Tory strategist Clementine Carruthers said ‘Rishi is a modern Tory. His dream is to use public money to weaponize the comments section of the right-wing tabloids.

Carruthers tapped her nose, then beamed ‘The Conservatives are bringing back the death penalty but mainly for black people in police custody. They don’t have to be guilty. It’s not so much a national scandal as a policy goal.’
