Of course you are aware of The Powell Memo?

I must stop referring to the #conservativemanifesto. They don't have policies, so they can't have a manifesto. Does anyone know the collective noun for a stream of untruths?
Tory philosophy is like wheel-clamping ambulances because there's a profit to be made. #CONservativemanifesto
Quick question for proper journalists?
When the first half of the #conservativemanifesto is lies about Jeremy Corbyn, and the second half of the #conservativemanifesto is lies about what Tories plan to do with our money, what should a proper journalist do?
Quick question for proper journalists:
When Tories say, in their #conservativemanifesto, 'we are the only party that understands the balance and symmetry at the heart of the UK economy,' do they mean that the debt of the many is in perfect symmetry with the wealth of the few?
Quick question for proper journalists:
When Boris Johnson says, in the introduction to the #CONservativemanifesto, that he's 'very proud of the achievements of this government in its first one hundred days,' would it be impertinent to ask what achievements he means specifically?
Quick question for proper journalists:
When the very first bullet point (50,000 extra nurses) under the heading 'Boris Johnson's Guarantee' at the start of the #CONservativemanifesto is shown to be a lie, what should your next question be?
Quick question for proper journalists:
When the first two sentences of the #CONservativemanifesto compare the country to 'a lion trapped in a cage,' and 'some super-green supercar blocked in the traffic' (I kid you not), should we take anything else it says seriously?
Quick question for proper journalists:
The #CONservativemanifesto starts with a section called 'My Guarantee,' but how watertight is a Johnson guarantee? Is it leaky watertight? Sinking watertight? Drowning watertight?
Quick question for proper journalists:
How many of the 40, no 20, no 6 new hospitals announced in the #CONservativemanifesto are actually already hospitals?
Quick question for proper journalists:
How much of the £33.9 billion boost for the NHS announced in the #CONservativemanifesto is already part of their budget?
Quick question for proper journalists:
How many of the 20,000 new police officers announced in the #CONservativemanifesto are already employed as police officers?
The Tories announced a £34 billion spending boost for the NHS, because it sounds good and they know they won't have to account for it because the MSM is on their side. #CONservativemanifesto
The #conservativemanifesto is like going to the supermarket and being charged double for half the shopping.
The #conservativemanifesto is like taking your car in for a service, finding they've driven and crashed it but want to charge you anyway.
The #conservativemanifesto is like getting home to find your house has been robbed and the burglar is sat on your sofa trying to sell you house insurance.
Nicky Morgan MP is being sent out on GMTV, R4 Today etc to defend the indefensible #CONservativemanifesto even though she is not standing in the election. They don't want to damage senior Tories by association with this garbage manifesto.
Tory manifesto pledges an extra 50,000 nurses. Turns out 19,000 of them are existing nurses they hope to persuade NOT to leave the profession. I didn't make that up!
They signed off on this! They think we're so dumb, they thought we wouldn't notice...
#CONservativemanifesto
The #conservativemanifesto is like turning up at A&E to find the man who assaulted you with a bandage.
Got to admit, I like #ConservativeManifesto pledge to spend £350m on cycle routes, just worry that, on money promised, that's 5x as important as increasing community care for people with disabilities & 4x as important as improving employment outcomes for young people. #Priorities
The PMs 2020 Vision. Measures to help Eddisbury residents. #ConservativeManifesto #GE2019
Particularly good news for seriously ill patients and @NHS staff at Leighton Hospital. #ConservativeManifesto
Great news for Eddisbury drivers! #ConservativeManifesto
This is weak, but better than nothing: "We will consult on the earliest date we can phase out the sale of new conventional petrol and diesel cars, while minimising the impact on drivers and businesses" #ConservativeManifesto twitter.com/adamcorlett/status/11841...
Boris Johnochio doing a great job this afternoon, knocking out the #ConservativeManifesto , all hot and steaming in Birmingham

Was getting ready to go out again, got side tracked by #ConservativeManifesto
For every £1.00 Tory's are spending @UKLabour is spending £28.00 (h/t @EdConwaySky )
Of course they have to spend more, to get us out of the mess of austerity.
Tory launch full of attacks on Labour
There are two broken promises just in the intro blurb to the laughable #ConservativeManifesto. Out of the EU no later than Jan 2020 (there won't be time in Parliament), and 'creating more GP appointments' - how, considering there are less GPs despite your pledge for 5,000 more?
For those who don't want to read the #ConservativeManifesto in full, here's the gist of it:
"We promise to give you back some of the things we took away from you in the last 10 years in return for letting us push through a no-deal Brexit that will cripple economy ..."
#ConservativeManifesto available in BSL yet?!
not that I want to know what your policies are #notgotmyvote
Fun recipe for civil disobedience on an epic scale #ConservativeManifesto drillordrop.com/2017/05/18/conservatives...
