We all knew there were parties. This doesn’t tell us anything new.

Good grief is it powerfully graphic though. Memorable and angering.

Nothing will really come if it though, apart from a lot of frothing and keyboard bashing.

The faster the Tory party implodes, the faster we'll get to a point where we can.

Perhaps reviewing the honours bestowed on Bailey and Mallet by Boris might be a reasonable and sensible outcome? Perhaps it's old fashioned, but I think accountability matters in a democracy.

You think they will call an early GE because of a party video or three?

No, but these videos are clearly a product of growing factionalism and tension in the party. The faster they descend into outright civil war, the more likely we are to get a snap GE.

I think the opposite. The less chance of winning the next GE means those in power will hang on to it for a long as possible.

I don't think the public have moved on from this quite as much as you may think.

Vandem's finally found the video of a topless Boris frolicking on a beach then?

What is this ‘frothing’ when it’s actually a case of people just being utterly fked off with what went on and the sacrifices they made whilst it went on.

“ A spokesperson for the Bailey campaign said: “This is an old story. We repeatedly apologised for this event at the time. It was subject to a nearly year-long police investigation. The matter is closed.”

The fking state of that.

Firstly you don’t get to decide that it’s closed. The Met does. Secondly. fk off. Also thirdly. fk off.

Reward for losing another mayoral election? Life peerage.

Fourthly. fk off.

Maybe, but I personally don’t think yougov polls hold much weight.

God knows how that website works but there didn’t seem to be an amount of people asked published.

And for the record, I agree with the 45%.

If the sample has been picked properly it'll likely be within a few percent.

Finally seen the video on the news. They really are an odd, ugly looking bunch aren't they! I sincerely hope that Labour will know how to throw a signicantly better party too when they take over.
