Obligatory ‘Little Britain’:

Kind’a refreshing that he resigned, instead of spouting nonsense about this being a liberal plot or an attack on his rights or whatever.

My dear ol’ dad (80’s) has been a staunch tory all his life.

When this news broke on the radio, his words were “absolute w**ker”.

Curmudgeonly, apposite and succinct, that’s my dad.

Everything I aspire to be.

The hunting vest with a dress shirt and tie is a pretty perfect conservative Poe. It’s like the Tucker Carlson’s Workshop of outfits. So obviously performative yet no doubt the target audience likes it.

Depressingly, the Tories are sitting on a 24,000 majority in the Tiverton constituency. Barring a miracle, another guaranteed lobby fodder loyalist will be returned to bray and grunt on the backbenches (with or without pornography being involved).

Given that parliament recently outlawed protest, made free and fair elections impossible (in the conservatives’ favor), passed draconian anti-immigration laws, and made it possible to revoke the citizenship of even native-born UKers, this was really the least obscene thing that happened in parliament lately.

Now waiting for a GOP congressperson to be forced to resign by his party after being caught watching a factual Black History documentary on their phone.

Outward appearance is everything to that ilk. Not that much going on inside.

( to be fair, he was distracted by porn on his phone then too )

Once you’ve gone Tractor, you can only go Backhoe. From there, it is all down hill.

I may be wrong, but I don’t think he has actually resigned. He just said he would resign. Let’s see whether he actually does. The last tory MP who said that, after being convicted of child abuse, still hasn’t resigned yet as far as I know.

Oh, well done! :clap:t2::tophat::heart_eyes:

The best/worst part is that he went on TV before anyone knew it was him and discussed the issue.
