How big are these #FoodBanks? Considering that half the NHS, schoolteachers and what seems to be most of the public sector are all after food freebies, they must be massive? please log in to view this image
Can’t see anything wrong with what the EU want here……and would probably be a good thing. Another reason to get in a Labour Government
Luckily, that Tory donor will investigate as Sunaks advisor so nobody will be allowed to comment for about 5 years!! What an absolute mess the Tories have made of this country. It's embarrassing.
at least he wasnt wasting it on duck ponds 'COKE HABIT CON' Ex-Labour MP Jared O’Mara ‘made £30,000 of fake expense claims to fund cocaine habit’ Paul Sims Published: 21:33, 23 Jan 2023 Updated: 21:33, 23 Jan 2023 Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) EX Labour MP Jared O’Mara made £30,000 of fake expense claims to fund an extensive cocaine habit, a court was told yesterday. O’Mara, 41, who represented Sheffield Hallam from 2017 to 2019, went on trial for fraud over a string of allegedly dishonest invoices for cash. please log in to view this image 1 Jared O’Mara made £30,000 of fake expense claims to fund an extensive cocaine habit, a court was toldCredit: Guzelian He was said to have made four separate requests totalling £19,400 to the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority from a fictional organisation called Confident About Autism SY. Two further claims were made from his chief of staff Gareth Arnold, 30, for media and PR work that prosecutors said was never carried out. O’Mara also submitted a false contract of employment for his pal John Woodliff, 43, on the basis he worked for him as a constituency support officer. None of the invoices were paid by Ipsa — set up after the expenses scandal — due to a lack of evidence that any of the work had been carried out. Prosecutor James Bourne-Arton said: “Jared O’Mara viewed Ipsa, and the taxpayers’ money that they administered, as a source of income that was his to claim and use as he wished, not least in the enjoyment of his extensive cocaine habit.” He was living to or beyond his means and in dire need of cash, the court was told. Mr Bourne-Arton said Arnold and Woodliff were persuaded by O’Mara, who appeared in court via videolink, to go along with the ruse. Arnold eventually blew the whistle and went to police in summer 2019. He told police that O’Mara was “heavily addicted to cocaine that he was abusing in prodigious quantities”, according to Mr Bourne-Arton. The alleged offences took place between June and August 2019. O’Mara, from Sheffield, is charged with eight counts of fraud by false representation. Arnold, of Dronfield, Derbys, is jointly charged with six of the offences, and Woodliff, of Sheffield, is jointly charged with one. They all deny the charges and the trial continues at Leeds crown court.

currently suspended for an unknown reason. This article is more than 4 months old Labour MP Nick Brown has whip suspended after complaint This article is more than 4 months old Exclusive: Labour MP’s party membership suspended until case resolved under new complaints process please log in to view this image Labour MP Nick Brown said he was ‘cooperating fully’ with the investigation. Photograph: Ben Stansall/AFP/Getty Pippa Crerar Political editor @PippaCrerar Wed 7 Sep 2022 20.09 BST Veteran Labour MP Nick Brown has had the whip suspended after a complaint was lodged against him under the party’s new independent complaints process. The Guardian understands that the senior politician, the MP for Newcastle upon Tyne East, who has been chief whip for every Labour leader from Tony Blair onwards, is under investigation after a complaint was made against him. Brown, 72, one of Labour’s longest-serving MPs, has also had his party membership suspended until the case is resolved. The nature of the complaint is unknown. The former minister said he had not been told what the complaint was about but that he was “cooperating fully” with the investigation. He is believed to be the highest-profile figure to face investigation under Labour’s new independent complaints process, which was brought in earlier this year after the party was censured by the equalities watchdog over its handling of antisemitism. In a statement, Brown said: “There has been a complaint made about me to the Labour party, which is under investigation. I am therefore under an administrative suspension from the Labour party until the investigation is concluded. I’m not aware of what the complaint is. I am cooperating fully with the investigation.” Sources said Labour’s chief whip, Alan Campbell, informed the party’s parliamentary committee, which represents MPs in their dealings with the leadership, of Brown’s suspension. Under party rules, once an MP has been administratively suspended and is under investigation, they have the party whip suspended as an automatic precaution. Labour’s new complaints process, signed off at the party conference last autumn, covers all protected characteristics, including race, disability and sexuality, and all forms of discrimination.

Brown was reappointed as Labour chief whip after Keir Starmer’s victory in the 2020 leadership election, making him the only MP to have held the role for three non-consecutive terms, under six different leaders across four decades. Brown left the role of chief whip for the third time as a result of Starmer’s shadow cabinet reshuffle in May 2021.
