Toby Young.

Depends what you class as intelligent, if your definition includes being an arrogant, ignorant know it all, then he may be classed as a loss in some quarters however when even Tory politicians wanted him gone and felt the appointment was a bad mistake, who do class as "leftards" among Tories?

This guy built his reputation on being a nasty, conscience free "journalist", with little if any connection to the truth, managing to get fired from from just about every job he had, just the sort of person you want in any authority or decision making position

Very few of the official Tories are actually Tory (least of all Theresa the Appeaser). They've swallowed the same cultural Marxist bollocks that your leftard chums spout. Toby Young has a brain, has set up 4 schools from scratch, and has had a long and successful career as an opinionated columnist. Anyone who has been in the public eye in that capacity has a background to be mined for jokes and asides that aren't politically correct. Then comes the baying mob of leftist thugs....

When did the baying mob of leftist thugs come? Before or after the sparkly unicorns?

Four schools opened by someone who thinks disabled access is political correctness gone mad. He's not fit to open a cake shop let alone a school.

So the toxic Tories aren't "Tory" enough for you, just what sort of Tory would you like? I see McVey the merciless has been put in charge of Work and Pensions, akin to putting Count Dracula in charge of the blood transfusion service. Boris the buffoon continues in his job of making the country the laughing stock of Europe and indeed much of the world.

Would hardly describe any of the Tory heirarchy as Marxist, quite the reverse in fact, the only concessions ever made are when they feel threatened by the electorate, given free rein this shower would return the country to Victorian times or worse.

Around the time all those posh lads formed Momentum and Jezza bought his first suit and got the stylist in.

So you'd rather not have 4 fine schools that serve their diverse pupils so well? Typical trotty - idealogical purity over changing children's lives for the better. Some, like trotty, just virtue signal vacuously whereas people like Toby Young actually get off their arse and create opportunities for others and save inner city kids from dreadful sink schools.

If you think they are a 'baying mob' you should go to an EDL rally. But then you probably do don't you.

Theresa the Appeaser? What about Dav the Excluder who thinks disabled access is virtue signalling.

Dav is quite right. This is a Rightwing Website for Rightwing people. We'll have no equal opportunities here!

Oh dear is that the best you can do, if you have the slightest concern for others, even you must see the swathe of destruction this sorry gang are perpetrating across the country, the Tory's MO is covered by derision, division and deceit, I have difficulty recalling anything truly constructive started or completed by Tory governments throughout my life, all they care about is ensuring that their donors are thriving, because without wealthy donors the Tory party would simply collapse.

Today we have the unsavoury situation in that the so called investors and corporations want monopoly or better still be glad handed public sector work, with the tax payer paying the bills.

Labour aren't perfect, far from it, but much better for the people of this country than pandering to the wealthy at the expense of the rest, before you even say it, don't give me the bull about wealth creation, private sector is all about profit creation with little regard as to how that profit is achieved and most certainly are determined that profits do not filter anywhere beyond their own pockets.

Profit isn't a dirty word of itself, I applaud any business operating in a truly competitive market, treating customers and workers fairly, more power to those companies, no time at all for the weasels who use a monopoly position, very often granted by government, or any private company which takes tax handouts/subsidies, then pays out profits to alleged top execs and shareholders.

For sure someone will be along with the statement that the top wealthy % pay a major % of taxes, hardly surprising when they have most of the money, earned or otherwise.

You do understand what percentage means, don't you?

The 4 schools Toby Young co-founded admit children with disabilities and also teach a higher than average number of poor kids (i.e. eligible for free school meals). Even a chippy socialist like trotty should see the virtue in that.

Puddleduck, love, in what way do the 4 schools he founded prevent equal opportunities? They serve higher than average numbers of poor kids; they admit disabled kids just like other schools; they don't discriminate on the basis of religion, etc... but don't let that get in the way of the leftard drivel.
