bickster Posted November 8, 2022 Moderator Share Posted November 8, 2022 Quote Police have launched an inquiry after a box of faeces was left outside the office of a Tory MP in Gloucestershire. Siobhan Baillie, who represents Stroud, said there were "plenty of ways to make a point about politics or governments without resorting to putting excrement in a box" outside her workplace. In a tweet, she condemned the "nastiness" MPs face, warning that as a result "many decent people are thinking twice about standing for public office". SKY Turd in a box for Tory MP Sorry, I shouldn't but .... PS Never heard of her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made it 1 “Corbyn” and 0 Brexits. It’s hilarious that they keep going on about Corbyn like he is Hitler and Putin rolled into 1. Maybe he wouldn’t have been an ideal PM but flipping heck, it’s been years and they’re still suggesting they saved the country from the devil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
