[thread] on a very very special focus group
Two quotes though before we start
Two quotes though before we start
"My Britain is one where the rule of law is upheld, impartially even against the most powerful bodies in our community and where those entrusted with upholding the law, whether policemen or judges, are given respect, support and encouragement. "
“We are still waiting for an explanation...public have made extraordinary sacrifices during this pandemic and the lockdown. It cannot be one rule for those who set them and another for the British people....the country deserves answers.”
The first: Margaret Thatcher
The second: UK Labour Party 23/5/2020

I suppose it's apt to a man who fucks so many things - that it should be reflected back at him
Oh just as an aside here's some "guidance"
So out of MPs list of 320 Conservative MP social media accounts

Just to see how well they followed the "instruction" or was it "guidance" to circle the wagons
on the topic of breaking the law:
260 these did not have a view
1 said its ok lots of people break the law
2 said the law wasn't broken
1 said it was fake news
2 said it was politicising a topic
41 said breaking the law was justified by a parent caring for a child

A further breakdown
Now to those who did not respond
They are a fascinating audience
Because many of them were active on social media on 23/5/2020 either
attacking Keir Starmer's brexit policy
quoting the daily briefing press releases
or tweeting about ramadan
