Tory MPs are 'dividing themselves into gangs and hunting each other', says Andrew MarrAndrew Marr has said Conservative MPs are 'dividing themselves into gangs and going hunting for each other' as the Tory leadership contest continues. Cool. A bit like the Hunger Games, except not one of them is hungry, unless it’s for power? That at least makes a change from the gangs of activists at the BBC. The natives are restless, conquer and divide is the order of the day. Politics is a dirty business as Julias Caesar found out to his cost! 🌐
