Seizing back control: The ILX lol brexit is how we're all gonna die thread.

xp Just Boris being Boris.

xp

he is struggling a bit because he knows he can't win with unfettered boris and this muted version of him hasn't got much to say.

he's over

obviously so are we

Wtf

WATCH: Conservative MP Mark Field shoves a protestor against a pillar then grabs her by her neck and shoves her out of the Mansion House dinner after climate change protestors interrupted the banquet. pic.twitter.com/DFwZYxROfF

Field's first marriage to Michèle ended in divorce in 2006, with his ex-wife citing his affair with Liz Truss.[41] Elizabeth Truss is now Conservative MP for South West Norfolk since 2010 and a Cabinet member since 2014.

Looks like he's been at some of Michael Gove's magic powder.

his wife wouldn't have divorced him for publicly throttling a green protester, but fucking Liz truss was the last straw!

the longer version is far worse.

In this longer version of the video, you can see the woman apparently posing no immediate threat as she passes behind Mark Field. He marches her out of the room by her neck. I wasn’t there, so I can’t say she didn’t pose a risk, but it looks heavy handed. pic.twitter.com/zX2BtcPW4t

I mean EVEN worse

they practically fucking soil themselves thinking why people would even josh about throwing battery in their faces... do these cunts.

battery acid .. obv I'd just stab them with a knife.

That’s quite upsetting, really hope he faces some consequences for this.

get him charged. dick

sorry about stabby knife talk, but Fuck these arseholes - hope they all die - very slowly.

jail the cunt

Meanwhile on QT, the Tottenham audience absolutely rinsed the right wingers and a 17-year-old boy told Tim Martin to STFU.

some fierce and inspiring women on QT tonight. The young woman earlier on with the braids in a top knot as well as the crew later on.

Definitely. I wasn’t going to watch because of the guests but I saw Tottenham was the setting and N15/N17 did not disappoint.

classic Labour move.

Clear Labour will push this tomorrow. 👇🏼 https://t.co/7C6Q2gz6aO

👀 In April Mark Field sent a letter to the Met demanding “a much firmer grip” on climate change protesters - eek pic.twitter.com/BYycEMz1i6

we need to take the politics out of assault

Is Boris unbeatable? I think, amongst the Tory membership he is...but I would also say that he is deplorable...He has none of the answers to the serious issues in our nation. So he will be beatable, but it will be at a #GeneralElection. On @bbcquestiontime tonight... #bbcqt pic.twitter.com/BKNC03T3E7

Ah but Jo Cox.

This illustrates the new political divide perfectly. Ultra liberals are appalled. Opponents of ultra-liberalism see a self-indulgent protestor breaching security and heading for the Chancellor three years after an MP was assassinated. https://t.co/chM9EpI5uQ

how inconvenient for your party Laura.

I know, she’s so scummy.

Perhaps something damning will emerge that changes things, but on the face of it to me that footage makes Mark Field look like a hero. He took the initiative when others were befuddled & he risked his life (she cld easily hv had a gun or knife) to protect others. Give him a medal

makes u think

have-a-go-Lolico

outcome of brecon and radnorshire recall petition expected today. LDs widely touted to win that by election if it happens. this reduces BJ’s working majority to two

xps Wait is Laura K. bad not good? (I only occasionally see her doing stand ups outside of Westminster tbh)

awful tory party stenographer ime. even bobby pesto found a half decent line on this

Mark Field should resign. #Girls4Gove denounces all forms of violence or physical force against women. The only time a man should touch a woman is if he is touching her heart — just like @MichaelGove has done for so many of us up and down the country. Women love Michael Gove!

— Girls4Gove (@girls4gove) June 21, 2019

at least there are some sensible conservative voices out there :p

If Mark Field is charged and found guilty of assault could he hold on to his seat?

Forget twitter arguments either way, there's a video here.

you would suspect that that would also precipitate a recall petition

Iain Martin, another right wing Tory tosser from Paisley - not that you'd guess where he's from from the accent.

Foreign media outlets are also reporting on Mark Field's outburst. nagl, to say the least.

Field is basically the MP for Zone 1 and there are only about 4000 votes in it.

Suspended now.

Lol

highlights from the IPPR report on tHe NOrtHeRn POwErhOUsE - https://www.ippr.org/blog/the-northern-powerhouse-5-years-in:

+ between 2009/10 and 2017/18 the North has seen a £3.6 billion cut in public spending, while the South East and the South West together saw a £4.7 billion rise (in real terms). London also saw a cut in spending, but by far less, at £256 million.

+ 200k more children living in poverty in the north since 2014

+ more jobs, more low paid jobs

+ more mayors & combined authorities (w/ little power)

*that's* what I like about Osborne's legacy... absolutely nothing.

lol when calz confused frank field w/dobson i was briefly like dobbo is not the worst -- he was reluctantly pushed into standing against ken and ken is kinda bad not good anyway -- but by all means drop a dime on FF in place of mark field

outcome of brecon and radnorshire recall petition expected today.

It's passed.

200k more children living in poverty in the north since 2014

It could be worse :p

Xps

For some reason my abiding memory of Dobson is of him telling a reporter to "get stuffed" when an impertinent question was asked about his beard or something to do with his appearance.

absolutely ludicrous to suggest Frank Field would have physically assaulted a protester when he's perfectly capable of placing them under a hypnotic trance and then sucking their blood at leisure

lolz

From what I remember about Frank Dobson his campaign was like 90% folornly explaining to reporters that he really did want the job, honestly, and wasn't secretly miserable that Blair had decided to try and shuffle him out of Parliament.
