• Sexual assault allegation 3/1
• Was racist to someone 5/1
• Plebgate 2 - got really aggressive with a police person or security and did a ‘do you know who I am?’ 1/10

Edit, could conceivably be all of the above at the same time couldn’t it

Yeah, a travesty. As long as they don’t take away my sweet sweet southern Dairy Milk. I don’t want to live in a world without Mint Crisps.

As an impartial UN security observer, Northern tayto (crisps) are nicer. Sorry.

However the range of tayto snacks available down here is incredible.

A senior Tory MP is understood to have clashed with security at the Conservative party conference, prompting a lockdown of part of the venue.

Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown was involved in what a doorman described as a “small misunderstanding” at the International Lounge in the conference centre.

Police said an attendee tried to enter the lounge without the relevant pass, leading security staff to intervene.

PA understands Clifton-Brown was trying to enter the room with a guest.

The “misunderstanding” led to a lockdown of some areas, including the press room, at the Manchester Central Convention Centre for around 20 minutes.

The Cotswolds MP told the PA news agency: “I’ve got nothing further to say about it. I don’t want to comment on it, really.”

A staff member guarding the door of the International Lounge said the incident was sparked by a disagreement.

“It was a small misunderstanding,” the man said.

Greater Manchester Police said in statement: “At around 1.45pm on Tuesday 1 October 2019, an attendee to the Conservative party conference attempted to enter the International Lounge area of the conference without the relevant pass.

“Security staff intervened and resolved the situation without any breach of security occurring.”

Handy reminder that Boris isn’t even the daftest floppy blond-haired (“hair”) twat in the Tory party.

@robdelaney The Lib Dems believe in plenty of things. They believe, fundamentally, in the EU, for one thing. Just like Labour used to before Corbyn came along. It’s not a crime to not trust Jeremy Corbyn. It’s eminently sensible. https://t.co/0GhqovvUc7

The EU runs in Swalwell’s veins, her belief in it total and absolute. Yes, Corbyn has offered us the chance to accomplish what we’ve said we want to achieve. But that ignores the fact that treacherous, perfidious Corbyn will betray the EU the first chance he gets. We know that on a deep, emotional level; the fact is, he is not one of us. He is an outsider. He ‘came along’. He has sullied the blood of the Labour party, and we cannot dirty ourselves by making any cause with him.

We are being very, very sensible right now.

Apt.
