Priti Patel lied to Parliament Again

Priti Patel is under fresh pressure after being accused of appearing to have misled parliament on proposed powers to crack down on protests and, separately, issuing a statement on her asylum bill that does not seem to be supported by evidence.

Both interventions from the home secretary were used to justify some of the most controversial aspects of her bills on policing and the asylum system, which have both been criticised as either undemocratic or cruel.

Of course she should resign and of course she won't even be asked to.

Contempt for her own MPs is perfectly acceptable it seems

She should be kicked out - after all it's not the first time.

But then with Johnson as her boss lying and misleading Parliament is expected.

She's a serial liar, she's been proven corrupt, she's also a notorious backstabber and thick as two short planks - if only she can get the adultery thing going she'll have all the qualifications.

I think that's CS's point - she has all the credentials required for a Tory PM. :laughing:
