Tory Axe Hovers Over Democratic Deselection!
After our denunciation of the Tory elite the other day…
Tory Democracy? Kidding, Right? Tory Jackboot, More Like!
…one sometime leading member of that effete in-crowd has owned up to how the party bosses don’t hesitate to crush democracy when the grass-roots members dare defy the nabobs.
We heard from another super-rich Remainer, Cast-Iron Cameron’s comrade-in-arms…

Cameron, Johnson, Osborne – Project Fear 101

…ex-Chancellor George Osborne.
He gave vent to a tirade after Remainer Dominic Grieve got a slap-down by the rank and file members in his Beaconsfield constituency.
In his fury, Osborne spilt the beans!

‘The Tory leadership can stop any deselection if it wants – we frequently did…CCHQ should suspend the local party. Otherwise we are heading for a huge, historic split in the Tory Party…’ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6867573/Tory-MPs-opposed-hard-Brexit-fear-new-deselection-moves.html
NB – ‘FREQUENTLY!’

How frequently?
How many times have the stuck-ups stomped party democracy?
Somebody should investigate Osborne’s boast of autocratic intrusions against what should always be the right of local people to choose their parliamentary representative.
It’s a right we know May equally detests, as we reported several months ago…

You did say the Tory top brass would use dirty tricks to stop the deselection campaign and I feared you would be correct with your prophesy.
Even so, the Remainers can be made so unwelcome that they quit of their own accord, like Boles has done.
Were you watching his quit speech?
I had never seen him before, just read wbout him. An unimpressive person.
I thought the funniest part was when he turned to walk out and some plaintive little Tory called after him, ‘Nick, don’t go!’
So sad, I don’t think!
