Former deputy prime minister warns election campaign will be ‘dishonest’

Tory grandee Michael Heseltine has warned that the General Election campaign will be the “most dishonest in modern time” because both parties refuse to debate the consequences of Brexit.

I can't help thinking the bigger story here is that a so-called anti-establishment anti-elite guy had been privileged enough to have an account with Coutts. Just ask any "real people" leave voters, how many of them actually know someone who got a Coutts account, let alone they have one themselves.

So we've had an entire news cycle based on this non-story, including ministers speaking out about it in Parliament and major newspapers splashing it on their front page and it was all based on Farage having a strop about not being rich enough to keep his elite bank account.

Just absurd.

I read a good line in a story that's helped me with imposter syndrome.

It said, remember that people are as a species used to living in groups of about 200, grouped around several campfires.

🔥Every
🔥Single
🔥Campfire

needs its own storyteller, its own dancer, its own musician. More than one, really.

So don't compare yourself to those who perform for millions.

Are you the person who can make people happy around your closest campfire? That's what's needed.

Tory MPs, lords and even Downing Street advisers have been shamelessly accepting money from private healthcare firms as the NHS is on its knees.

Tories raking in money from private health firms as NHS is on its knees

A number of high ranking and wealthy Conservative party members have links to private health care companies which, in turn, are profiting from the current NHS crisis

Nadhim Zahawi was blocked from a knighthood in the New Year's Honours list due to his tax affairs.

But Tory Govt still made him a Minister and party chairman.

Then Tories do have a history of handing honours to donors/cronies and apparatchiks.

I never set out to investigate Nadhim Zahawi. I’d retired as the lucratively paid head of tax at a City law firm and founded a think tank, Tax Policy Associat

Sunak shamed for breaking the law (again) over his seat belt embarrassment. Zahawi condemned for his “error” over millions in unpaid tax. Johnson exposed over his jobs-for-loans quid pro quo. There’s not an ounce of “integrity, professionalism & accountability” in this Tory Govt
