I was going to do an article on this myself, but Maximilien Robespierre got here first:
Elevating this above the normal Tory cock-up is the fact that the Home Office demanded that Freedom from Torture take the video clip down from the social media, saying it was heavily edited and didn’t reflect the full exchange.
Here’s the response:
After a video was posted of Holocaust survivor Joan Salter confronting Suella Braverman, the Home Office requested it be taken down alleging it had "been heavily edited and doesn’t reflect the full exchange."
Do you think the extra material excised from the original video changed what Braverman said, in any way? I don’t!

She may have run away from public life but she can’t run away from the evidence.
Led By Donkeys, the campaign group that posts billboards contrasting politicians’ current stated opinions with those they have promoted in the past in order to call out hypocrisy, has created a new short film that you should watch.
It’s about Michelle Mone, her connection with the company PPE Medpro, and the way she was apparently paid £29 million for inducing the Tory government, during the Covid crisis, to buy millions of pieces of personal protective equipment that was unfit to be used.
The information is highly revealing, as you can see for yourself:
The doctor presenting the video would be perfectly justified to be angry about this because – as she states in the clip – the waste of money meant it could not be spent on acceptable PPE that would have been used to protect NHS staff and Covid-suffering patients.
There is a high possibility that – because of the apparent avarice of Lady Mone and her associates, and the inadequacy of Michael Gove and the Tory “VIP lane” system of allocating contracts to friends of the Conservatives – many thousands of people died.

Rees-Mogg: this Hitlerian image fits well with his politics.
I can’t believe I forgot to put this in the article about Rees-Mogg being out of the government.
Better late than never: this is a short video by Led By Donkeys, detailing the main beats – low and lower – of Jacob Rees-Mogg’s life and political career.
If you ever start feeling nostalgic for the days of “good ole Moggie”, just come back and watch this!

Sajid Javid: not only has he made himself look stupid, he has reminded us all that his political party is full of racists and reignited public fury at #ToryScum.
Conservatives who tried to claim on Twitter that left-wingers are racists have fallen foul of the facts – again.
Sajid Javid is the principle offender in this case – to judge by the number of responses to him, although James Cleverly was also involved, making it his second offence within the same day, along with a few other now-familiar Tory faces.
They were all responding to this clip, from the Twitter account @OneRuleForThem:
According to Javid, Cleverly, Tom Tugendhat, and the instigator of the #ToryScum controversy Christopher Clarkson, that advert is racist. Can you find anything in it that refers to Sunak’s ethnic origin at all, let alone in a negative way?
Neither can I.
But Javid responded thus:
The Left really, really do detest ethnic-minority Tory Cabinet ministers.
Classic DARVO: “Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender”
Javid is saying there’s nothing dodgy about Sunak (despite the evidence in the clip). He’s attacking “The Left” (not just @OneRuleForThem, I notice) with a claim that they are racist. And he’s painting Sunak as a victim of that racism rather than the shady character his own history suggests he is.
Javid was joined by Cleverly, as this response shows:
It's a bit obvious, don't you think, Sajid? Makes you look like some brainless jerk who just does whatever Cummings tells him to. https://t.co/B2JCpDm8RM
Tugendhat’s tweet earned him a response from the clip’s creator – that made him look the fool he is:
We made one about Johnson and Cummings when they stuck their fingers up to the country. It wasn’t as good, but you can watch it here:https://t.co/npZilncayw
The simple fact is that this particular organisation didn’t make a video about Hammond because it didn’t exist when he was Chancellor. It joined Twitter last month.
So let’s get back to the reaction to Javid. Here are a few examples:
You're wrong again Sajid. The left detest *all* Tory Cabinet ministers. And for very good reason. 👍🙂 pic.twitter.com/j5VoCsPg8M
— Crispian Wheldon 🍀 #GrassrootsVoice (@CrispianWheldon) October 26, 2020
No Sajid, the left hate this.
And don’t start calling the left racists when right wing conservative supporters have bullied Diane Abbott for years because of the fact she’s a black woman. https://t.co/p72yScB1BBpic.twitter.com/SNxFR93fTS
I hope Sajid will use this as an opportunity to say what a great job Sadiq Khan is doing as mayor of London. Otherwise he’s just making a cheap political point. https://t.co/ZARbgA80U1
Sajid … do you remember when they promised you an inquiry into Islamophobia in the #Tory Party? They promised you it on live TV. Did it happen? No. You know the truth … so don’t come on here talking nonsense.
That’s right – Javid did extract a promise from all the other then-Conservative leadership candidates that there would be an inquiry into Islamophobia into the Tory Party.
Once Boris Johnson was installed as leader (and new prime minister), the (also) newly-installed Tory chairman backpedalled on that promise. What was his name? Oh yes…
James Cleverly.

