Tory MPs getting attacked for doing what they’re supposed to - disgraceful comments (according to the Mail anyway) by Alberto Costa MP, Andy Carter MP, Sir Patrick Jenkin MP and Laura Farris MP (who, in fact, stepped down from the Committee last month).

Re: Fascism?

they said the committee's remit had been 'rewritten in order to facilitate a guilty verdict' before it even began work.


I thought everyone knew he was guilty or are they hoping that the committee will rewrite history

The Daily Mail seems to be multi-tasking.

Not only selecting the next Prime Minister but at the same time acting as bodyguard and lie-washer for the last Prime Minister.

Power indeed!

Re: Fascism?

The comments make interesting, and surprising, reading.

I can't quite work out whether he was dethroned for implementing WEF policies, or not being committed enough to those policies.

Wales-Bales in 'I can't work things out' shock!

Let me help you because I (and many millions of others) have worked it out. He was dethroned because a majority of self-interested (and certainly not principled) Tory MPs decided they would lose the next election (and their own seats in many cases) with him as leader.

They were using the latest opinions polls, not a Klaus Schwab checklist, to make that decision.

You are forgetting that it was Boris who made the decision to crack on with ESG policies (amongst other things) which have now brought countries like Germany and Sri Lanka to their knees. You don't know what is going on behind the scenes and who is onboard, and who isn't. The next general election is scheduled for 2024, but for some reason there was a sense of urgency to get rid of him right now.

I doubt if anybody here have even read about Fascism. It's the pantomime "bread and circus" version of Fascism for the plebs who follow MSM slavishly

The top tip to work out whether you live in a fascist state is whether you can go around insulting the government daily and get away with it. If you can, hey presto! No fascism

Can one not point out that we're on the road to "fascism" (or more correctly, autocracy) or do we have to wait until we're there before calling it out, by which time it's obviously too late?

Certain individuals within and actions from the current government suggest to me that this road is being travelled. I'm sure you disagree but don't attempt to silence those of us who can see the direction of travel

But Digital ID and Central Bank Digital Currency will be so convenient, and bugs are actually very tasty.

There's no attempt to silence. Just stating my position.

That you interpret that as an attempt to silence may mean that other things are equally misinterpreted as fascism?

I see no evidence of it whatsoever to be honest. Our prime minister has been held to account by the press, by the judiciary and by protesters in recent months. Having been democratically elected in 2019 he stood down and the new leader will face an election within the next 3 years.

I do have concerns about creeping authoritarianism, most notably about an economy shifting away from cash which I consider a very dangerous precedent, the power of big tech, as well as the ease with which Covid restrictions were imposed and stuck, but I don't think we are remotely close to fascism.

You may want to revaluate your position when the climate restrictions drop.
