Is any of the hardware British? Aston owned by Ford with Mercedes. Hawks made by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited, eurofighter sorry typhoon, the Lockheed martin f35. Or does this show our ability to work with partners to deliver world class projects.

Apparently illegal to use an image of the monarch on electioneering material (hard to believe, isn't it?). So that's why it's gone.

The king has just been going through some cherished memories of KLF videos and channelling Tammy.

What! They cancelled Brian?

Alongside the obviously awful standard of the design by the work experience kid, the claims being made have more than a whiff of the tractor production figures at the fag end of communism.

Nice to see the level of professionalism on display though. They failed to do the requisite checks on legal use of image rights, that wouldn't have made it past a sub-ed on a regional newspaper.

That says it all

Nah, Ford sold ages ago. Private equity something or other these days from memory.

I kind of expect political stuff to be economical with the truth,  but the sheer level of amateurish incompetence is stunning, even after all these years.

Given how much these charlatans and their friends in the press have blurred the lines between editorial content and marketing/propaganda over recent years, I'm not remotely surprised they no longer know where those legal boundries are.

Whats incredible is that they're publishing (because thats what it is) shit like that without running it past any kind of legal tells you everything you need to know about the clown show presently running Tory central office

Nah… publish and quietly retract. They know the rules, and they no that transgressing them in this way will have bugger all come back on them. It’s social media anyway, there’s no need to have it up more than a day to two. It’s not like they’ve put it up on billboards. The digital space is dirty… and you can be sure they’ll take full advantage of that this year.

I think it's often the case they know exactly what they were doing with that design - it does its job, then it's pulled.

It's often simply about reach and not persistence.

Either way that's not an endorsement - political parties are all pretty terrible at this sort of thing.

I mean the whole drone shots over Britain and NHS workers in portrait slo-mo has become totally grating.

'For the many not the few' was the absolute best and simplest campaign.  (But then again I couldn't believe Get Brexit Done was so successful either.)

Back to the drawing board.

They're already using 'Back to square one with Labour ' and wondering why the public seem quite enthusiastic about that.

After all, when you have people prepared to go back to a warzone to access basic services, square one is starting to look decent.

What a shameful joke.

Rishi’s latest Tech Bro interview photoshoot has just caused the head of the Adidas marketing department to head out for a walk, carrying a bottle of whisky and a service revolver…

C710B1FA-1A5F-40FA-903F-ECCA616F14C5

Adidas Sambas were this year’s coolest shoes – until Rishi Sunak got a pair

I mean, like a lot of middle-aged blokes, I was as surprised as anyone to discover that my trainer choices are now fashionable again, but we’ve all been wearing them since we were 18.

Rishi pairing his glowing white, box fresh pair with a crisp white shirt and his weird, 2 sizes too small trousers, because he read that what da kidz are wearing, is just tragic. I wonder what he thinks he looks like?

Saudi Arabia and Geely are the other two owners.

Its another ‘Mini/MG’ use the heritage for the marketing but 100% non uk owners.

I suppose the argument is that’s the nature of business.

I think you should be safe with your Gola’s

These are the official pictures that have been put out. Clearly he thinks he looks cool as ****!

Dear lord!

Obviously there’s nobody to take him to one side and have a quiet word or Mrs Sunak delivering a line that I’m sure most of us would get from our significant others….  ‘and you’re going to do the interview dressed like that, are you?’

Remember when Boris took his flight in a Eurofighter? Walking out to the plane clearly thinking he was a Top Gun extra but he actually looked like a sack of shit wrapped in a flight suit.
Theresa May doing her ill-advised dancing thing on stage at the Tory Party Conference.
The "power stance" thing they all adopted a few years ago.

I'm convinced that it's not actually serious - somewhere there must be a group of advisors absolutely pissing themselves laughing every time. They cannot genuinely believe that the "advice" they're giving is good, it must all be one great big long-running joke to see how far they can take it...?

"...and I told him to wear Adidas trainers cos he'd look cool and...HE FELL FOR IT! Looked like a right balloon!"
"that's nothing mate, I told Theresa May she should do a little boogie and she thought she was in a ****ing Abba musical, oh how we laughed!"

You'd think they'd try to not make him look tiny. That chair just makes him look so small (I'm 5'5") surely you just find one that's a bit smaller.

In other news, the Guardian are reporting that Rishi is getting pressure off the wife to go for an early election as she fancies leaving for California ASAP and can’t see the point of hanging around til the autumn

Let's not focus on the fact that he is a bit short, can we not ridicule him for being a complete weapons grade ****?

I'm not ridiculing him for being short it was more a commentary on the optics generated by the photograph and the sub conscious imagery of power or lack of. You want a leader that fills the chair and so dominates the situation as opposed to someone who can barely reach the floor.

Are those shoes tied differently in each photo? The first one looks like they are tied the way they come out of the box?

I don't believe he saw those shoes until 2 minutes before the interview..

So after days of Sunak and Co defending Willy Wragg and insisting he’s done nothing wrong, because sending random strangers photos of your nads and the phone numbers of MPs is apparently perfectly normal, the inevitable…

William Wragg resigns Tory whip after divulging MPs’ phone numbers

How very Johnsonesque

I see that Rwanda Air declined to fly any asylum seekers to Rwanda due to concerns that...it might damage their brand!

You really couldn't make this up.

There's also a picture on the BBC website of sunak and Paul Kagame on steps of Downing Street; lil rish! is looking up at Kagame - who is tall - with a look of admiration and hero worship on his little face.

It portrays anything but statesmanship - pathetic.

The  Lil fella has been silent on the issue himself, which chimes with his standard level of weakness and cowardice. Jeremy Hunt came out the day after and said that Willy Wragg was ‘very courageous’ in speaking out about what had happened. Other ministers have parroted the same line, so it’s safe to assume this was briefed from number ten.

Sunak is now so weak that he can’t even withdraw the whip from someone who’s been massively compromised having been sending out photos of his cobblers to random strangers

A Fish Called Rhonda

It'd work for Tory MPs too, you just spell it phish and say that if they send intimate pics they can come back to your plaice.

Meanwhile, after Rishi meeting his Rwandan counterpart to recreate the cover of Twins with Danny Devito and Arnie, it’s been revealed that the Rwandan government has sold off all the flats that were  built to house asylum seekers from the UK

They’re clearly not expecting anyone anytime soon then?

Probably to a Tory chum who will rent them to the government at 10x market rate

Check out the foaming-at-the-mouth right wing headbanger news source of your choice - The Mail, Express, Telegraph, GB News etc.

They’re all (somewhat predictably) absolutely apoplectic. Most of us cottoned on to the fact that the Rwandan government were extracting the urine (and half a billion quid) quite some time ago, but it seems the nutters have only just realised and they’re not happy. 😂

So that you don’t have to click on any of those links, even the Bracknell News have covered it.

Suella Braverman disappointed that Rwanda properties earmarked for migrants are sold
