I still don’t understand how honest Bob Jenrick avoided jail for this

Steal £45 quid: instant dismissal
Steal £4,500: the above but police get involved

I often find myself asking this with the Tories, they still reference keeping Corbyn out as some kind of great victory for the whole country while they’ve had various leaders cock things up repeatedly, then there was when they tried to have a go at Starmer for owning a donkey sanctuary which went really well and now this.

Anyone falling for it by now either is actually trying to fall for it or just plain stupid.

That’s the trouble. There are loads of them.

How do we get new ideas to the top? How do we get new blood in? Why don’t we have more options?

We need the country to be EFFICIENT, that’s our main trouble. It’s been taken advantage of for so long in so many ways by all sides that it’s become the norm. Once money is spent correctly there will be more to spread around to make this country colourful and diverse. Instead we’re heading to a place where nothing is allowed and no one has any outlets so we all work/pay in and die before we get anything out.

How do I get elected?

Poor old Canary Wharf getting the levelling up funding it so badly needs…:thinking:

Imagine if a Labour Minister did this. It would be wall to wall coverage of a national crisis

Fuck her and fuck the right wing media barons.

Not even the most cabbage brained hate filled pensioner could look at that and think…‘yeah…we’ve never had it so good actually’.

Why? We’ve fully reached the US point where “making others poorer” and “holding them down” is just as good as “making me richer” and “pushing me up”

just look at that LBC caller the other day where some awful tory bint was complaining about her disabled sister getting free handouts when honest working people get nothing

Had this recently with my wife’s circle of friends, they spent the last few years slagging off one of her friends for being a scrounger, council house, not working, big tv, single parent troups etc,

Then one of them that has turned more and more tory turned up the other day having just had a second child in a new family fun wagon (vw transporter) that had been put through her husbands Carpentry business, and fails to see the irony.

For some reason I always think that it doesn’t matter how high he’s climbed in his political career and how many contracts he keeps getting his billionaire wife, she still looks at him with distain and annoyances over the dinner table and belittles him to her friends at parties.

Dunno, she might be as fickle and deluded as he is but she definitely sits on her phone in bed, puts it down, turns her back to him and turns off the light.
He hopes every night but he still has to sneak to the bathroom once he thinks she’s asleep.
