Douglas Murray chap - comes across so creepy.
Edit - oops, got the wrong guy. It was Douglas Murray I was referring to; the bloke in BL’s post above. One very creepy individual with seemingly racist views sharing a platform with Ministers. All very wrong. [Post edited 16 May 2023 20:57]

As I've just seen mentioned on twitter - aside from the crassness of that comment, the idea that Germany is the only example of nationalism causing war is just fooking stupid. |  |
