The Tories are basically in the bunker now.

The last days are here for them and they’re lining their pockets before being booted out.

And yet.

And yet….

People will still vote for them, believing they give the slightest shit in return.

The phrase Stockholm Syndrome needs updating…

It’s got to the point now that they just can’t be arsed doing a cover up.

They’re even claiming the price of a pint down the pub has decreased by 11p.

Well, that’s utter bollocks.

Rishi and Hunt trying to pretend they give a fuck about their local pubs by reducing duty on beer is a mix between Partridge and Al Murray. 
 

'An increased duty in the wine for the ladies'

They’ve only not increased duty by as much as they have for supermarkets.

I wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if they win the next General Election. We're a proper cauldron of thicko's.
