Breaking - Bllackmail

[Foxgolfer]

Appparently a back bencher has told a Commons committee that Tory Whips have been threatening to wiithdraw funding to the constituents of any MP who opposes Johnson .
He refers to it as blackmail and intimidation of Elected MPs and suggests the MeT Police should investigate.

So that’s lying , blackmail , extortion and law breaking .
Likening this government to The Mafia is not wrong .

How much more damage to our country and it’s reputation can people stand ?

So. The Conservative Chair of a Parliamentary Committee has accused a Conservative Government of blackmailing Conservative Mps.
Hilarious if not so deeply damaging to our democracy

Johnson and his band of crooks should be in prison .

In the end nobody will care. He got Brexit done (didn't) and jabbed millions (like every other country).

 

[Foxgolfer]

Also threatening to do some of them “reputational damage “ ,

The Daily Mail no doubt primed to dish the dirt on any who break ranks .

British democracy in 2021

Pure corruption

I guess he means the narrative coming from some current Tory loons seems to b, if you don’t support this government you are somehow unpatriotic .
The opposite is more the case I suggest .
