Demonized and insulted their core support how exactly? By asking, now they've seen what it means, if they really wanted to go ahead with the clusterfuck that is Brexit? I think the reality is people were just sick of hearing about Brexit and voted for someone, anyone, to try to make it go away so they didn't have to hear about it any more. Never mind the fact that doing so voted in a govt which has now proved itself to be the most incompetent one in Europe in terms of dealing with Covid! And just like Brexit, pollsters are finding that Tory supporters are so dug into their position of support, that all the evidence which points to that Tory govt incompetence is easily overlooked if to do otherwise might be to admit an error of judgement! lol, utter drivel.

More Tory dirty tricks down here
Well cut congestion charge to 12 that's from the 15 the Tory government forced on tfl
Well fully fund covid relief again the same funding the Tory government cut
Well reopen more front desks the ones boris cut and sold off as mayor
Tory mayoral candidate I'll get more money from the Tory government if you vote for me
The Tories really are corrupt and economical with the truth

Also, by way of comparison I did the same for Labour Results were... Corruption in Tory party uk... 5,280,000 results Corruption in Labour party uk... 16,300,000 results. Make of that what you will. (The Lib Dems, btw, scored 10,200,000 - appropriate for a party that looks to claim the middle ground!).

So you’re over three times more likely to find a link for Labour Party corruption Then for the conservatives

That doesn’t necessarily mean anything - but seeing as the Essex boy was promoting Google as a tool to assess party political corruption it seemed a reasonable thing to look at to give some perspective.

All that's easily manipulated and could relate to just about anything, including random posts on social media by nobodies. People need to employ some common sense. It's not so difficult to judge what's dodgy and what isn't, and what's relevant and what isn't.

3rd highest levels of homelessness in Europe behind Germany and Ukraine. It's a national disgrace how such a rich country could allow this - in fact, not only do we allow it, we enable it.
Thanks god for the likes of Lou Macari.

Is it 2021 or 1821?
At least he's got a lovely, not strange at all, flag in his study, I suppose. He must be a good man.

Interesting that everybody’s been lauding New Zealand and how great there leader is yet they have double the homeless we do. I don’t know much about Arden. Politically isn’t she Labour? On the subject of Lou Macari what an amazing man the guy needs a knighthood for all his brilliant work.

Is it 2021 or 1821? At least he's got a lovely, not strange at all, flag in his study, I suppose. He must be a good man. The stories of the children involved in this are heartbreaking, like this... The troubling case of Girl G reveals a lot about how we treat vulnerable children in the UK today. But, when you read that article, you realise just what a complicated system we have ended up with. Fixing these problems are challenging. What worries me is the desire to install quick fixes in response to media criticism. (No doubt Piers Morgan will jump on this if he thinks it is a big enough bandwagon). This announcement this morning, Unregulated accommodation banned for vulnerable children under 16, is surely not a coincidence. On the face of it, it looks like a good thing. It certainly fixes something, and, as a consequence of consultations and reviews, should be reassuring in that it demonstrates this problem is something that is known and has been worked on. But I’m not particularly reassured. Has this announcement been rushed in response. Does it mean that a proper solution will be implemented, because this looks like a can being kicked down the road to me.

I tried to keep it fair and equitable: Corruption in the UK Conservative Party - 21.1m hits Corruption in the UK Labour Party - 15.7m hits Not that it means anything, given they could relate to any old guff, but it does matter how you search!

I do hope that the police investigate this abuse of power and the people making money out of this at the expense of the taxpayer

Makes me (at least) wonder what these people do to earn get such ridiculous sums of money. Always since the invention of law the main priority of lawyers is to make money actually upholding the law is of secondary importance In this day and age and technology that is available why does it take months to exchange contracts on houses Could it be no bugger would pay there fees if they tried to charge it for half a days work And as for divorce they create problems to extend the hours they can charge
