What Were The Tories Thinking? Episode 5,677 – 30p Lee Gets Promoted
10.
Making Lee Anderson Deputy Chairman of the Conservative Party is only going to end one way. As it happens, it will be one particularly fucking hilarious and catastrophic way, and we’re all here for it.

I'm trying desperately & failing miserably to analyse the logic behind Sunak's decision to appoint
Lee 30p Anderson as Deputy Chair.
Maybe he believes it will rally the "red wall" or more likely appease rabid RW & former Ukipers.
Either way he has,yet again,shown bad judgement.— Clare Hepworth OBE (@Hepworthclare) February 7, 2023

Today Rishi Sunak has been reshuffling the deckchairs on the Titanic. Then just for a laugh thrown in Lee Anderson as Deputy Chair, to give everyone a good "WTF?" moment before everything goes down.

Nice to see you've given up any pretence of being a serious political party I guess.

Hats off to you, no-one thought you could top making Liz Truss PM or giving Jacob Rees-Mogg any kind of position of power, but you've outdone yourselves here. Last days of Rome, make-your-horse-a-senator vibes.

The Radio 4 6 o’clock bulletin just called Lee Anderson “a rambunctious straight talker”. It’s an interesting circumlocution to avoid saying “arsehole”.

Suddenly, it all makes sense.
Is this because they've lost 40% of donations so they're hoping 30p Lee can fund the entire party on less than a £1? https://t.co/bpSEsYGrdo
