It is circumstances like this that reveal beyond doubt what are the values of the Conservatives. The few who complained include some who did nothing when Ministers but the bulk of the Conservative Party sees no reason to object.

Left wingers are preferred to GB News, in their eyes.

However much this same small band of Tory MPs remonstrate with their Party on various issues they don’t make the slightest difference in the big state, leftwards drift of the Party.

“Good practice”??????????????????? So Cultural Marxism is good? All media must spout leftist progressive dogma to be classed as “Good”? When you only have one narrative you have tyranny. Conservative views are to be criminalised. If only 46 conservatives wrote to the prime Minister then the rest need to just admit they are no longer conservatives.

Your apparent belief that level-headed, common-sense, white British men exist marks you obviously as fascist, ie, throroughly despicable opponent of the people who don’t who’s secretly itching to genocide transwomen by excluding them from women’s sport competitions or something likewise horrible, say, torture millions of people to death.

Can’t we have some sort of truth-in-advertising which stop groups like Stop funding hate!
from using obviously misleading names for themselves to (try to) hide the actual focus of their activities? Would a betting outlet be allowed to advertise itself as Provider of financial services many people chose to trust?

How quickly would things change if all government advertising was pulled from CAN members?

Jim Hacker was meant to represent the typical, spineless Tory MP but he did at least try to fight The Blob, and occasionally won.

Pedantic comment: scepticism of or regarding, not “towards”. Sorry.

Is this the same advertising world which regularly over represents coloured and mixed race families in TV advertisements?
