Specsavers 2 for the price of one. Mine are not a simple prescription but with the best titanium frames plus thin wide view varifocals with Zeiss lenses came to less than £500. So where the fu*k do you get £3K from?
At least the Tories aimed for higher backhanders than a pair of specs and some new strides.

You spend more like £2k and more than one pair.
Oh really maybe you would like to elaborate? Or is it that if you are a champagne socialist everything is more expensive than for plebs?
Starmer was given them because it’s free publicity for them
I rather doubt he would’ve spent £3k had he gone into specsavers and be subjected to their “but one pair get second one free” bolox

Wealthy folk have more spares. I get through loads of cheapies.
All that expensive eye wear and still you cannot see what's really going on in Palestine.
Shame.
Just go read the news properly. My opinion is not relevant. I haven't expressed one. The facts are relevant.
The only comment I have made on the subject is that the rules were met. Another fact. Not an opinion.
LOL MBK finds my politics tricky. Doesn't think I am LW. Wise of him. I prefer facts.
This whole episode has made it clear, that being an MP (and especially, being PM) is thankless at best, and impossible at worst.
Have to have had a "real job", so they can relate to us plebs.
Can't have a second job, coz they're meant to be concentrating solely on us.
Can't have a large salary, as if they did, they'd be accused of doing the job "for the money".
Must have a large salary, so that they can't be "taking us for mugs with their expenses".
Must not wear expensive clothes, or travel by top-drawer means, as this would be "an insult to the taxpayer".
But turn up at any function or, God forbid, have to meet with other heads of other states looking anything other than James Bond-like, and be slaughtered as "disgracing this once great nation".
For me, I want the people who represent my country to look like a million pounds, wafted there in gleaming Range Rovers.............so that everyone knows that we still mean something in this world: that we still "pack a punch". Soft Power.
I don't want a slovenly, Poundland tramp shuffling about after being dropped off in high-miler which leaves an oil patch wherever it stops, just to placate a public who want our politicians to not cost us anything more than a subsistence amount.

What is it with Two Tier Free Gear and pubs? You'd think he'd learn by now. Thrown out of a pub in Bath, banned from Clarkson's new pub, now taken to task by a feisty lady in a Liverpool pub. He's like a rabbit caught in the headlights. His bouncer also tells you all you need to know.
