Fat People.
Tory MP says poor people are 'fattest' and need to be taught to eat healthily
Sir Desmond Swayne said families on benefits who are forced to turn to foodbanks should learn to do food shopping “more cost effectively”
Writing in a local newspaper he argued foodbanks are an “important contribution” to the welfare system.
But checks should be made to see how families “actually spend” their benefits, the MP for New Forest West, in Hampshire added.

Having proper set meal times would help, not help yourself cos I can’t be arsed to cook.
Exercising is free to all. Again, can’t be arsed.
thats why i will always be rubbish at cards
If you put more in the top end that comes out of the bottom end = fat(ter)
Exercise being the main factor that changes the above dynamic...
We are currently eating very well/healthily (see fat club the sequel), frankly our food bill has risen by, maybe 25/30%

Boris Johnson news: Tory minister ridiculed over Brexit claim.
Tory health minister Nadine Dorries has been widely mocked for claiming “Brexit got done” after the Withdrawal Agreement Bill cleared the Commons. The bill still needs approval in the Lords, and a UK-EU trade deal still needs to be forged after 31 January.

Equality campaigners accuse Ipswich MP Tom Hunt of ‘ill judged piece of dogwhistling’
A Tory MP has been accused of fuelling racism after appearing to blame crime in his constituency on minority groups.
Tom Hunt, the MP for Ipswich, claimed that a “disproportionate number” of offences in the town were committed by “individuals from certain communities”.
The claim drew fire from a local racial equality group, which accused him of “an ill judged piece of dogwhistling”.
Mr Hunt, who won the Ipswich seat from Labour at the general election, stood by his comments, although it remains unclear which communities he was referring to.

Hi Abdul,
Not sure, but I think your last 2 Posts on this thread are intended for the Brexit thread?
Exclusive: Account named 'Stuart Anderson MP' deleted potentially damning sections from site
A new Tory MP appears to have edited his own Wikipedia page to remove references to funding that one of his companies received from the EU and information about illegal dividends that he was paid.
Stuart Anderson, who became the MP for Wolverhampton South West last month, seemingly removed the potentially damning information from the site days after being elected.
The edits made to Mr Anderson's Wikipedia page by the user included removing a section on reports that a security company founded by the MP, a supporter of Brexit, had benefited from £500,000 from an EU-backed fund.
The "Stuart Anderson MP" Wikipedia user also removed two references to Mr Anderson having been paid illegal dividends by another of his companies. The firm, called Anubis Associates, collapsed in 2013, owing HMRC £272,000 in tax and £179,300 to other unsecured creditors.
When the company, which trained security guards, was wound up, administrators found that Mr Anderson had been paid more than £54,000 in unlawful dividends in 2011.
He was endorsed by Boris Johnson during the election campaign. The prime minister said at the time: “I am so proud that he is standing as the Conservative candidate. We want to help start-ups here and get the economy really moving."

Newly elected MP recently investigated over alleged antisemitism in pro-Boris Johnson group
He said those tenants should be forced to live “in a tent in the middle of a field” after being kicked out of their homes.
“Six o’clock every morning let’s have them up, let’s have them in the field picking potatoes or any current seasonal vegetables, back in the tent, cold shower, lights out, six o’clock, same again the next day,” Mr Anderson said.

I suggest a new thread.
Maybe “ The Lying Tory Scoundrels” would be fitting.
