Tottenham Hotspur Football Ball Club can give free tickets to whoever they like. As long as Starmer declares it, there is no problem.

If Spurs gave him £40K to buy some wallpaper, then that would be scandalous.

Just as scandalous as accepting £20k worth of free suits and specs.

Somebody bought him a posh suit so that he can look good in public and he turns up at the party conference wearing trainers and an open-necked shirt. Not what I call looking smart.

"...and he turns up at the party conference wearing trainers and an open-necked shirt."

It's to make the party members feel that Sir Keir Rodney Starmer, KCB, KC, MP, former Director of Public Prosecutions and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, is one of them.

^The sad thing is they believe it.

12:00 indeed gromit but don't you think it's asking for trouble with the whole freebie gate thing blowing up around his ears.

//former Director of Public Prosecutions//   ...   who decided not to prosecute Jimmy Saville or Mohamed Al Fayed before turning his hand to, his brand of, political ethics. 

He'll make his mind up, last week Arsenal, this week Spurs. Chelsea next I assume? Choose your colours mate.

A repeat of Aston Villa/West ham-gate, well at least they wear similar colours Mr Cameron.

Donations to MPs classed as gifts are not taxable yet tips to taxi drivers are.  They are both gifts so why does one get taxed and the other not.

Question Author

because gratuities are taxable, gifts are not.

I don't think many people, if any, are in favour gifts/gratuities for politicians of any party. Having said that, I also think most people would do the same if they could. Twas ever thus.

Gift/gratuity, lie/misinterpretation, it all depends on the rosette one wears.

Those ABers, chaste and purer than the driven snow, won't know what I'm going on abaht but things are different in the big bad world.

 

Perhaps it should be like Asda and B&Q, or sports teams, if someone pays for your clobber then you have to wear their logo or logos if there are muliple sponsors, but maybe not to the extent of F1 drivers.

 

My mate Phil explains that the right-wing press are only interested in attacking Labour; as he says Labour have broken no rules – compared with the likes of Boris Johnson, who broke them on a regular basis.

 

Robert Jenrick (Tory leader hopeful) has even accepted a donation of £75,000; this has not appeared anywhere in the press (worst still, from an off-shore shell company), with my mate Phil pointing out other Tory corrupt gifts/donations (not reported in the right-wing press for some reason).

good to see Phil back!

"My mate Phil explains that the right-wing press are only interested in attacking Labour;"

I think I know what his next release will be:

It will give details of a two year study by the University of the Bleeding Obvious, which shows conclusively their astonishing findings that, contrary to an earlier understanding, bears do not, in fact, use public conveniences.

After that I believe he plans to investigate recent rumours that His Holiness The Pope has been seen participating in Roman Catholic religious ceremonies and rituals. 

As my mate Phil points out towards the end of the video – Attlee once said that a Tory could sleep with 10 women a week, but a Labour politician cannot even look at his neighbour’s wife across the fence (the same is true today).

Just to let all you lefties know,boris did not take the wallpaper when he left ,so it's mrs starmers little lad who now has it.

"Attlee once said that a Tory could sleep with 10 women a week, but a Labour politician cannot even look at his neighbour’s wife across the fence (the same is true today)."

Nobody ever said life was fair.

There would have been riots in the streets if a Tory Exchequer had announced the withdrawal of WFA for 90% of pensioners within a few weeks of taking office. They all have their crosses to bear.
