Oliver Downen isn’t happy he has got wind of a Lib/Lab pact for the upcoming council elections.

Boris Johnson is trying to focus minds on bins, potholes and council tax as the Tories enter the final days before the local elections with a new scandal adding to partygate.

Conservative MP Neil Parish announced his resignation on Saturday as he admitted twice watching pornography in the House of Commons.

The fresh embarrassment came as activists canvas for votes for a Tory party led by a Prime Minister fined by police for breaching his own coronavirus laws.

Polls in 200 local authorities across Britain open on Thursday, in a chance for voters to register their disapproval, or their support.

Unfair

Ignoring all that Oliver Dowden wrote to Sir Keir Starmer concerned about what he thinks is an unfair plot.

Dowden tweeted the letter and wrote: “The secret Labour/Lib Dem elections pact has been revealed. Read my letter and the questions that Sir Keir Starmer must answer.”

Reactions

Well a LOT of people were keen to point out the Tories pact with the DUP and a £1.5 billion bung, the time Farage and Boris Johnson bumped into each other in a restaurant and who can forget the Liberal Democrats and Conservative coalition?

Right now, electoral pacts are completely legal. Are Dowden’s comments a sign that the Tories are going to use their newfound power over the Electoral Commission to outlaw them? pic.twitter.com/1yUo81uoR0

If only we had a fair voting system Mr Dowden there would be no need for this, but your corrupt party won’t deliver that because it hates democracy https://t.co/vzYAzmIJv3

The Conservative party’s suicide pact with Johnson, Farage, UKIP, Rees-Mogg, the ERG, Putin’s Oligarchs, Patel, Dorries, Arron Banks, Cummings, Erdogan, Modi, and a very long list of other unsavoury characters, versus a pact between Labour and Lib Dems?

Dowden is upset! https://t.co/D6jCecPqki

Conveniently ignoring the Conservatives pact with UKIP not to take their votes and the £1 billion bung to the DUP. https://t.co/MLCrna6oNF

You're not forgetting the 'agreement' between Johnson and Farage at the 2019 election are you?
You know, the one where Farage withdrew 317 candidates, in Tory areas, so as not to split the pro brexit vote, and so influence democracy….https://t.co/3DVy1JVxbQ
