It's gone. I wonder why?

Is this the Boris banger firm trying to clean up a PR clusterfuck?

[Big Arnold]

Probably. They've probably abandoned plans for the Chunt Chorizo.

The Digby Jones of diplomacy isn’t keen on his usual Brexit hubris this week

[Big Arnold]

In response to the social media storm, Heck has released a statement insisting that they do not “specially endorse any candidate,” adding that “You have to work with who is going to be in power whatever your political view...”

So where's the Jeremy Hunt photoshoot? And since when do food manufacturers have to work with the PM?

Grandfather would be proud.

[Samanfur]

Stopped clocks and all that.

He can be a disagreeable old bastard without breaking sweat but his #hashtagsarelegendary.

He's one of a dwindling bunch of Tories John Major would have trusted with a job. Actually, I think Soames was Minister for Food or something. Saw him on Question Time once, where he dealt with a question about violence on TV by referring to The Sweeney.

Luckily this by Dougie Carswell is paywalled. But the headline is great. Which politician do you think of as "screeching elite"? Yep, John Major. Famously lampooned as a posh banshee on Spitting Image.

[Big Arnold]

John Major's outburst will only quicken the screeching downfall of our elite

Is that supposed to be a bad thing?

[youngian]

What contorted bollocks is Carswell arguing behind the paywall?

[Tubby Isaacs]

On past form, people who disagree with him will be "the elite".

[Big Arnold]

Why would he be concerned about the downfall of those he disagrees with?

[Boiler]

Carswell. A bloke who hates the left so much he only speaks out of the right hand side of his mouth.
