Keir Starmer

[blueinsa]

Over £100k in freebies.

Not bad for the son of a toolmaker eh?

It might not be a bad thing him being at a game or gig most weekends tbh. Imagine the damage that could be done to peoples lives if him and his Tory Chancellor actually spent that time thinking what difficult decisions they could make next?

Surely a conflict of interest when he’s eating his prawn sandwiches in the box at emirates and the government are meant to be setting up an IC to govern football.

Though this went against everything he stood for and it was the tories fleecing us??

It’s a fair challenge. Even without any evidence of any foul play it’s not a good look.

 

[tommybooth]

Massive slug.

 

[metalblue]

Who's leaking to the press about his freebies. Someone within his party, or a deliberate act to distract from the pensioners debacle.

If he's true to his word about being happy being unpopular whilst he gets on with his job Starmer could well be feeding the beast himself.

Good question. Apparently he was warned when in opposition that his liking of a freebie was a problem. He choose to ignore that advice.

So someone is briefing against him. I suspect the list of suspects is quite long.

He was brought up on Beef dripping and sugar sandwiches, can't see him touching Prawns tbh.

How does the pm accepting a gift make the government corrupt and dishonest ?

Sleaze. The whiff coming off this government even after a couple of months is putrid.

 

[waspish]

Don't care! what I hate from all MP's is the hypocrisy of them!

This needs to be pluralised. I don't believe that with the highly paid army of apparatchiks surrounding him there would ever be an 'oversight' and fail to register a gift. It's not criminally dishonest but when yer see how the Labour Gov is filling the so-called black financial hole left by those other ne'er-do-wells it's certainly questionable.

 

[Brewster's millions]

Another sleaze story on him today, this time in the FT.

Turns out he didn’t disclose his 16k clothing and glasses bung correctly, which - given how easy the rules are to interpret - suggests an attempt to obscure the details of the donation.

This of course follows on from him failing to declare the donation of clothing to his wife, another issue around which the rules are very clear.

Strange that a trained lawyer can’t interpret simple rules and adhere to them in an accurate and timely manner.

But can't lawyers explain that black is white, white is black and sky blue isn't a colour? The problem with the 'rules' is that it's the same bloody scoundrels who are making up the rules, and if they ever get caught out it's always 'an oversight'! Makes me wonder why they ever have any rules at all. Perhaps it's just to give the electorate the notion that propriety exists at Westminster!
