UK Parliamentary General Election 8th June 2017

The Tory implosion  would be hilarious if (a) we weren't in the middle of negotiating Brexit and (b) the alternative wasn't comrade Jezza

Well, today has seen the resignation of the defence secretary over largely undisclosed allegations of sexual misconduct, so we might be heading for a Tory implosion over the next few months.

Also wasn't there a UK political crisis thread, but I couldn't find it.

What's that? The "who's a naughty boy" list of the Tory party?

[garbon]

Yes, though it includes people who had affairs while married / married the people they had said affairs with (or as it lists for Amber Rudd that she had a workplace relationship!).

[Richard Hakluyt]

Alun Cairns appears to be on the list for being gay.

Tory politician commits sexual harassment - nothing to see here, move along
Labour politician commits sexual harassment - this is thoroughly unacceptable and there will be a full investigation.

Corbyn is old and is sticking to the party consensus. Given labours last manifesto I'm not concerned about Corbyn even though he himself is a dinosaur.
Plus, get rid of the tories and maybe the lib dems can step up as a viable opposition again. Liberal economic policy but not evil.

One of them already has resigned.

I thought this list was a "MPs who were inappropriate" how can you  make that list for being gay?

It is a tittle-tattle list, all the MPs on it are Tories for example; so it also caters for homophobes and the generally prurient.

I really wonder what "being inappropriate" means in this context. 

[Tamas]

I really wonder what "being inappropriate" means in this context. 

Apparently, being gay.

Actually that particular guy doesn't have anything in his file about being inappropriate. 

[Gups]

I really wonder what "being inappropriate" means in this context. 

Who the hell knows. I hate that term.

Apparently having grabby hands is not part of it, as that seems to be a separate offence.

Fallon supposedly out over lewd comments to Leadsom.
