How would you fix the Tory party? Is it even fixable?

I am hoping for serious answers. (It's a genuine question.) But I'm not optimistic I'll get any...

Please surprise me by proving me wrong. Thank you.
A few suggestions...
- Fire Cummings
- Fire the Attorney General (Yes, 51 MPs cheerled for Cummings. But only one is UK's supreme legal authority)
- Publish ALL SAGE documents & other science advice
- Publish Russia Report
- Allow Parliament to keep working remotely indefinitely
- Extend Brexit transition period 2 years, then postpone negotiations until January 2021 to concentrate on the coronavirus.
- Fix the many many gaps in the various bailout packages.
- Forbid firms taking bailouts from paying dividends for an extended period of time.

Time for a second round of "which Tory MPs came to bat for Dominic Cummings on social media", this time off the back of his press conference. Tonnes of them! Buckle in.

Here's something... odd.

Two Tory MPs, tweeting such similar things, it's uncanny. "Constituents who have contacted me regarding Dominic Cummings can rest assured"etc.

Are they working off a script they've been given? Sure looks like it!

Keep your eyes peeled for more.
Here are 3 more slight variations. Can't be coincidence any more, surely?
It's not just on Twitter. Now, Tory MPs are copying each other's messages about Dominic Cummings on Facebook too...

Notice how each of them passes them off as their own views?

If you're wondering how 53 Tory MPs managed to pile on in defence of Dominic Cummings in a short space of time over the weekend, it turns out there was a (too) vigorous whipping operation stirring them to act.

Of course that doesn't absolve them in full.

After all, MPs must at all times be responsible for what they decide to say. But at least we now know why all the tweets mushroomed around the same time.

Here's the original list of offenders, including Cabinet Ministers and the Attorney General...
The other point to bear in mind is that many of those 53 Tory MPs complained about the politicisation of the Cummings situation. But by acting at the behest of their whips, they engaged in a 100% political act of their own!
