Not A Good Week To Be A Tory

It's been a good week to be a Conservative, or it is if you were not one of those Conservatives who called someone 'coloured', or state in parliament that Islamophobia against British Muslims is a matter for the Foreign Office or say that the deaths caused by British soldiers in Northern Ireland could not be crimes because they were caused by British soldiers as put forward by the Northern Ireland secretary Karen Bradley none the less.
To be fair to Bradley she did try and make amends by confusingly saying that:  'I want to be clear – I do not believe what I said, that is not my view'. Glad we got that straight then.
This week also saw the Defence Secretary, Gavin Williamson, announce that the UK armed forces 'stand ready to respond to the knife crime crisis' so expect to see a Type 45 destroyer in a London pond soon.
At least Chris Grayling hasn't ballsed up anything that cost us £33 million this week for which we should be grateful and at least all the hapless people running our country takes our minds off Brexit for a while.
