He switched from being the angriest he’d ever been in his life to chuckling 3 seconds later.

Almost as if that was…fake outrage and this is performative nonsense.

so just to confirm, newspaper causing security threat to his family = bad, but him causing security threat to millions of minority people = good. got it

Heard this all before.

Get on with it.

He’s standing down, to stand again? Huh?

ahhhhh so basically, if he wins byelection and becomes an MP again for Clacton it means any donations he received prior to standing again become null and void and he can’t be scrutinised for it

this is a big gamble. if it pays off then he can’t be investigated officially anymore. if he loses then obviously he’s toast.

this does however mean he KNOWS he’s done something wrong and will get in trouble for it

Right…

What.

All that shit about being attacked…families blah blah is why i am going to…carry on.

By resigning does it mean the standards committee can’t get him? Guess that’s all it is.

According to the Guardian:

*If parliament is dissolved or the member otherwise ceases to be a member while an investigation is in progress, the commissioner will suspend their investigation until the member is re-elected. If the member is not returned to parliament, the commissioner will decide if it is appropriate and proportionate to resume their investigation.
*

What a truly odious, slippery little bastard he is.

How’s he basically just blagged his way to getting a full party broadcast on all channels?

Also, ā€˜the establishment are against me’

You’re the fucking establishment mate! You’re literally a privately educated millionaire

I don’t think he wants to be elected, I think he is caught between a rock and a hard place. An inquiry in to his dealings about to bring him down and the promises made for that money that need delivered. This is his get out of it all clause.

Don’t they dislike him any way as he’s never there?

i’m nooooot convinced this is a sure win for him by any means. Clacton don’t seem happy that he’s literally never there and hasn’t delivered on anything whatsoever

This schtick is definitely wearing thin. With all Trumps bullshit not sure he can pull it any more.

I am not so hopeful.

If he’s voted back in or not, he’s still a massive scumbag worm and I doubt it will be the last we hear of him. He slunk off before then rematerialised after a while.

Hopefully he gets chucked in the sea.

Trying to wrap my head around what he’s actually trying to sell.

So he says he’s the most attacked politician eva (apart from the murdered one obvs). He’s had enough etc.

So that’s why he’s going to resign his seat for some reason…and then try and win it back…for some reason.

Makes perfect sense.

Bad week for Prince Harry. I’d just stay in LA doing edibles if I was him
