Disgraced Tory Banker donates £500k to the Con Party after Boris gives him a seat in the House of Lords . Peter Cruddas, now Baron Cruddas,

Douglas, I voted tory as they were the only party that said they would get us out of the EU. In the following election there was not much choice as who to vote for. I agree with Danny on gulliver in that he never backs anything up as I have said before. Ask him a question and he ignores it. I do hope you never have cause to disagree with him or he will turn on you in a second and then you will have been radicalised like everyone else on here. I don't support any rulers and have voted for other parties in the past. Give me some decent opposition and I may do again. I vote for the party I think will be best for me, my family and the country IMO. Ask me something and I try to give an honest answer.
