"...to celebrate Paul Dacre’s 25 years as Daily Mail editor.
You couldn't make it up. What a shower of shite we're run by.

There may be more posts after this.
Agreed. Some people on here are getting carried away. The Tory cabinet is a game of Buckeroo and they all know it. Any attempt to remove the PM will throw the whole thing up in the air and then they are all fecked.

You ungrateful swine! She's doing this, and Brexit, for Britain™.

^This succinctly illustrates all that’s rotten about this so-called Government. That is not democracy. No wonder the UK is viewed with such derision overseas.

It's such a wonderfully British form of corruption, isn't it? Journalists should hold politicians to account; in the UK, we have a revolving door between the two, and nobody seems to care.

Let's not forget The Johnson's 2002 article for Daily Telegraph:
"It is said that the Queen has come to love the Commonwealth, partly because it supplies her with regular cheering crowds of flag-waving piccaninnies".
He also wrote of "watermelon smiles".
But May can't sack him for the same reason she had to give him a cabinet role.

Where's a new Guy Fawkes when his country needs him... what an opportunity! Of course Rentakill advertise that they will exterminate vermin so maybe if we have a whip round...

Another nail in the coffin...?

I hope Labour make a big pitch to small businesses at the next election. Traditionally, they are not natural Labour voters but it's obvious the Tories have abandoned them to pander to large corporations.
Labour is the only party for the many, not the few.

Did you try the trick of copying the headline and googling it? The first search result usually links directly to the story (odd, I know).
TM is safe at the moment as no one in Tory party wants an election and there isn't really a successor yet and they would probably lose to labour.
Polls have Tories neck and neck and latest poll puts may ahead of corbyn. Thankfully even with a crap Tory government we haven't completely lost perspective.
