Jonathan Reynolds and two staffers went to Glastonbury as guests of YouTube. The next day, Labour abandoned its policy of increasing the digital service tax from two per cent to 10 per cent. Steve Reed, who is now the Environment Secretary, took £1,786 from the water polluters in the form of a football match ticket and what must have been rather generous hospitality. And on, and on, and on it goes.
Keir Starmer has now joined several of his underlings who had already used their children as human shields. Starmer's son is both why he needs a private box at Arsenal, paid for by those on the regulation of whom the Government is about to decide, and why he needed to accept what has been registered as £20,437.28 to put him up for 45 days in an £18 million penthouse in Covent Garden. £454.17 per night? Rubbish. If you were going to put a monetary value on that, then you would not get much, if any, change out of five times what Starmer has registered.
Meanwhile, where does he think that every other 16-year-old was revising for his or her GCSES? Starmer's family home was never besieged by the media. Every day for four years, that was Jeremy Corbyn's. And to whom did Little Starmer's bolthole belong? Suspend your disbelief, but it was Lord "It's That Man Again" Alli. Big Starmer also filmed his 2021 Christmas broadcast there in breach of the lockdown that he took that opportunity to praise, filmed his tribute to the late Queen there, and watched this year's General Election results there. The flat of the unrelated man who buys his and his wife's clothes.
On the Government's own figures, benefit fraud is only £1.2 billion, with £1.4 billion overpaid due to error. The true figures may be even lower. Yet the people who live as set out above are going to hound the sick and disabled to the grave, in some cases from suicide, in pursuit of an imaginary epidemic of these problems, all while keeping the two-child benefit cap and while taking away the Winter Fuel Payment from almost all pensioners, growing numbers of whom are therefore also suicidal. Of course a Government cannot be bound by resolutions of its party conference. Yet this one would benefit, so to speak, from being so. But as they gush their congratulations, MPs who failed to vote to save the universal Winter Fuel Payment can wind their necks in. And the unions need to ask what we got for funding the Labour Party, not least in view of how much Lord Alli and others got for far less money.
When is the weekly magazine being published? Oh my god we can’t stop laughing!
ReplyDeleteWe are waiting to hear whether Michael Gove will be keeping on Damian Thompson. If not, then we are going to make a point of saying that we had not offered him alternative employment.
