It just goes to show the beauty of hindsight.
And people wonder why the Tories fail in Wales.
I’ll leave no stone unturned or any opportunity to go begging in lambasting the Tory c*nts. Disraeli was a prick as well, does that go far enough back for you? Horrible, cruel lot and their past odious behaviour should always be brought up to remind people, how would we ever learn otherwise?
The tories are not to be trusted , they put money before people and always have , its in their genes
That new chancellor is being lorded as the nice face of the tory party
Thats going to come back and bite him on the arse !
Ken Clarke , John Major , old school tories , the rest of them naaa
I have never studied Disraeli but do know that the Tories under him passed a factory act which provided workers protection, another act to allow peaceful picketing and another which let workers sue employers if they broke legal contracts plus other reforming legislation. Did some decent things then
An often used aphorism of Disraeli “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damn lies and statistics.”
As true now as it was then
Disraeli was of course the first one nation conservative.
The Liberal-Labour (these were Liberal MP's backed by a Trade Union) said of Disraeli's workers reforms of the 1870's "The Conservative party have done more for the working classes in five years than the Liberals have in fifty."
Still not sure why Splott Parker thinks so badly of him
And the tories have spent the last hundred and forty years more than making up for their apparent generosity towards the working class in the 1870s .
My teacher was right though, Gladstone would probably have felt more at home in today's Conservative party than Disraeli.
