But even that is a typically disingenuous Tory statement...
He also said that until recently he thought government MPs would be given a free vote, which may help to explain why he was so specific in the promise he made to his constituents.
It certainly does.
Never, ever trust a Tory. If their lips are moving, they are lying. If they write a statement, they are lying. And if it comes from Tory HQ, they are double lying.
The expression is 'You can tell whether a politician is lying, their lips are moving'.
That is whatever party they represent.
We get it canny. You don't like Tories/the Conservatives.
I'm sure you can post a list of Caroline Lucas's lies. Away you go. A half dozen should suffice.
Do you know what? I've never even heard of her.
Just another politician no doubt lining their pockets, milking the gravy train and in it for themselves not the voters. That pretty well covers every politician.
