The New Prime Minister’s Highly Confidential WhatsApp Group
Members Only, Issue 1622
PM's WhatsApp Group
We’ve got them on the ropes, team! The Angela Rayner scandal is blowing Labour out of the water! Their lead is only now 19%.
Penny Mordaunt
At this rate they’ll be lucky to win 497 seats. #PM4PM #OrLeaderOfOpposition
No, CapitalGainsTaxGate as I call it is the end for Labour. Unless something goes badly wrong.
Mark Menzies
Hello!
Who are you?
Mark Menzies
I’m one of your MPs. I used to be PPS to the Minister of State for International Development.
James Forsyth
Oh yes, I recognise you. You had to resign following allegations that you paid a Brazilian male escort for sex.
James Forsyth
Still, that was back in 2014. All forgotten now.
So, how are things, Mark?
Mark Menzies
I’m in a room with some bad men.
Tell me about it!
Mark Menzies
No, seriously. I desperately need some money.
Jeremy Hunt
Tell me about it!
Mark Menzies
I need you to give me lots of money! NOW! It’s for medical expenses or something plausible like that.
James Forsyth
The optics on this are off the scale, boss.
What? Bigger than FailingToDeclarePrinciple- ResidenceInStockportGate?
James Forsyth
We’re going to have to take the whip away.
Oliver Dowden
As the Brazilian escort might have said!
