Today he told me that he officially left the Conservative party, and showed me his letter!!

All his friends have actually been congratulating him. He told me he knew of 6 others who have done the same! (Sadly some of them for racist reasons because they have joined the Reform party instead, which is horrendous).

I asked him what the final straw was, because I know there is a lot of policies he disagrees with them on, and I have been working on him for years.

And he said it was the current lack of democracy, and all the back stabbing in the party with them having no unity. Which I think does highlight what a mess our democracy is at the moment. Our meme game is definitely stronger than our democracy.

Like this is how fucked we are, my Dad pointed out that if King Charles refused to accept Rishi Sunak as PM, the law says we'd have to have a GE. Like this is extremely unlikely to actually happen, but being British I keep finding the weird situation where our unelected leaders, keep trying to protect our democracy. Which is mind blowing if you think about it.

Like the House of Lords tried to protect our human rights over the really messed up "Policing Bill" that Priti Patel pushed for, which gets rid of our rights to peaceful protest, and they actually got some of the human rights violations pushed back.

Like if all this isn't a sign that we need major reform. I don't know what is.

I honestly thought it was law that you couldn't have two unelected leaders in a row. Honestly we really should have that as a law, because the people have every right to say who governs them.

[ID: Screenshot of a tweet by Peter Stefanovic which reads:

“Boris Johnson said if we left the EU there would be an extra £350bn a week for the NHS

He also said he had a a plan to fix social care which did not involve raising taxes

Now he is now hiking taxes to a 70 year high to pay for the NHS & social care
