A second young Tory activist has taken her life, alleging bullying and sexual assault in the Conservative Party.
Jade Smith timed a series of posthumous tweets (account now suspended) to coincide with Boris Johnson’s conference speech accusing the party of abuse.
One tweet read: “There’s a reason we don’t feel safe at conference” and in another – referring to Tory members – Jade talked about “creepy weird old men”:
The tragic young woman’s death comes after another young Tory activist Elliott Johnson was driven to suicide by bullying and abuse in the Tory Party:
Tory Bully: Isolate. Inebriate. Penetrate.

Reblogged this on Ramblings of a 50+ Female and commented:
So very sad to hear of the suicides. Men, stop, just stop.

Sadly the PM has failed to do anything to combat this… I wonder why? The current Tory Party is really the Nasty Party and along with the Really Nasty party (Nigel Farage I am talking about your party) they represent a minority of people who are generally only truly supportive of the powerful and rich, who we all know are mainly men. As Dominic Cummings is on record as saying, most Tories don’t give a damn about poor people or the NHS. No coincidence that the NHS, Europe’s biggest employer is mainly staffed by women and many of them are poorly paid. One might also argue that the Tories are the Racist Party based on Johnson’s past comments and lies about the EU.

Ugh that’s horrific but I’m so not surprised that rape and sexual abuse are rife in the Tory Party.
It’s so sad that these young women were driven to suicide.
Please, if you’re suffering from an abusive or toxic situation, reach out to abuse survivors networks, and get away from the abusive environment. And contact a helpline if you feel suicidal.

Can you imagine what the media would be doing now if Labour were accused of this sort of thing.
It would be wall to wall coverage up to the next election.
