Usually cycling the Northern Fells or the hills around Paphos. An asylum seeker from Twitter & Brexit - likely to go off on a tangent for no reason at all........ I'm not an Expat I'm an immigrant & grateful for being accepted by my adopted home

It's why it's time for SOMEONE (hello LibDems) to step right in to that gap! One Nation policies, Opportunity for the masses, Acceptance that we've ALWAYS needed to both look "after our own" and bolster & diversify through positive immigration!

Interestingly BBC has ran a couple of features on "Young Conservatives" last couple of days...... they all look EXACTLY as you'd expect them to, sound exactly as you'd expect them to..... The kind of Rees-Moggisms that would get a smack in the mouth in most pubs outside of Chelsea...... They REALLY

Conservative Party without total reinvention.... back to what it used to persuade the country it once offered..... and that REALLY isn't all about tax cuts!

It may well be we see the death of the Labour Party over the next 5 years if they insist on embracing Brexit - it will kill anything it touches.... because it's not of the world we live in! It's almost impossible to see the return of the

Russian interference to take over...... The failure of Cons to throw out the ERG / Bruges headbangers on their ears is coming back to haunt them. The Johnson purges more so.... It's quite possible that we're seeing the destruction of the most successful political force in British political history

are British greatness! It's only about 15 years since polling suggested the Tory's were a safer set of hands for the NHS than Labour! The decline of Conservatism is writ large in to Brexit, Entryism that was supposed to be Momentum in to Labour turned out to be UKIP in to Tory's and greed allowed

Fiscal Conservatism / supposed Law & order / Home ownership / Aspirationalism...... UK Conservatism has been " opium for the masses" has been centre right British dogma for decades...... and it self propogated as people aged! Tax Cuts, everyone likes! Until they don't have the services they believe

Because there's a number of people who believe it's the biggest problem the UK faces & she hasn't got the brains or the balls to change the conversation by pointing out the benefits of immigration! Which is REALLY funny when you think about it!

LibDems REALLY need to make a push for those centrist Conservative votes - tell the people that they stand where they stand!

Always remember that the "British" gutter press are not run by people within Britain..... they're a bunch of NonDom tax evading fuckers who have ruined Britain & have a totally different agenda..... they are a cancer that needs removed!

to go within a hundred yards of the people they want to align with... The very Liberalism of the Conservative Party is the only thing that protected them from the mob! Now they want to bed down with the EDL & NF!
Jenrick's speech is no better or worse than Powell's
They deserve to lose everything!

UK Conservatism!
from Powell, via ERG / Bruges to kissing Johnson's arse, Braverman / Patel & now they'll end up being led by Jenrick! Most of them should have not passed selection at any stage, they'd be on the fringes plotting in their golf courses..... Braverman & Patel wouldn't have been able
