They are providing air cover for each other while the UK is now begging for honesty from #CovidInquiry
I suspect they needed something juicy to deflect from the wholesale WTH over Sunak saying the quiet part out loud about them vandalising the country
A sacrificial lamb on the altar of Brexit?
Remembering that Oakeshott is married to Tice, Reform party. He has not had a very good day
They are like rats in a sack now. Blowing up the news cycle to distract from us being sold a lie
I apologise for the language here I am very tired now. As are all of you
I have worked very hard to be a source of balanced context
If you have the patience this is the long read version. Honesty still matters buymeacoffee.com/TrialByTruth/w…
This, also appended to my ECHR thread, is perhaps somewhat relevant /END
P.S. When I said honesty was vital for our survival it was said literally. Whether this, austerity deaths, the NHS, or the climate crisis

I really suggest people in the UK take a look at replies here. To the folk who think this isn't the ambition of Raab et al I suggest you haven't paid enough attention

Now it turns out rightly viewing the NI agreement pause as all the opposed groups, think tanks and media CXOs squirrelling the reactions data away and then furiously workshopping the best way to cover for Sunak tanking credibility of lines on hard Brexit

It is expedient for this man who has readily admitted promoting porn to young people historically Image
Might this serve the purpose to distract you from policies they do support, given the torpedo Sunak launched at hard Brexit?

The right wing attempt to cast all LGBTQ people as predators
The LGBTQ people as a threat to our children pitch partners the work to defund schools and also work to pass laws to reduce all our rights. This movement is not going to lead to a better country

Play hunt the point among the filler adverbs and adjectives here
I am a reasonably well read person who likes words, has a poshish accent and a decent acquaintance with some related law. I did what Raab did until I learnt the difference between risk to ego and ambition Vs risk to reputation and integrity
Actually, scrap that (and REUL). It's often necessary to tailor and time messages, but I couldn't do what Raab has done, hyping benefit, concealing impact. I don't want to 'do my own research' I want clarity and honesty

Just as we vote for parties and may well vote for a different one if the party turns out to be a disaster for the country, it is our democratic right to adjust our position based on evidence
It is the very fundament of our democratic system. Coercion and deceit to reinforce tribal loyalties is the opposite. How were we sold on the change and what has been done with control? 🧵

Which iteration of the hope for return to sanity are we on now? There is a survival instinct that makes attitudes a lag indicator. I for one have a slightly less terrified feeling now our sitting PM is not advocating ECHR withdrawal. But the hate promoted is still out there
So is a shredded standard of living, a crumbling NHS, ailing social care, utility bills that are set to increase 20%. People who have to run up expensive debt every month fuelling a retail debt bubble and prospect of careless deregulation and anti-union, anti-protest legislation
I am delighted Sunak pulled back from threatening to nix any chance of NI having their govt return to Stormont and had a grown up conversation with the EU, but that he sat in power while that was done to appease rebels is noted
