how do you get made redundant from the civil service? 37 years in harness and never heard of one - voluntary or early retirement perhaps but no compulsory redundancy.Civil Service. Made redundant twice and returned to the private sector.
Bit of a difference between a round of drinks to an 8k private box per game.I’m no Starmer fan / Labour voter but of course he should go in corporate for Arsenal. As long as there’s nothing expected back in terms of policies then who cares whether it’s free or not.
I won’t name them but an ex-pro came in to a pub near me and the gaffer gave him and his wife a free round.
Didn’t he think about paying for the private box himself? Obviously not.Starmer saying if I didn’t go to watch games in a private suite he wouldn’t be able to watch a game because of who he is. Because of who he is he’s decided to take money off vulnerable older people who’s gonna give them freebies. Has he not heard of a Firestick
Why would he when it’s been offeredDidn’t he think about paying for the private box himself? Obviously not.
Anyone surprised? No. Me neither.
This is it. He’s being transparent in what gifts he has received. One can only imagine what Johnson received and didn’t declare.Why would he when it’s been offered
Looks like he’s declared that then, cheers.He’s far from transparent.View attachment 132298

For the record, receiving gifts doesn’t sit well with me, but it’s not the massive gotcha that the triggered seem to think it is.
So why didn't security insist Sunak did the same when he watched Southampton.The other thing is he is a longtime ST holder at the Gooners so he pays to attend the games its just that security prefer the PM to be in a segregated area where they can do their jobs
Of course, but the issue is how that is funded.The other thing is he is a longtime ST holder at the Gooners so he pays to attend the games its just that security prefer the PM to be in a segregated area where they can do their jobs

All PMs accept gifts. I’ll be judging him on what he actually does, not what might happen or if he’s been in a box watching a game of football.I agree with you.
Johnson is a total sleaze ball and Starmer is just as bad, if not worse. He’s another total sleaze ball. Admit it and move on.
