How does he fucking manage it
#Who the hell does he think he is
#Yeah let's just block the debating of a motion of no confidence in the Prime Minister
#A motion of no confidence the Tories were fully expected to win by the way
#As usual the man in number 10 thinks he's above the rules and conventions that everybody else respects
#And his team have found a loophole as ever so that he doesn't have to bother
#The fucking GALL of the man
#Nothing to gain except the further erosion of the conventions and traditions of British democracy
#Or at least whatever passes for it nowadays
#Unless they were really THAT scared of their own MPs voting against them
#Tory whips say the motion fell outside normal convention because the PM was singled out
#When exactly has this government EVER cared about convention
#They are the poster children for 'Oh but it's not TECHNICALLY against the rules so it's OK'
#Utterly blase
#Call me old-fashioned but as much as I would like Scottish independence I think that those in Westminster
#who claim to want to STAY in Westminster
#Should observe the traditions and parliamentary conventions of that place
#ESPECIALLY if their name is the 'conservative' party and they like to go on and on about British democracy
#I could understand if they thought the rules needed changing but no they're just massive hypocrites who think the rules don't apply to them
#Frankly disappointed that Lindsay Hoyle isn't hammering on the door of Number 10 with a horsewhip right now
#But I suppose that wouldn't be in accordance with parliamentary convention either WHICH EVERYBODY ELSE HAS TO RESPECT
#Except Boris apparently who thinks he's some kind of president
#Government has way too much control over the house and its timetable but I understand that's the rules
#However even if it IS their prerogative to deny time for the debate
#Doesn't change the fact that if the Tories were (as thought) so likely to win the motion of no confidence
#why have they been too cowardly to allow it to be debated
#Chickens didn't want to be exposed as siding with Boris to their constituents but also wanted to stay in power
