If mental gymnastics were an Olympic sport, #NadhimZahawi would surely be a hot favourite for the gold medal.
Watching him interviewed on Sky News this morning trying to argue in the very same interview that the #FrogFacedGrifter absolutely needed £5 million to pay for his security because of this hostility that politicians face from the public, and that it's fine to offer to buy a pint for someone who swears aggressively at politicians, was really quite a show.
@Nicovel0 @johnelalamo I really have no plans to ever leave the UK, but if the #FrogFacedGrifter wins the next election and things start to seriously go south, then I might have to rethink that.
Spain is definitely a country I would consider. Also France or Ireland. Maybe one or two others. Not sure really, my thoughts on this subject have been a bit hypothetical so far.
If I were in charge, any politician who was elected after breaking election law would immediately lose their seat and be required to pay back any salary they were paid since the election.
And then barred from standing for election for another 10 years.
And have to do 400 hours community service.
Maybe in the #FrogFacedGrifter's case cleaning the loos in an asylum hotel would be appropriate?
Oh look who's been breaking election rules.
It's always the ones you least suspect, isn't it?
Only allegations at this stage, nothing proven, but what really pisses me off is that even if proven you know that the only thing that's going to happen will be a token fine that will be pocket change for Reform's Russian backers.
There is no meaningful disincentive for any well-funded political party to break election law.
@ReggieHere @ColmDonoghue If the Greens get corrupted then for sure we would need another party on the left.
But what we really don't need is 2 parties on the left. That will just have the #FrogFacedGrifter laughing all the way to Downing Street.
The both-sidesism here is quite a thing to behold.
"Some people say Farage is a racist but Farage says he isn't".
Of course he's a racist. He's Nigel Fucking Farage. He has literally built his entire political career on racism.
Is it too much to ask that journalists just tell things like they are for once?
You have to wonder whether Reeves is planning to put a tax on milkshakes as a direct result of lobbying from the #FrogFacedGrifter