The graphic really is like the opening titles of Dad’s Army, but the message is perverse.
Behind graphics reminiscent of the old TV sit-com, that represented the UK’s older (and younger) citizens fending off the Nazi hordes, the Home Office comes across as having been taken over by the Nazis,
“We are working to remove” – take note of that language, remove. It means the Home Office is sending people back to the home countries they fled to seek asylum in the United Kingdom – “migrants with no right to remain in the UK”. Migrants like Mercy Baguma who, rather than being removed, was starved to death in her Glasgow home after the Home Office removed her right to remain but then did nothing, leaving her in limbo without any way of feeding herself?
“But current return regulations” to which the UK signed up “are rigid and open to abuse…” If they’re “rigid”, then it shouldn’t be possible to abuse them; they’d mean one thing only. Is it not more likely that the current regulations simply don’t allow the Home Office (as run by Priti Patel) to just kick people out willy-nilly?
“… Allowing activist lawyers” – activist? Activist? Apparently an “activist” is a person who campaigns to bring about political and social change. The use of the word suggests that this is a bad thing. But if the current regime is keen to expel innocent people to an uncertain future – on the basis of questionable information (what are the facts on which the Home Office seeks to deport these people, anyway?) then it seems to me that political and social change is not only desirable but demanded.
“… to delay and disrupt returns…” Good for them!
Then it starts to get really sinister: “Soon we will no longer be bound by EU laws and can negotiate our own return arrangements.” Doesn’t this suggest that the Tory-run Home Office, overseen by Priti Patel, is looking forward to the freedom to treat Johnny Foreigner with extreme prejudice? To treating migrants, refugees and asylum-seekers as people with no rights at all?
I fear for the future of anyone falling into the clutches of such a regime. Fascism comes very strongly to mind.
Of course, we are British – and the clip is already getting the treatment it deserves:

Speak no evil: but it was while Boris Johnson was speaking that a pupil at a Leicestershire school voiced what we all think of him.
Congratulations to the ITV microphone-jockey who picked up this little gem.
Much has been made of Boris Johnson’s visit to Castle Rock School in Leicestershire – strangely a week before term started; I wonder how the kids were enticed in. If they were hand-picked, then I expect one choice is being regretted now.
This is because – as Johnson waffled his usual piffle about schools being perfectly safe, one child was picked up by an ITV microphone describing him in exactly the same terms many of us would use:
Give this lad a medal! Schoolboy calls Boris Johnson an ars*hole as the incompetent buffoon peddles his 'schools are safe' nonsense… pic.twitter.com/lR3dMftMwp
Considering the fact that there is no evidence to support Johnson’s wild claim – he’s only saying schools are safe to get parents back to work making money for his fatcat big business friends – I can only side with the kid.
And this *rsehole’s demands could cause a lot more trouble after term starts properly.

