I like the idea that anyone might consider the current Labour Party to be the 'radical left'.

Christ knows what she thought Corbyn was, if Starmer is the radical left.

To be fair, when you are as far right as Braverman, anyone remotely less right wing than Farage is going to be the "radical left".

It would seem she believes that the Tory Party members will elect any eejit as their leader as long as they espouse lunatic economic ideas and extreme bigoted views, as with Truss

The evidence suggests she is correct in that thought, but she is heading down a very narrow cul de sac.

Voters are wanting the mess made by her party addressed, not more of the same.

A bit like wanting the fire brigade to attend your house fire, not the arsonist with another can of petrol.

Still, it does provide a small crumb of comfort watching righties rip each other apart

She's an awful c***. If she was remotely competent she'd be highly dangerous, the fact she's also sh*t is something of a saving grace, albeit not a trait you'd usually look for in a home secretary.

You could take the basic gist of what she's said there and imagine it coming out of the mouth of Donald Trump.

Meanwhile in Suffolk on 21:57 - May 15 with 866 viewsfactual_blue

I was talking to a couple of former local journalist friends last week about West Suffolk Council's 'no overall control' position.

It's deeply depressing. Apparently sufficient of the 'independents' are tories who consider the tory party too left wing and soft to be members. They will nonetheless vote with the tories. The phrases 'Forest Heath backwoodsmen' and 'ex-ukip' were used.

So, just when you thought 'no overall control' in West Suffolk was a good thing, it's actually a bad thing.

I thought Tories who stood as independents in the local elections were generally embarrassed of the party title. That made me think they were generally less right but I suppose those more right could easily think the same way.

It's usually something about 'it's not the same party any more'. That of course may mean 'it's now too right wing', or 'it's not right wing enough'.

In this case, the latter.
