Welsh Tory David T.C.* Davies is 100% convinced the Nastiz can win the next General Election. I can sleep with Brigitte Bardot; the probability I will is vanishingly low.
Typical Tory, he rants against the Welsh Labour government for building no new roads in Wales and for trying to enforce a 20mph speed limit replacing the urban default of 30mph.
This BBC graph of average sea surface temperatures since 1979 should have (but hasn't) spurred our politicians into action to actually do something. Clearly there was a tipping point in May 2023, which has certainly been evident in the UK due to the last 12 months of even more unusual weather.
Where are our leaders when we actually need them? We need a general election, a hung parliament, and some #Green representation in government.
#RishiSunak apparently unfamiliar with the saying "To get out of a hole, first, stop digging"
After 15 years in power and another round of local section losses, more "work to do" is the LAST thing needed. #Tories should stop and call a #GeneralElectionNow
“Lib Dems ‘on course to topple leading Tories’ in general election
(…) the results put them on course to challenge the chancellor Jeremy Hunt and the housing and communities secretary Michael Gove in Surrey, and the justice secretary Alex Chalk in Cheltenham”
…Don’t stop there
There’s much good work to be done removing rees-mogg, braverman & sunak.
The Fixed Term Parliament Act of 2011 was of course, like much else exported from the Westminster Village, a misnomer.
The problem outlined below (the Tories ruling on stolen time) would disappear if we made a simple reform along US electoral (Presidential & Congressional) lines rather than bleating about 'a Parliamentary System is different.'
Simply fix all dates for future General Elections and stick to them +
Why is Reform UK, aka The Farage Fascist Party, getting so much air time? The screenshot of the total number of councillors elected (from the BBC) shows them a distant last. #UKPolitics#GeneralElectionNow#GTTO
“A Tory MP has begged local members in his constituency for help after he was caught short without voter ID ahead of local elections
Tom Hunt, MP for Ipswich asked local members to act as his “emergency proxy” after he found that he had no appropriate ID to vote in the local council elections”
It's been almost two years since Rishi Sunak became our Second-Past-The-Post Prime Minister and he's still too frit to secure his own mandate for things like his Rwanda Transportation policy by calling a #GeneralElectionNow but don't worry, be happy - today most of us get to vote in local, mayoral and/or PCC elections.
Perhaps public health officials should issue a new triple-3-word slogan to Conservative voters:
“Tory council splashed £54,000 on Mayoral chauffeur in same month it declared bankruptcy
Thurrock Council, which has hiked bills for local taxpayers after running into financial trouble, faces questions about its use of money over the lucrative chauffeur contract”
…I guess they think if rich! sunak & cameron can private jet around then a chauffeur is quite in order
Nick Ferrari cites the European People's Party as his authority for justifying his right-wing views on the Rwanda Transportation policy of the Nastiz.
The EPP is "the largest group in the European Parliament," claims Nick, "and they're not right wing" Ferrari tells a caller.
'Fatso' as one chap calls him, is so ignorant. The EPP is the group the Tories belonged to before they became the Nastiz and joined the far-righters in the EP.

As Fishi Rishi said, it's an historic day. It'll be the subject of essays by future schoolchildren where the Conservative Party removed any doubt that they were xenophobic hate-mongers, trying to appeal for votes to the most bigoted, intolerant and ill-informed members of society. #GTTO#GeneralElectionNow
I am ashamed of my country & government!
This gov't has no compassion, & is willing to break international law in order to deprive desperate people of their right to asylum. What an absolute disgrace.
I hope (but have no confidence) that Labour will repeal this when we finally get rid of these inhumane Tories later this year.
Over-promoted prefect Prime Minister #Sunak decrees to the legislators of Great Britain that they can't go home today, until they pass his fash deportation bill.
He has no electoral mandate for the Tory #Rwanda bill. So, MPs & Lords together, tell him to go and seek one.
Theresa May tried going into the House of Lords to glower at them from the shadows. Sunak goes for a schoolmaster's detention. Tories think democracy an impediment to their personal authority. Kick em out
JFC, the #UK is so desperate for a #GeneralElection which must be called in the next 6 months ... But not before the #Tories make one more attack to damage the #NHS
