Granted this is to a crowd of Torries but what a load of tosh it is.

    Lol. None of them have that. The videos coming out of the conference are appalling. There was a video of a Tory member being escorted out of Cruella’s homophobic and transphobic speech for calling it homophobic, while she says, “Those who fail to conform are persecuted.”

      Yeah, the watered down rivers of blood speech seems to have gone unchallenged as the disgusting racist witterings of a goblin that it was.

      I love that she took time to throw her own parents to the wolves to justify her racism too. What a horror movie of a human being.

        I watched a speech she gave to some American Conservative group. She was pretty much referencing ‘Great Replacement Theory’. The future she wants will endanger her own family.

        Rishi just made a massive transphobic statement. At this point I’m not even sure they’re actually creating culture war or if they are genuinely this evil.

          Don’t ask if they’re evil or creating culture war. It’s the same thing. Culture war was a means by which my country sanitized and later exported responding to calls for equality with militaristic response. This isn’t a war, woke doesn’t threaten anyone inherently. The evil people want to frame it in their terms, don’t let them, it won’t go well.

          Cruella said in her speech, if Starmer gets in, Britain will go proper woke!

          FFS!

    I really don’t like this thing about spouses giving speeches. I mean, what does it actually achieve?

      Her family’s money/influence is probably a large part of what got Sunak where he is
