More UCP MLAs speak out against Kenney every day. They don’t like how they have been treated in caucus meetings. Fair enough. They are worried they won’t be re-elected. OK. It bothers them to have Albertans questioning their integrity. Just now? ‘Cause it’s been 3 years. 1/7
When they were elected in 2019, they thought they were back to the conservative glory days where all you had to do was win the nomination in your riding, and your career was set for as long as you wanted. 2/7
The main thing all of them are complaining about now is how *they* have been treated and how *they* might not get re-elected. What about what their party has done to politics and political discourse in Alberta since 2019? 3/7
They don’t like Kenney and his henchmen talking down to them, but have any of them *ever* spoken out against things like handing out earplugs in the #ableg, or MLAs making faces at NDP MLAs, or calling out ‘Settle down, kitty cat.’? Because it’s the same people doing this. 4/7
Haven’t some of these MLAs who are complaining spoken condescendingly towards opposition MLAs who were trying to clarify or amend something on behalf of their constituents (who are ALSO Albertans)? 5/7
Haven’t they stayed silent when Albertans wanted answers about election cheating, or what Dr. Hinshaw was *really* advising, or what was *really* going on with the new curriculum, or how healthcare workers were being treated by the government? 6/7
Because I have to say, that while I don’t disagree with the things they are saying about Kenney and his inner circle, I also can’t help but see it as very self-serving, considering all the things they DIDN’T say about everything else. 7/7
