[Politics] Rory Stewart

Apologies if this is fixtures; it may be on the Brexit thread. Rory Stewart has resigned from the Conservative Party (I know he was one of the 21 rebels, but he was still a party member), and will run to be Mayor of London:

I don't wanna talk about it.

Surely there is some political forum somewhere on the net where you can discuss to your hearts content

I found one, but people occasionally posted football threads on there.

I opened each and everyone and posted my displeasure at them posting football on a politics board, but they just seemed to keep coming back to the top of the board

Outrageous

Good luck to him. He has really good ideas about devolution including reducing the number of MPs to 100 people and increasing the powers of local authorities with Mayors.

The People’s Republic Of Brighton and Hove can only get closer with him in charge.

He could devolve the U.K. whilst he is at it by disbanding the House of Lords, creating a new U.K. Parliament in Manchester or Liverpool and changing the HoC into an English assembly.

Will it be a bit like the new 100 cricket competition

Sore LOSER.

Heard him being interviewed over the PM race and thought he was a bit of a ponce with little substance. Actions post the appointment of Boris confirms it for me.

I do hope so. . . .

Err, I wonder why he is running for Mayor, could it be that he is a staunch REMOANER and looking to get some power because London is a remain city?

While Bailey is a tory and a Brexit man, and obviously a racist because all Brexit voters have to be.

Rory really does want revenge on Boris, he is a sad man. :nono:

He needs a paperweight stuck on his head, that should feck him up.

A tory I could vote for.

Sadly the shower in charge of that party are setting us on the road to ruin and division.

Another decent one nation Tory gone.

They really are being taken over by the right wing swivel eyed extremists, just the same as Labour have lost the battle against the left wing swivel eyed extremists.

May the Lord have mercy on us.

Can't argue with that really, this country isn't crying out for a decent liberal democratic party. If only there were one.

This.

Should make for an interesting GE when it comes. FPTP will keep Parliament looking not too dissimilar to how it currently does though, imo, unless the LDs really up their share of the vote (very unlikely, but not totally impossible). Another hung parliament is my prediction - which should mean that they still won't vote "For" anything Brexit-related, only "Against". Oh joy.

I'll educate you regarding how Londoners vote for a Mayor.

It's usually a two fingers up to the present Government, or their party and we like someone who will stand up for London.

Bailey will never get in, he is is far too "on message" with the current Tory party.

We like a bit of independent thinking.

Lesson over, you can return to the cave.

What do you mean, independent thinking, like Comrade anti-semitic Livingstone?

Well I am off hunting to put food on the table, I suppose you're off to spray paint over somewhere and feel hard done by.
