  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ก.ย. 2024
  • This week's fool is former Tory MP and Brexiteer Andrea Leadsom who still thinks the Tories left the new Labour government a fast growing economy. The line was pretty well received from former Labour Minister, David Blunkett, when both appeared on the Sophy Ridge show.

    Former Tory MPs of no relevance continue to be given air time to spout their nonsense - WHY??

    • @TheGlasgowGamer

      Because it is no secret that the media likes politicians who make people (except themselves) poorer.

      However Labour in government for 10 weeks give them a chance to try and correct 14 years of the Tories horrendous time in government. Not an easy task that can't be done in 10 weeks.
      Just be content that the Tories are out. Wonderful is that.

The only thing she'll ever be remembered for is her idiotic gaffe in 2016, during the Tory leadership campaign to replace Cameron. She then claimed she'd make a better PM than Treeza, simply because she'd had kids and Treeza hadn't. As well as being an example of idiotic reasoning, many people thought it also rather offensive. That well and truly kyboshed her leadership campaign, she withdrew from the contest and left Treeza as last woman standing. It seems, watching this interview, she's got worse, denying the reality..

At the same time a dog's natural instinct is to follow their owner's lead on who they should trust, they're very good at reading body language so if their owner isn't acting like someone is a member of the pack they'll often go into protective mode.
