An epic whinge from Vice’s Bella Mackie after reading that I’m a Celeb’s Toff has landed a column with Sunday Times Style. Bella reckons Toff is too privileged to deserve her new platform:
I’m in a bad mood so maybe I’m being unfair, but the rise of “Toff” is really irking me. Sure, she’s a nice girl. But I thought the “likeable, charming posh Tory” guise went out with Boris Johnson. It’s a weird and dated delusion. pic.twitter.com/1fZDBs9ZQm

“Oh she’s so funny and eccentric” is not a match for the fact that she’s loaded, churning out sponsored content as if her life depended on it, and is a fan of JACOB REES-MOGG. He thinks abortion is wrong evens in case of rape btw. Oh but she’s so charming!

No they wouldn’t. “She’s that charming.” No. No she’s not. Corbyn, whatever you think of him, has spent his whole life fighting for those he thinks are fucked by inequality. She’s literally called TOFF. pic.twitter.com/gFE6fL9Lju

One more thing then I’ll stop. Maybe there are better people to give a column in a widely read (and great fun) magazine than this (yes I know she’s charming) girl pic.twitter.com/ejpIdM5BEg

That would be Bella Mackie, who made it in journalism after getting a job at the Guardian, where her father Alan Rusbridger was the editor. In terms of privilege and media careers not sure Bella has a leg to stand on. Toff has probably had to work harder to get a column than Bella did to get a job at the Guardian…
Great to meet @ToffTalks this morning in Parliament and to tell her about some of my plans for @Conservatives renewal and youth. Look forward to catching up again soon! pic.twitter.com/AH2FzbQmUQ

Not sure Tory Toffs was the image they were going for in the reshuffle…

Georgia Toffolo won ITV’s I’m a Celebrity last night. She is a sworn Tory and politics fan; here she is discussing the Conservatives on BBC’s This Week. Guido is beginning to think it was a mistake not to hire her as an intern…
A very special guest for Chelsea and Fulham MP Greg Hands on the Commons terrace: his constituent Georgia Toffolo, AKA Toff from reality TV show Made in Chelsea. More commonly found in the MailOnline sidebar, Theresa May fan Toff is a politics enthusiast who when asked a few years ago how she would vote replied: “Tory. Definitely”. Pictured above left wearing traditional German dress, which will no doubt appeal to Herr Hands…
