Tories ACTIVATE their own version of Labour's Momentum

"Momentum, the grassroots organisation created to harness the energy of the movement surrounding Jeremy Corbyn, was credited as a force to be reckoned with over the election campaign. So much so that senior Tories claimed that they had a “lot to learn”from the organisation, despite spending the last two years insinuating that it was a dangerous cult to be feared, instead of copied.

Their Momentum equivalent, “Activate”, is aimed at 18-25 year olds, and claims that its purpose is to whip up enthusiasm for centre-right politics. It’s safe to say that the launch has not been as successful as the Tories would have hoped. Many have said that Activate sounds like a cut-price painkiller that promises a full recovery but actually does very little – a fitting tribute to Theresa May’s time in office so far."

Were I in their shoes and I'd resent any comparison with Momentum. As black and white as fascism and democracy.

Momentum is malignant.

So the first order of business for the Tory youth is the discussion of the gassing of chavs :rofl:

I look forward to the endless op-eds on how awful and vile the Conservative right are, just like we had with momentum (before the cons realised it actually works and tried to create their own version).
