A little list of madness

You could surely find equal amounts and levels of stupidity among the Labour party these days, but they aren't in power right now.

Shit Tories say #shittoriessay

OK, I simply can't post every single dumbass thing coming out of the Tory conference in separate post, so I am going to collate them. Chances are that anything else will drive me mad anyway.

Foreign secretary Jeremy Hunt calls the EU a Soviet prison [1].

Jacob Rees-Mogg calls Lybia 'People's Republic of Jam Jar or whatever' [2].

God help us, Jacob is not finished: “What we need is not Canada plus plus, but Canada-supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, which as you all know is a word developed by a nanny and nannies are jolly good things.” [3]

David Davies: "You can buy your drinks in Belfast in euros and you can buy in Dublin with pounds" [4]. I would say trying to buy a drink in Dublin with pounds might be a singularly unhealthy idea, but thats just me.

Then there is Andrea Jenkins: Into the second hour of her speech Andrea Jenkyns calls for a new Royal Yacht Britannia to be built in the UK: "let this be the age of greatness, lets this be the age of global britain." [5]

Shaun Bailey: “We’re the most important Conservatives in the world because we’re Londoners" [6].
