I can detect the sweet smell of a goose being cooked.

He and Dave have never been the best of friends, I read earlier today. Not that there is any real concern to the wider public...all this internal party inter-personality badinage does no more than keep the non Whiskey glass holding hand busy.

I would imagine Whiskey or something similar has led to this tonight!

Is this the start of a schism in the Tory party? This could prove potentially damaging to the Conservatives. Looks like it's going to hit big-time the press before dawn.

More striking than the aspect of un-gentlemanliness, is the one of childishness. This is supposed to be a grown man doing a tough job.

Anyone on this forum ever heard of gaygirlinsyria spoof blog and other parodies, spoofs, mischief making? I'm sure you have. That Twitter feed is almost certainly not from the real man, its a parody, spoof, bit of mischief making.

Someone is having the most glorious laugh. The tweets get more and more bizarre as time goes on.

I know that man is the north side of arrogant and the spin he puts on his role surpasses the ridiculousness of the title of his ministry but really this a story which is as interesting as a premier football match or even the Olympics.
A non story.
If you want to get to the man there are far more grown up ways to do it. It all smacks of playground antics and diminishes us all.
No doubt the word pleb will be considered to top the list of proscribed words which, erm, "offend".
Plod should grow up and grow some. It seems that they have the upper echelons of the force now joining the ranks of victimhood and the using the word pleb is to be seen as a hate crime.

Merely proves he was not up to the job in the first place. Although the bit about DC snogging Rebekah is going to delight the tabloids.

For Follows, I can add 500 follows in about 2 hours, all prominent media and political. TV, so can anyone. Followers...his name is in the news, his first tweet was pretty much the same day he appeared in the news and anyone looking for news on this guy can find this twitter feed and follow it, no problem getting a couple of thousand followers within a day or so if your twitter feed is saying ludicrous things and the name on the feed is one that is behind a very controvertial story.
Almost 100% this is a parody.

Look at the way followers has grown in the last 90 minutes. When I first looked at it, followers were 1400, now there are 4700. The number of followers is no indication of spoof or real.

And now the twitter feed announces itself as a spoof.

I've been watching this debacle for the past couple of hours since the tweets started, it took about 30 mins for the first chants of "Spoof" were heard.
I've now marked his account as spam as he's claiming to have spoofed 24k twitter users, possibly including the recent spoof Sky News account that announced the (premature) passing of one of our former female PMs.
