Tory liar refuses to admit her lie time and time again
Tory lies alert: yes, it’s a cartoon of David Cameron, so now you know that we’ve been catching Tories lying for at least eight years.
Here’s Clare Coutinho, Energy Secretary and Net Zero Secretary, and liar.
Apparently in her Conservative Propaganda Carnival – I mean, Party Conference – speech, Ms Coutinho told an extremely off-colour joke about the Labour Party planning to tax meat.
There is no Labour Party plan to impose a tax on meat, although I wouldn’t put it past Keir Starmer to have been writing the idea down on the back of an envelope if he heard about it.
Sophy Ridge from Sky News tackled her about it and she absolutely refused to give an inch:
Incredible
How do they do it?
Any sane person would surely concede and say:
‘You got me, I was chatting bollocks’
Not these charlatans though

That frozen expression on Coutinho’s face when she realises what she’s being asked is priceless. It’s a real rabbit-in-the-headlights moment.
And she can’t deny that she made it up.
