Video of #KillTheBill activists on #PritiPatel chat is funny – but also shows she can’t answer real questions
Here’s an insight into the way your Tory overlords behave.
Priti Patel went on a video chat with what she thought was a group of Conservative supporters. You can see it on Skwawkbox. No doubt she was expecting a few carefully-vetted questions for which she could provide some carefully-rehearsed answers.
What she got was a group of “Kill the Bill” protesters, angry at her Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill that is intended to criminalise public protest in the United Kingdom. I don’t condone their behaviour because, to be honest, they went rampant on the text chat in a way that wasn’t likely to do their cause any good.
What the incident demonstrates, though, is the polarity of thought in the upper echelons of the Conservative Party.
The chat’s host apologised for the incident, stating, “I’ve no idea how these leftists got in on the call.”
“Leftists”? How do they know?
The simple fact is that Patel’s Bill will outlaw protest by people of any political denomination: left, right, up, down, centre (wherever that is) – they’ll all go to jail for raising a finger, if she has her way.
But people with a legitimate right to question her policy were put down as “leftists” by the chat host.
One may conclude that this person is as much a fascist as Patel herself.
Perhaps everybody taking part (other than the protesters) is of the same persuasion.
The question we, as ordinary citizens of the United Kingdom, have to ask is:
Do we want these creepy ghouls to have authority over us?
