Jake Berry, the very definition of hypocrisy. I think this quote is from the BBC's Chris Mason; a man who definitely wouldn't be casting the first stone:
'A man knighted by Boris Johnson. A man whose son counts Johnson as his godfather. A man who used to be the chairman of the Conservative Party and who was a Tory minister in three different government departments. And yet a man who now says this: "If you were deliberately trying to wreck the country, you'd be hard pressed to do a better job than the last two decades of Labour and Tory rule.'
If only #ReformUK had any workable policies, or even half a clue what they were doing. More importantly, if only the "old" parties stopped playing their game, and did something positive such as electoral reform or taxing the obscenely wealthy. The former would help re-engage people in politics (whilst helping to keep the extremists out), and the latter would help fix Britain's numerous problems. It's poor/disadvantaged people who are more likely to seek scapegoats and vote for the populist/fascist charlatans.

I unsubscribed on July 2nd from #cbcgem after watching #CBC air unedited feeds of #Trump’s propaganda as well as highlighting an #Alberta #separatist on #canadaday.
I also don’t appreciate CBC’s decision to withhold all comments on their #YouTube uploads. Comments help hold up-loaders accountable for bad takes.
Much like CBC’s featured disillusioned #Albertan, I too didn’t celebrate Canada Day this year, as the Prime Minister I was forced to strategically vote for is now fast tracking bills I don’t support while simultaneously capitulating to Trump.
Mark Carney is also openly supportive of yet another Liberal, federally forced, destructive bitumen pipeline across Northern BC against our province’s consent and ignoring our first nation’s rejection under the guise of “National Interest”, simply to appease a separatist Premier’s threats and fund Trump’s golden dome. This is not my #Canada, this is not my Prime Minister.
