If you voted conservative it's what you got whether you wanted them or not.
The labour party have their own divisions in their party. They've ditched Corbyn and his socialist/ commy policies and going down the Starmer way and if the public votes them into office they too will have Corbyn supporting policy mps in their fold.

And if they're political opponents of another politcal faction, they weren't elected.

Can someone explain that to fillyboy?

These opponents would have to be mps to gain office. Think filly knows that so won't need an explanation.

They were elected as Tory MPs, not as members of the ERG.
I very much doubt if any of them professed their intention of joining the ERG during their campaigning.
Does that make then devious? Elected for one party, but secretly representing another? (you mentioned UKIP)

Did you not know political parties have different factions contained within them, that explains everything.

 

[carmanmemoranda]

That's what mps do till the whips deal with them. When they can't you get a divided party which can mean getting voted out of office.
Do you not know all this, if not I don't think you should be allowed to vote.

You say you don't vote, so it shouldn't matter to you whether you think he is right or wrong

Everything??
Maybe the fullest extent of your knowledge, judging by your comments.

It's a slippery slope when governments start ostracising their political opponents.
The UK wouldn't do that would they?

Greenpeace were standing for election?

Correct. The UK wouldn't do that and Greenpeace will not be standing in the next general election.

 

[Roy Bloom]

Correct. The UK wouldn't do that and Greenpeace will not be standing in the next general election.

The UK have cut their ties with Greenpeace. I'd say that's ostracising them.


And we all knew (except you) that greenpeace are not up for election.

The Green party support has been growing steadily. The Tories are silly to throw what little green policies they enjoyed. But they have.

The UK have cut their ties with Greenpeace.

Not the UK.

Sunak's government.

No doubt he is feeling peeved.
