Reply to: Boris proclaims himself King

Anyone* is perfectly entitled to stand for election.

The problem is that if the government is making a rule that only MPs who agree with it 100% are allowed to stay in the party, then it’s not really a democratic party any more, nor is it a democratic parliament. “You must agree with us, no dissenting, no debate, no discussion, or you will be sacked”

A Tory MP who wants to do what is best for his constituents will be sacked if what they want differs one jot or tittle from the diktat of Cummings.

Finally the UK is exposed as the dictatorship it really is.

Power to the people.

[WTFH]

De-selected mps are perfectly entitled to stand for election, just not as Tory party reps. Along with the latter, constituencies then get the choice of two right-of-centre candidates, not one.

I don't think they should be de-selected though.

Maggie used to love dissenters.....

Any Tory MP who disagrees with Cummings is going to be deselected.

That's the UK's democracy under the far right, and it's just going to get furher reicht until the hardliners are appeased.

Ha ha ha .... someone got triggered

At the moment leavers seem quite happy. It is the remoaners who have gone whining for mod protection. Poor little snowflakes.

Johnson is only the public face, the real king is the unelected Cummings..

And Cummings is playing a blinder! He's backing the remainers into a corner; if they stop Boris before 31st Oct, a GE can be called and the angry leavers may back Boris (over the Brexit Party) and give him a chance of winning with a working Tory majority. It's the only way Boris/Tories have a chance of winning a GE any time soon.

If he isn't stopped before 31st Oct, then Cummings gets the hard Brexit his paymasters want. Cummings can't lose.

Blimey you are worth £150 million and or have an annual income of about £500k like these gentlemen? I'm impressed! I hope NLyUK lets you expense those knee pads that is a lot of servicing sailors you had to do to get there.

I'm doing fine thanks but I'm happy in the top 10% of earners, not telling you where but more than enough to enjoy life I'm not the top 0.05% of earners and I doubt you are either.

I said I was a millionaire, I didn't specify how many millions And, unlike those 2 guys, mine is 100% self made, having grown up in a council estate in the 70's

Wow, you're a top 10% earner .... you earn £53k a year ..... you must be a very successful contractor

No, i'm not 0.05% earner, but since contracting my rates have put me in top 1.5% . Most contractors I know doing similar roles earn the same rates. I'm not a code monkey, and no threats from offshoring. so my rats have held strong. I'm semi retired now, even though not 50 year old yet, but life is for living

yep warty scum of the earth!

I take it from this comment that your contracting career has not been as successful as some of us

Oh well, keep at it fella - you never know, after 31st October, your new British uplands might start to see you doing better with your life
