Just making it clear. If it was a Tory it would have been sung from the rooftops.
It's been the subject of a number of rooftop sing songs as breaking news by the Guardian, Sky news, ITV, the Fail, of course, and many more.
Oh I should have added porngate to my original post. That's the current gates to be added to the list of corrupt and shame gates already out there.
The tories happen to be the biggest bunch of ****s in a houseful of ****s.
This porn-watching tory is arrogant enough to think he can do what he likes, because he`s seen his `superiors` get away with a plethora of offences with no consequences.

He was just concentrating on the job in hand.
I'm surprised that anyone is surprised that MPs watch porn in the commons - we know they are all ****ers anyway.
I know Os can't see this, but 'centrally controlled money' is hardly a modern invention. The Bank of England was founded in the 17th century.
And the gold standard isn't a guard against inflationary crises: historically, it was often the cause of them. Gold is volatile as hell (not as volatile as Bitcoin, but few things are)! Curbing inflation is the literal reason that the US abandoned the gold standard!
She should really do some research first.

The lack of intelligence, in our government, is actually quite scary. So many of them genuinely don’t know what they are doing or understand anything about the jobs they are tasked in doing.
Still, it gives hope to the students that sit at the back of the class, eating chalk and struggling with the challenge of walking and talking at the same time.
Making the BBC news - Kier Starmer had a beer with dinner at a constituency office and Angela Rayner was there (conveniently we forget this wasn’t a party, unlike Johnson’s event).
Not making the BBC News - Conservative peer has home raided in relation to up to £200 million Covid PPE fraud.

Flip flop into the tank Neil Parish was having a ****.
The media are going to be ****ed if there's any political scandal actually involving a gate, because what can they call it?

I am seeing comments that Johnson wants to re-introduce (I didn’t know that it had stopped) the “right to buy” scheme, at discount prices, first introduced by Thatcher in her attempts to destroy council housing stock and gain some working class supporters.
We are already short of housing, rents and house prices are astronomical, and getting worse, yet Johnson is trying to make it worse in the hope that he can gain a few more votes. What a ****.
And why is this “right to buy” only ever applied to social housing?
When are tenants going to be given the right to buy, at discounted prices, the property they are renting from a private landlord? We all know the answer to that. Never.