Hand over mouth: It’s the only way he can stop himself putting his foot in it.
The first full week of the general election campaign could not have gone worse for Boris Johnson.
It was like a re-run of the Conservative government’s greatest flops since it came into office in 2010, starting with Boris Johnson’s disgusting failure to respond to the flooding crisis in the north, and ending with the Bolton blaze, accelerated by cladding – two years after dozens were killed in Grenfell Tower.
The opinion polls might have said the opposite, but he started out in a terrible situation – caused by his own government’s misbehaviour over a period of years:
There are many more clips I could have used in this piece; there will be many more to come. I’m looking forward to seeing Mr Johnson cock up his response to the Bolton blaze, for example.
For voters everywhere, there can be only one conclusion: This man and his party must be removed from office on December 12.

Now you see it: An image from yesterday’s commemoration service, at which Boris Johnson showed contempt for our Armed Forces by laying his wreath face-down.
Now you don’t: An image from the BBC’s coverage today, showing Mr Johnson laying a wreath in 2016.
Remember a few years ago, when Jeremy Corbyn laid a wreath at his first Remembrance Day as leader of the Labour Party? The BBC revelled in criticism of his behaviour (which was in fact impeccable) and his manner of dress.
Fast-forward to this year, and we all saw Boris Johnson looking scruffy and disshevelled, stepping out of line at the wrong time and laying the wreath upside-down.
That’s unless we watched BBC coverage of the event after it happened, of course.
Because the BBC decided to look for images of Mr Johnson at a previous Remembrance Day event – in 2016 – and use them instead, in what is a clear breach of reporting rules and election impartiality; this was an attempt to hide information that – properly – makes Mr Johnson look bad.
Why on Earth did anybody at the BBC think they would get away with it?
The substitution has sparked a wave of outrage which began with this tweet:
Slide One is Boris Johnson, yesterday, laying a wreath upside down on the Cenotaph
Slide Two is the footage BBC News are rolling with this morning – bizarrely, it's from 2016. pic.twitter.com/8BrOyA9Kyr
… as was the BBC’s ridiculous claim that this was a “production error”:
You're liars and we know you are. You lie about things big and small, but always to Tories' advantage. We don't believe a word you broadcast, because we have no reason to. You're corrupt, rotten and dishonest, and everyone knows that now. Labour will reform you. Bring it on.
Let’s have a few other comments. Here‘s Matt Bailey: “A production mistake… Where you mixed up yesterday’s VT with one from 2016 that you had to search for in the archives? Yes, that’s very plausible. Thank you for making it clear…..”
Author and scriptwriter Stephen Gallagher offered this: “Editorial policy of ‘Since what actually happened doesn’t make him look good, we’ll substitute something that didn’t but does’.”
And ex-BBC/Sky/Reuters/PA journo Julian Shea weighed in with: “‘Footage from less than 24 hours ago? Where am I expected to find that? What’s that you say, three years ago? Easy, it’s saved on my desktop.'”
The BBC’s claim to have made an innocent mistake is risible. As Evolve Politicsnotes:
“The BBC would have needed to search through their archives to find the 2016 footage – making the excuse that it was simply a “mistake” highly implausible.
“In addition to BBC Editors ‘mistakenly’ searching through their archives to use footage from 2016, they also appear to have overlooked the fact that the video also showed numerous politicians in attendance who have long since left their positions:
Theresa May – who is no longer PM
Angus Robertson – who is no longer the SNP Westminster leader
Tim Farron – who is no longer the Lib Dem leader
David Gauke – no longer a Cabinet Minister
Michael Fallon – no longer a Cabinet Minister
Amber Rudd – no longer a Cabinet Minister
Liam Fox – no longer a Cabinet Minister
Chris Grayling – no longer a Cabinet Minister
“Clearly an easy ‘mistake’ to make.”
It seems likely the BBC will be deluged with complaints like this:
The written complaint, sent to https://www.bbc.co.uk/contact/complaints/make-a-complaint/#/Complaint states: “I cannot accept that this was a ‘production mistake’ not least because it is clear in the 2016 footage that Theresa May and not Boris Johnson was the Prime Minister. Additionally, it surely takes some ‘skill’ to mix up footage from yesterday with footage from three years ago. I, and I know many others, can only conclude that your intention was to present the PM as more statesmanlike, more respectful, than yesterday’s performance showed him to be.
“Bias.”
As this is a clear breach of impartiality, I hope the same people complaining to the BBC are sending their complaints to Ofcom, which is still (as far as I know) conducting an inquiry into whether the BBC has breached its own rules on this.
This Writer missed the BBC Breakfast coverage. So I watched Politics Live in the hope of seeing an apology and explanation.
Did anybody else see one? I didn’t.
So I sent a tweet to the show’s editor, Rob Burley:
@RobBurl I was looking for the #PoliticsLive apology for BBC Remembrance Day coverage showing images from 2016 rather than yesterday, which someone clearly had to go and find, to use it instead of the shots of @BorisJohnson showing contempt for our veterans. Where is it please?
The BBC has outed itself as a propaganda arm of the Conservative Party. Its election coverage – and other news output – should therefore be avoided on the basis of prejudice, and should be reported to Ofcom.

