    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    It's one thing attracting remainers across the political spectrum, but what are they going to offer them after Brexit - whether they succeed or not? They have nothing to offer anyone other than more of the same.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    Especially with 2 potential leaders that voted with the Tory whip more times than either of the prospective Tory leaders did between 2010 and 2015.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    I think voting records are a good analysis of someone's attributes and belief systems. Have a look at them for each of the above and I challenge you to find a better 'leader' than Corbyn.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    We are in a state of paralysis right now. There is no way the Lib Dems or Brexit party will poll so highly when they have to produce a manifesto that will be scrutinised. They should enjoy their ‘theoretical’ moment in the sun.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    I disagree with your assertion of Corbyn. Although he will be viewed as toxic by some, he has established a clear difference between Labour and the Tories. They are now anti-austerity - if they stop being that they are finished.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    Not necessarily a large amount, but its where they are geographically. Most Labour leave voters are in the North of England - in crucial seats they would have to win to be the largest party.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    Not really no - but we are in the middle of a Tory party leadership battle with them getting exposure on 'their pledges' whilst we haven't actually moved anywhere with Brexit, and won't do until one of them (Boris) is in post. As they actually have some kind of plan of what to do with the...

    Johnson has already gone back on his pledge to have an inquiry.

    Both the Lib Dems and the Brexit party have made themselves look like the entrenched knobheads they are with their ‘stunts’

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The 2 parties in there today showed why we are where we are. 2 different positions so utterly entrenched that finding a middle ground is virtually impossible. And probably because they know if there was a deal made to leave that they would end up totally redundant.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The Lib Dems have been embarrassing themselves since 2010... today is no different. Also the Brexit party bunch... you’re not Man City fans so stop doing the Poznan you bellends.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    You can’t yet... 1000 odd pages on discussing Brexit and precisely fuck all has happened. Mart and ADM are only filling as we’re waiting for sunlit uplands/apocalypse.

    Film Thread 2019

    Watched it last night, excellent I thought. However for me the end of Toy Story 3 was better and more emotional.

    We had something similar when we were converted. Even now the school is run on a fairly skeletal staff, whilst the MAT has directors, advisers and consultants (all non-teaching) everywhere.

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    IMO (and I’m going to talk about Education as I know more) its pretty complex. Firstly, a lot of money is wasted due to constantly changing priorities, policy implementation and the latest ‘fads’. Every time there is a new education minister, they have their own ideas... and everything...

    What is going on with the Tory leadership contest?

    People think the NHS is sacred because of the fact that it should really be a basic human right in a modern and civilised country, but I think most understand that it needs to look at the processes involved in running it from their own experiences using it. I know its a very small example, but...

    Give a single reason with some actual evidence on why this statement isn't the bollocks that it is.
