At least the Tories aimed for higher backhanders than a pair of specs and some new strides.

So who wants to pay some extra tax so that it gets easier for everybody.

There's an oxymoron in there.

The thought that this particular donor influencing Starmer is plain crazy. His main drives have always been in the woke area so must have bribed some Tory as well.

Corbyn dressed well - ideal rep for the UK world wide. Starmer unlike similar Tory is not rich. I'm reminded of comments about the Blairs having no money and thoughts about what he could do to continue earning a living even from the US. They went into property development in Bristol to help.

So given the salary he gets he gets some immediate help from some one who is prepared to give it. As simple as that and not the first time this sort of thing has cropped up. The donor is a labour supporter but more party money has come from others. Business has a lot more interest this time.

Keeping a whole family in No10 has it's complications. A fact all should appreciate unless they are nuts.

:) Probably came from a charity shop.

LOL Anyway I hope the anti's have taken in the points I made as they are real.

Meanwhile a no more clothes has been mentioned. Hope their wardrobes are adequate. Femal mp's etc wearing designer clothes in the Tory is by no means unusual.

TBH I wonder when the flack from several areas will drop off as it detracts from reality and in general achieve no useful purpose. Or maybe they can keep it up for 5 years. Labour have been elected to do a job. Let them get on with it and at some point view by the results.

LOL Meanwhile the Labour Party Conference. Warnings of more tough actions to build firm foundations. Read this as make the economics sustainable. I suspect that is a true view at what they will be at. More money tends to come along naturally for several reasons. It's value can vary and it's best to maintain it.

Then up pops Unite - it's all so easy tax the rich and open up borrowing. The borrowing aspect could kick off a Truss like reaction. Tax the rich - interesting one. Look at currents takes and see the probably scope for increases. Wealth tax. Spain is said to have a sound solution but that means the tax would not raise as much as expected and only relates to any dead real money they have kicking about. Asset wealth needs to be excluded. Thoughts of needing to sell those to pay tax does seem to be an odd idea for various reasons. Getting them to pay realistic effectively income tax is far more important.

Starner's spec's are interesting. Farage taking the pee out of what his usual glasses caused him to do, Sort of nodding donkey type effect when reading notes and speaking. Big smiles at one of his conventions.
 
Was reading that Freer Starmer has the biggest amount of 'donations' out of anyone in parliament. Think it was about £70,00 last count. Don't know if that includes his hospitality box courtesy of Arsenal. Obviously standing on the terraces like Sunak did at Southampton is too lowly for a man of his hypocrisy.

Even Mrs Starmer, who claims to eschew the limelight of being the first lady, managed to grab £5000 of free clothes from the dodgy muslim benefactor.

But as Freer Starmer keeps saying, tough decisions have to be made. Only pensioners are paying the price at the moment, except one. Sue Gray at 67 years of age won't be shivering this winter. Freer's chief of staff has just had a £25,000 pay increase rubber stamped by her boss. Her Tory predecessor had to slum it on £145,000. Looks like they're all filling their boots extra early - maybe they know they might not last long.

Didn't think anyone could be more corrupt or inept in government than The Tories, but Labour are managing it - and they've only just started!

Notice the right wing press trying to make it look worse though

Thousands, oh the drama!
When they hit the millions or billions that the Tory chums rob directly from the taxpayer, I'll bat an eyelid.

Do you think it looks good? Dodgy donor bungs Starmer, then gets priviliged access pass in return. Even Angela Raver got some cash to spend on a new year break in New York. Wonder if she actually paid for her recent trip to rave clubs in Ibiza? Really good socialists these people?? Been roasting the Tories for 14 years over the same thing - now they're doing something very similar.

They know it's wrong and is against all traditional socialist ideals - otherwise they wouldn't now have declared that they're going to stop accepting dodgy brown envelopes.
