They are now threatening each other

I have gone against against Government on quite a lot of matters.

I have NEVER been threatened or blackmailed by a Minister, Whip or SPAD.

It wouldn't work woth me and not sure it would with any other colleague.

That's the same Anthony Mangnal who campaigned for a change in the law to make it more difficult for MPs to change parties (such as Christian Wakeford did).

Do we think that makes him an unbiased source?

The twatter comments under his tweet are amusing. If he defects he will just be replaced by a donkey with a blue rosette as his seat is safe.

(Just noticed more spelling mistakes.)

It is apparently Romy, Bojo's baby daughter who had Covid last week.

According to the Boris Broadcasting Corporation, Boris has seen no evidence of blackmailing:

Which means it's definitely been happening, but what he has seen, nobody has told him it is evidence or blackmailing.

Tory MPs are now being threatened and blackmailed by the whips.

And did these very nice people with the "Whip" as their job title did before?

Correctly applied blackmail should result in evidence of previous black being produced

Explains why he needed the protection of the other lot.

The former Conservative MP Christian Wakeford has alleged that party whips told him he would lose funding for a new high school in his constituency if he did not vote with the government.

The claim came as the senior Conservative William Wragg urged MPs to report government ministers, whips and advisers to the Speaker – and even the police – for what he claimed was attempted blackmail of some colleagues suspected of possibly opposing Boris Johnson.

The Whips don't have that kind of power, but that aside, Labour don't have any power at all. Do you think he will still get that funding now - 'cos I don't.

Plus more than one routinely against-voting Tory MP has said they've never been blackmailed by the whips or anyone else in government.

Who to believe....

Who to believe, someone who claims he routinely votes against Tory policies, or his actual voting record?

6/379 is not routinely.

It's not how many, it's how many times he goes against the party's majority vote on a given subject. And he is allowed to agree with stuff.