But you know what? People are going to find fault with it.
They’ll say, “Where’s the evidence to back up what’s said here?”
And they’re right to do so.
Anyone coming out with criticism – especially of a political rival – needs to be able to back up what they say.
It needn’t take much effort. Obviously – if the information in the video is accurate – somebody has already researched this topic and has all the relevant web links.
So why not tweet them out along with the video clip?

Legends of British comedy have lined up to deal staggering blows to Theresa May and her plan for the UK to leave the European Union, as MPs prepare to vote on it.
Mike Harding used to be all over TV and the radio when I was younger, but seemed to have taken a step back from broadcasting in recent years.
That changed when a letter he wrote to prime minister Theresa May, in response to her missive to the nation demanding our support, went viral.
It’s a powerful piece – listen to the author reading it, if you don’t believe me – he recorded it for LBC’s James O’Brien. I’ll copy the text below.
The other comedy legend who slammed Brexit this weekend is Stephen Fry.
He shared an 11-minute animated video on YouTube and Twitter, detailing “the story of how a mythical EU dragon was conjured up” and outlining the “myths” that were spread by the campaign to leave the EU.
Here it is:
These attacks on Mrs May and Brexit – both of which have gone viral, gaining huge popularity with the general public – are critically important at this time.
Today (December 3), Parliament will find out whether Mrs May can be bothered to honour a binding vote by MPs, demanding in the name of the Queen that she make available all legal advice given to her on her Brexit plan.
On @RidgeonSunday I warned the Government that it is heading for deep water if it doesn’t publish the full legal advice on the Prime Minister’s deal, as ordered by Parliament. #Ridgepic.twitter.com/q1eGkkKd8C
When a Cabinet source is in the Sunday Times saying "the legal advice is very bad which is why they don't want anyone to see it", the govt position on not publishing is pretty obviously untenable. https://t.co/Ko0gDSk5qU
Failure to provide the information will trigger proceedings against Mrs May and her government for contempt of Parliament, which used to be a serious matter but may now be worth very little.
More importantly: If she refuses, we will take this as tacit admission that the advice suggests her plan is not only bad, but disastrous.
That may be vital in swaying MPs to vote against it in the “meaningful vote” on the Brexit plan, to take place next week (December 11? 12? Thereabouts).
The information provided here by Messrs Harding and Fry could be instrumental in helping swing MPs against Mrs May’s plan – if you, as constituents, send it to your MPs in support of your own call for them to vote it down (assuming that this is what you want. If you support the plan, you’ll have to find your own supporting information. Good luck with that).
If the plan is voted down – and some commentators are suggesting that Mrs May could lose by a margin of as many as 400 votes – then Labour will demand a vote of “no confidence” in the government.
Glad we’ve confirmed we will be calling for a vote of #NoConfidence in Theresa May when her withdrawal agreement fails to get through the house. No, I can’t see us having the numbers, but who’d imagine an extra from Home Alone 2 somehow become the leader of the ‘free world’?
It seems the Conservative government is exerting pressure on its local party memberships to demand that MPs support the plan:
I am told by Tory MPs that full force of Conservative Party machine is being mobilised to put pressure on party associations and their respective chairs to put maximum pressure on their respective MPs to back @theresa_may and her Brexit deal. How many rebel Tory MPs will buckle?
Ultimately, it may be a matter of reminding all our Parliamentarians that their behaviour will be a matter for discussion by future historians. The names of all those who take part in these crucial votes will be recorded – and may be vilified if the decision they take proves to be as disastrous as Messrs Harding and Fry suggest.
