Which has been happening for 13 years previously, yet we’re only talking about it now?

Funding has always played a role in politics. Rishi Sunak was flying around in a helicopter that was declared as a gift during the campaign!

I agree that it’s not right, but the right wing nutjobs can do better than trying to stir controversy over something that took place before Starmer was PM and something every politician does.

Didn’t cost me or you a penny.

They came into power saying that wouldn't happen with them in power because they held the moral ground over the Tories , that turned out well didn't it

Holidays and city season tickets and your friend will miss £300 winter fuel payment that is a piss take surely, £300 w, f payment for some pensioners who can barely live or put there heating on I’m all for but what your saying is something young families can’t do ie afford season tickets holidays etc

You've misread what I'm saying, he's a single pensioner and last year got £500 WFP as did Mrs H. He worked hard all his life but has a small company pension and state pension but he rents a flat from the local social housing provider. He doesn't get pension credit and the £500 reduction in his income with virtually no notice has meant he can't go on his annual holiday without sacrificing something else.

He paid his NI contributions from 1965 but like a lot of workers in those days private or company pensions were not as accessible as they are now.

His company pension from his later years takes him over the benefit level, he pays his bills including rent and his season ticket. I know what you're saying about some people can barely afford heating but hopefully those will get benefits. However some like my mate have limited resources to get some joy out of life due to restricted finances.

Do you really think someone who has worked all his life and paid tax and Insurance should only get an income of about £15k per year including a private pension and be deprived of the WFP? Some people who have never worked probably get not far off that and will retain their WFP.

Hope your getting help with your winter fuel bills Kaz compassion won’t pay the bills and anyone with poor health will really feel the cold this winter.
Nothing on non dom status by the time he gets round to it every non dom will have left the country with their cash same for tax dodgers.

It started on May 29 which is in the middle of GCSE exams which is exactly what Starmer said. It finished nearly a month after GCSEs but that was in the run up and immediately after the GE when the press would have been camped outside his house.
Another nothingburger especially as the £20k is what the property would have cost to rent on the open market whereas no money exchanged hands.

You’re telling me that, like the Arsenal game, and other things, Starmer didn’t make a penny?

Got fuck all on the Tories, has he. Needs to up his game.

I currently am living on 2 pensions total accumulated provision is £13.4k. I heat my home and last year paid nigh on a grand in utility bills alone. I run an aged (11 yo 90k mile ) car. I don't get a bus pass I don't get any state pension ( thats been moved a further 5 years away from me ) but I get by well enough. £300 would be a nice to have not a deal breaker.

Well let’s wait and see shall we.

Weeks into his top job and a huge own goal on the WFA that sees conference voting against him.

You say no tax payer money spent so nothing to see here but I’m afraid there is, Lord Ali has clearly bought and paid for political influence and access and is still doing so. The optics are terrible.

A pensioner can’t have the WFA but Starmer can justify £20k to rent a place that’s quiet for his child to study or £thousands on clothes and glasses etc and all whilst earning the sort of money 99% could only dream of.

Politically is naive at best and suicidal at worst as his enemies on the opposition benches and those within his own party smell blood and it seems with each passing day they find something else to beat him with.

Just revealed he took £20k off you know who again for accommodation during the election campaign for somewhere quiet for his son to study for his GCSE exams?

Seriously, WTF?

After taking his exams in the hood that is Surrey as a youngster Keir didn't want that for his son, the noise, sirens, knife crime etc... not to mention the continuous thumping of tools was very distracting.

Glad he bit back at Rigby just now, everything declared and nothing illegal and nothing at the tax payers expense.
couldn't care less he watches Arsenal in a better seat nowadays, got a fancy pair of glasses and accepted an offer for his kid to study away, makes total sense - so all a load of hot air and absolutely laughable after we've had 14 years of corruption and cronyism. Lets see what the desperate right wing can dig up tomorrow.
 
The RW media are going to carry on throwing shit for the next 5 years.

But he will be judged on how people feel about the country, public services etc. And that is what the RW are worried about.

Get used to the mud slinging about anything and everything.
