It must be difficult for them, bad as the Tories have been, to see the party die before their eyes and become just another UKIP especially with Cummings yielding so much control at the moment. It was amazing yesterday to find out that Cummings isn't even a member of the Tory party.

Originally posted by Asura View PostI read Rees-Mogg's replies to that guy on the radio. Honestly, his phrasing reads like a teacher scolding a student. It's a totally unacceptable way to speak to someone, but something that the Tory party base probably just eat right up.
"Rees-Mogg said there were “reserve plans to fly drugs in if necessary”.
He told Nicholl: “This is a major focus of government policy. I think it’s deeply irresponsible, Dr Nicholl, of you to call in and try to spread fear across the country. I think it’s typical of remainer campaigners and you should be quite ashamed, I’m afraid.”
In March, Nicholl raised concerns with the House of Commons health select committee about NHS England’s no-deal Brexit policy, which he believed was “exposing patients with long-term conditions such as epilepsy to an increased level of risk due to limitations in supply of drugs”.
Nicholl asked Rees-Mogg: “Having been involved in writing the plans for mitigation and having whistleblown because I felt they were unsafe, what level of mortality rate are you willing to accept in the light of a no-deal Brexit?”
Rees-Mogg told Nicholl: “I don’t think there’s any reason to suppose that a no-deal Brexit should lead to a mortality rate.
“I think this is the worst excess of ‘project fear’ and I’m surprised that a doctor in your position would be fearmongering in this way on public radio.”
Nicholl told the prominent Brexiter: “Can I remind you I wrote the plans of mitigation?”
Rees-Mogg replied: “Well, you didn’t write very good plans if you hadn’t worked out how to mitigate, had you? It’s fortunate they are being written by other people now who are serious about mitigating, rather than remoaners.”
In March Nicholl told the health select committee there were widespread concerns among his colleagues about the supply of anti-epileptic drugs and other medicines for neuropathic pain despite the very “large number of excellent civil servants … working on no-deal contingency plans”."

Originally posted by Superman Falls View PostUS Vice President Mike Pence has apparently urged Ireland the EU to negotiate in good faith with the UK which to me is insanely unprofessional and clearly exposes just how tied to the hip Trump and Johnson are - something that can only cost Johnson votes the more that link is exposed.

"Sadly, the Brexit process has helped transform this once great Party in to something more akin to a narrow faction, where an individual's 'conservatism' i smeasured by how recklessly one wishes to leave the European Union. Perhaps most disappointingly, it has increasingly become infected with the twin diseases of populism and English nationalism."
