The Conservative party continues itās change into the Fascist Party. The Higher Education minister used Nazi dogwhistles in her speech.
It didnāt end well for Ernst Rƶhm either.
I will stick to my lifelong policy of never writing uplifting bangers
I mean, Missing has been remixed into a dance hitā¦ but not a great topic for a campaign songā¦
I find almost all of their early stuff very uplifting indeed.
universities are feeding students "a diet of critical race theory, anti British history and Social Marxism.
What the fuck is she mainlining? Does she think this is the USA and armies of deplorable MAGA white supremacist are ready to rush to her support?
Itās beyond a dog whistle - itās blatantly fabricated falsehoods in prosecution of a culture war, via a battle that simply does not exist**. I mean, she could have gone on about (completely wrongly, of course) no platforming in universities or alleged āwokenessā and too much taking account of the sensitivities of LGBQT+ communities and so on - all the well-established culture battles her and her ilk have been trying to stir up for some time.
But this just tries to open a completely a battle that only exists in her head - ** well it does exist now sheās started it.
What an odious, offensive fuckwit she is.
They are desperate after fucking up so badly with the mini-budget and this and other similar Tory conference speeches are a predictable response. Iām expecting a bunch of transphobic shit to be pushed into parliament in the next few weeks as Truss and co. will see it as a way to gain a victory for her fascist base and delay the backbench revolt that is about to happen.
Also, it is what their masters at 55 Tufton Street want.
Why do I get the feeling that thereās a bank in a small mid-western American city thatās missing two of its deputy branch managers because Liz Truss and Kwasi Karteng missed their callings in life and are running the UK instead?
Sheās by far not the first one. Havenāt you seen the Toriesā desperate attempts to manufacture culture wars in the last few years?
I am very aware of the Toriesā manufactured culture wars. And I did refer - very directly - to the fact that I had indeed seen those attempts. With specific examples given in my comment.
But critical race theory etc, is a new one to be thrown at UK universities and is previously thrown around as an obsession of the US right-wing fuckwits about what is allegedly going on in their schools.
Same old Tories
Heās a repeat offender too.
The country I am in is not supported. Figures. We are nearly a basket case, after all.
Try a podcatcher. It Could Happen Here seems to be on all of them.
Oh, I do have a VPN. I just thought it funny that instead of saying it was ānot availableā, it rather plaintively told me my country āwas not supportedā. No doubt our mental health will decline as a result of this lack of support. As if it could get worse given what itās like now, living in Trussia.
Some wag dubbed her āThick Lizzyā the other day. Worst tribute act ever.
Thick Lizzy? Tribute Band?
Well, Donāt Believe a Word she says - sheās got a Bad Reputation already and sheās just told her chancellor: āDo Anything You Want Toā.
Oof
āI was approached and I didnāt know who they were ā¦ And then I met one or two of the [GB News] people concerned and had dinner with them, and I liked them very much. And what they said was: āPeople say itās the rightwing channel ā itās a free speech channel.āā
Donāt they teach critical thinking in Cambridge?