Does any MP – even the most spineless of the party faithful – want to be remembered as a toady who brought ruin down on the country?
I suppose we’ll find out in the very near future. We’ll have the names of all such representatives – if that’s the right word for them – before Christmas.
I don’t think there will be many, though. I think the arguments against the plan are persuasive, and that MPs will accept the need for a change of government rather than risking everything for the weakest and worst prime minister in living memory.
It would be ironic if a couple of comedians were responsible for swaying such a serious matter – but it would also be quintessentially British. Let’s make it so.
Here’s the text of Mr Harding’s letter – from the LBC website:
“Dear Mrs May,
“I am in France having a break having come here on the train all the way from Settle. I just read your letter to me and the rest of Britain wanting us all to unite behind the damp squib you call a deal. Unite? I laughed so much the mouthful of frogs legs I was eating ended up dancing all over the bald head of the bloke on the opposite table.
“Your party’s little civil war has divided this country irreparably. The last time this happened Cromwell discontinued the custom of kings wearing their heads on their shoulders.
“I had a mother who was of Irish descent, an English father who lies in a Dutch graveyard in the village where his Lancaster bomber fell in flames. I had a Polish stepfather who drove a tank for us in WW2 and I have two half Polish sisters and a half Polish brother who is married to a girl from Donegal.
“My two uncles of Irish descent fought for Britain in N Africa and in Burma.
“So far you have called us Citizens Of Nowhere and Queue Jumpers. You have now taken away our children and grandchildren’s freedom to travel, settle, live and work in mainland Europe.
“You have made this country a vicious and much diminished place. You as Home Sec sent a van round telling foreigners to go home. You said “ illegal” but that was bollocks as the legally here people of the Windrush generation soon discovered.
“Your party has sold off our railways, water, electricity, gas, telecoms, Royal Mail etc until all we have left is the NHS and that is lined up for the US to have as soon as Hannon and Hunt can arrange it.
“You have lied to the people of this country. You voted Remain yet changed your tune when the chance to grab the job of PM came. You should have sacked those lying bastards Gove and Bojo but daren’t because you haven’t the actual power.
“You have no answer to the British border on the island of Ireland nor do you know how the Gib border with Spain will work once we are out.
“Mrs May you have helped to divide this country to such an extent that families and friends are now no longer talking to each other, you have managed to negotiate a deal far worse than the one we had and all to keep together a party of millionaires, Eton Bullingdon boys, spivs and WI harridans. Your party conserves nothing. It has sold everything off in the name of the free market.
“You could have kept our industries going with investment and development – Germany managed it. But no – The Free Market won so Sunderland, Barnsley, Hamilton etc could all go to the devil.
“So Mrs May my answer to your plea for unity is firstly that it is ridiculous.
“48% of us will never forgive you for Brexit and secondly, of the 52% that voted for it many will not forgive you for not giving them what your lying comrades like Rees Mogg and Fox promised them.
“There are no unicorns, there is no £350 million extra for the NHS. The economy will tank and there will be less taxes to help out the poor. We have 350,000 homeless (not rough sleepers – homeless) in one of the richest countries on Earth and you are about to increase that number with your damn fool Brexit.
“The bald man has wiped the frogs legs of his head, I’ve bought him a glass of wine to say sorry; I’m typing this with one finger on my phone in France and I’m tired now and want to stop before my finger gets too tired to join the other one in a sailors salute to you and your squalid Brexit, your shabby xenophobia and Little Englander mentality.
“Two fingers to you and your unity from this proud citizen of nowhere. I and roughly half the country will never forgive you or your party.
