It Isn't Heresy When Nice People Do It

Not all Remoaners are citizens of nowhere after all, it appears. The former attorney general Dominic Grieve, who is among the Conservatives' most prominent advocates of the Euro-wog yoke, has lost a vote of confidence held by his local party. With characteristic sublimity, the Conservative association in Beaconsfield favoured the judgement of a pantomime producer and former regional organiser for the Vote Leave fraudsters, who stood on behalf of the Farage Falange two years ago. Despite these glittering democratic credentials, it remains unclear whether Grieve will have to face the sort of Stalinist persecution which has driven the media to such distraction over the Labour Party. The former Imperial Haystack was quick to clarify that Grieve was almost certainly not a traitor, and the sniggering schoolboy in charge of the London Evening Osborne recommended kicking the local party out of the party instead. The Conservative Party is a broad church after all; and besides his stint as attorney general Grieve has also served on the intelligence and security committee, doubtless without taking the slightest note of any closeted skeletons or buried bodies.
