A short thread on Tory rotter Cecil Parkinson, illustrating why the Conservative Party must be *destroyed* to save the country… (pic shows him with Mrs Fascister in 1983). 😖✊🇪🇺🇻🇳 #ToriesOut #cad #ToriesLie #COVID19 #Parkinson #rotter #ToryShambles
Parkinson was a chartered accountant, and made a pile of money from establishing Parkinson-Hart Securities in 1961. He then entered Parliament in 1970; a normal career path for a Tory obsessed with money & power… 🙄 #ToriesOut #greed #gross 🇪🇺🇻🇳
As is extremely well-known, Parkinson had an affair with Sara Keays, his secretary in Parliament. He resigned his Cabinet post in October 1983, when news of her pregnancy became public. 😐✊🇻🇳🇪🇺 #ToriesOut #hypocrites #liars #ToryShambles
Significantly, Thatcher had known for months: Parkinson resigned not because he had done something wrong, but because he had been found out by the press… 😠✊🇻🇳🇪🇺 #ToriesOut #crooks #liars #Parkinson #Sun #Thatcher
I have zero interest in policing the bedroom, and his fornicatory exertions are irrelevant to the rest of the world… EXCEPT when innocents get hurt… 😠 #ToriesOut #rotter #hypocrisy #liar
This is where Parkinson’s behaviour was truly atrocious: Sara bore the child, named Flora, and he never ONCE went to see her. Shockingly, he went to his grave never having met his daughter. 😧 #rotter #ToriesOut #cad #appalling
Even when young Flora had major surgery to remove a brain tumour at just 4 yrs old, her father did not visit. He did not even send her birthday cards. 😳 #ToriesOut #rotter #Parkinson #awful
Parkinson paid child maintenance, but only because a court forced him to. Most unpleasantly, in his will he left nothing for Flora, despite being a wealthy man. [pic shows him with long-suffering wife, Anne] 😖✊🇻🇳🇪🇺 #ToriesOut #crooks #liars #ReleaseTheRussiaReport
Interviewed in The Mirror in 2017, this is what Sara Keays had to say about Flora being left out of Parkinson’s will:

#heartbreaking #ToriesOut #rotter
In the same interview, we learned something new about Parkinson’s devout love of money… This doesn’t sound awfully legal… 😖✊🇻🇳🇪🇺 #crooks #liars #ToriesOut
Despite being a truly awful individual who HAD A DAUGHTER WHOM HE NEVER ONCE VISITED, Parkinson remained a Tory favourite. Thatcher brought him back into the Cabinet in 1987… 😖 #gross #ToriesOut #crooks
Most appallingly, he was sent to the House of Lords in 1992. This truly dreadful person was rewarded with the right to take part in deciding on the laws of this country for life… That’s not how things should work… 😠✊🇻🇳🇪🇺 #ToriesOut #ffs #DemocracyPlease
Further demonstrating that being a horrible person with no sense of responsibility is emphatically NOT an obstacle to becoming a top Tory, William Hague made Parkinson Chairman of the party in 1997… 😖✊🇻🇳🇪🇺 #gross #revolting #liars #ToriesOut #ToriesKill
We shouldn’t really need it, but this is further evidence that ethics are absent in the Tory party, and especially so under the crooked Boris Johnson. 😖✊🇻🇳🇪🇺 #ToriesOut #gross #JohnsonMustGo
In order to save the country, our only option is therefore to destroy the Tory party at the polls. Please remember Parkinson’s horrible character when you’re next in a polling booth. 😖✊🇻🇳 #ToriesOut #resist #ToryShambles #liars
