Foreign Office investigates reports that state

Tories use tax money to fund propaganda campaign (aimed at combating fake news) ironically the proaganda campaign goes on to target polital opponent.

Honest mistake or tory scum being tory scum? You decide!

[Owlz!]

No surprise. Modern British politics is just shit-flinging from one side to the other. Have you seen parliamentary debates? It's just rowdy yelling to drown out whatever the opposition has to say, and both parties are responsible; it's the parliamentary version of screaming LALALALALALALALA so you don't have to hear what someone else has to say. I think I remember reading in the past that the current state of debates plays into why some people refuse to get into politics, because you'd expect adult behaviour but instead get confronted with visuals of a room with not enough seats [I've been in it, by the way. It's fucking tiny, and it's so weird to see in real life] where adults, many of whom are in their 40's and 50's, are just yelling and jeering like they're at a Watford football game.

Tory scum is a mistake in the first place, though 'honest' is far from a fitting descriptor.

The Tories are fucking parasites. What they've done so far to the NHS and the DWP among other thinga is disgusting, they have mismanaged this nation and done no better than the government that precedes them.

While this seems problematic and should be looked into and put right, it doesn't seem at the moment like there was any grand conspiracy involved, and it's worth noting that the Foreign Office is now saying that the IfS was hacked by Russia a few weeks ago and this story is probably part of their efforts to undermine it

And so for remaining Blairite and diehard centrist Labour supporters are likely unironically helping Tories within their party as means want Labour party to lose next election.

What?

[Jessica Cannon]

Furrybutt has, I believe, issues that make syntax difficult for them.

What they're saying, as far as I can tell, is that there's a cabal of Blairite 'New Labour' voters clinging to the old ways of Labour under Blair who are likely supporting the Tory party maintain power because they want Labour to lose the next election purely because they hate Corbyn.
