The Labour Government

[Vic]

Some weeks ago when the Angela Rayner witch hunt was on I commented that certain aspects of her behaviour did not make for good optics when perhaps she could have been taking a slightly lower profile. I see today she has been getting her bodyguards to move boxes from her partner's property into her new Hove property. Given her profile is she so politically thick that she does not think that this would be picked up on, would look really bad and just add fuel to the fire that she is now too entitled

Oh no. Not moving boxes...

Next she'll be putting flowers in window boxes.

Then deadheading the flowers.

Rayner in decapitation shock....

Mad.

If she left them sat around doing nothing it would be ''Rayner wastes taxpayers money by giving bodyguards a life of ease '' headline.


Get it yet ?

It's all relative, isn't it?

With the ruling Conservatives on their fourth leader in as many years, and with the three most recently-departed — Theresa May, Boris Johnson and Liz Truss — visibly cashing in on the lucrative international speaking circuit for ex-prime ministers, some are raising questions about the mounting cost to U.K. taxpayers.

Because every time an ex-prime minister travels abroad — even to earn themselves a six-figure sum for speaking at an obscure business conference — U.K. taxpayers are likely picking up the security tab.

All the more reason why deputy PMs, who never actually had any responsibility, shouldn’t be using protection officers to help people move house.

Particularly if they’re a tax dodger and fiddle the exchequer out of forty grand.

She seems quite happy using public services, but not quite so keen to pay for them.

Wasn't she housing minister?

Any thoughts on Mone?

I'm sure it is not within the remit of bodyguards to act as removal men for her boyfriend. Clearly if they can be away from her for periods of time they are not really needed. Got it?

She was housing minister - a housing minister who fiddled her housing taxes.

Nobody on here has even thought of defending Mone, so why you’re bringing that up in a discussion about Angela Rayner is unclear.

Doesn't the housing minister have resposibility then?

I wasn't suggesting anyone had defended Mone. But neither have the most vociferous of critics of Rayner attacked Mone either. I wonder why that could be?

Are you suggesting that all ministers in charge of secondary departments for a little over 12 months need round the clock armed guards, who can also handily double up as removal men (and women)?

Strange if you do. Also strange that you’re demanding people to post about Mone, almost as if they can’t comment on the Labour government in the Labour government thread if you don’t.

You’re a bit of a needy lefty aren’t you?

No mention of time or which department. Just a swinging statement from Brewster Knows Best. But it's Rayner you're on about so we know you can't stand her.

I didn't at any stage mention security-you did. Although with haters like you around she probably does need some security.
No "demanding" from me-you mentioned that.
Not a lefty either-you mentioned that.

Nice to see you resorting to slurs though. Keep it up.

While there are people using hate speech against Rayner, she'll need protection.

Being a RWNJ is at a cost to the taxpayer.

Or maybe, Rayner didn't 'get' her bodyguards to shift the stuff. Maybe they just wanted to help and were bored shitless and decided to lend a hand?

Don't be so sensible!! There's a story for the RW nutters, so milk it.

He can't stand anyone affiliated to Labour!

Like you say, he was conspicous by his absence when it came to discussing the news about Mone. He says he hasn't defended her but I can't see where he's criticised her either. Rayner did wrong and had to go but when it comes to levels, £122 million trumps £40,000 every day of the fucking week.

Oh the irony.

I suppose that Angela Rayner calling people scum, just because they happen to be from an opposing party, isn’t hate speech at all, and only serves to lower the tensions across the political debate?

Even you’re not that daft Victor. Close, but not quite.

So in your book, Scum= Hate speech? Take her to the tower we hear you say.

She apologised for the comment made in 2021( now we know you're deperate trawling up stuff from then). She made the comment about Johnson being racist, homophobic and mysoginistic. Pretty close to the truth I would say.

Whilst everyones getting riled up about Flags, the PM is sorting out a huge trade deal with India.

Starmer will meet with Narendra Modi to promote the bilateral trade deal signed by the two nations, which is said to be worth £4.8 billion to the UK's economy each year.

So it's not a new deal or anything then. It's just promoting trade which may have happened between the two countries anyway - with or without Starmer's intervention. Two countries doing trade between each other - whatever next ?

It’s a landmark deal with significant implications, it’s our biggest trade deal since leaving the EU.

Will boost our GDP by 4.8 billion and expect around 2,200 new jobs in the uk mainly for aerospace, technology, and manufacturing along with a host of other benefits .

But yeh, let’s be negative about anything Labour does.

So silly, promoting Britain when the loudest mouths want to shut it down.
