    You can’t help but admire the refinement and dignity of the Conservative party.

    I'll just admit it. I'm one of the UK experts in fracking and the general consensus is laughably incorrect.

    Will it work? Yes
    Is it safe? Yes.
    Is it viable? Yes
    Is it going to reduce our bills? No
    Is it going to increase our reliance on fossil fuels? Yes

    The technicalities are full of laughable misinformation. Literally, whatever you think you know, you're almost certainly wrong.

    But even I wouldn't advocate a push towards shale gas.

    We need to look towards renewable energy. Fossil fuels are the past.

    Local agreement? Are you kidding me? Cuadrilla made an unacceptable mistake and have laid the foundation for a rejection of shale gas, despite the process of hydraulic fracturing existing for decades in "conventional" extraction. It's called reservoir engineering. Reservoir Stimulation. People against fracking for the technique are an embarrassment. But if you're against the general idea of Fossil Fuels then I am 100% with you.

    Amongst the collection of non-entities who now comprise our government Baker really stands out as very, ahem, 'full-on':

    The ERG are a cancer in the politics of this country. They remind me of the role the politruk played in the Soviet armed forces - all orders (policies) had to go through them so they could be assessed for adhering to the party line. FWIW the politruk never really went away in the Russian forces - they were re-named in 2018 to the snappily re-named 'Main Military-Political Directorate of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (GVPU VS RF)'.

    I'm in the position of outing myself as a woke snowflake (at 53) but after the very public manifestations of Gazza's numerous mental health crises: is repeating this tweet 'fair' (I won't say in 'poor taste' as that's very much in the eye of the beholder)?

    I'm getting a T-shirt made up with "LIZ TRUSS #1 FAN" across the front. I think she's doing a fabulous job and I really hope she doesn't leave any time soon. Go on Liz! You're a fighter, not a quitter! Let's have more of the same!

    Across the back of the t-shirt I'm going to have "please throw the ball back to me" as I thought that slogan looked great on our ball boys on Saturday.

    From one snowflake to another, remember to breathe, eat some tofu and maybe drink a nice flat white.

    The truth they dont want people to know while they hide behind the myth of them being "incompetent idiots".

    To be fair she (her Whips) did start a brawl in parliament yesterday, but it didn’t seem to help.

    Needs to be a GE, won't be as it will be the death of the Tories. Shame.

    Why was she laughing during her speech? Does she even know what the words she was reading meant?

    My three month old son is on his fourth chancellor and soon his third PM.

    Even he thinks there should be a GE.

    Almost impossible to imagine anything but utter conflict around her successor.
