That fine upstanding actor, Martin Freeman appeared in Labours Election broadcast yesterday. This is the man who:
Backed Arthur Scargill (whilst rejecting the Labour Party at the time)
Sends his kids to Private Schools
Let his long term partner, a fellow actor who this week said "*** the Tories, to go backrupt in 2013, owing the tax man £120,000. This is a basic form of tax dodging. Live with a wealthy partner, don't pay your tax, declare bankruptcy and have no consequences.
Talk about double standards. I think Lsbour should be more careful about choosing its 'Celebrities' in future.
There’s nothing wrong in sending your children to private school if you can afford it, but anyone who does it whilst giving the impression that they support Labour with its damaging 'one size fits all' educational policy is a hypocrite. Diane Abbot is another ‘do as I say not as I do’. Irrelevant I know, but Martin Freeman is a rotten actor. I watched him...
I am not sure why it should be assumed that Martin Freeman's views (or those of any other actor) should be more "valid" or carry more weight in an election broadcast than mine or anyone else's.
Always people ready to jump on anyone who has an opinion,what difference does it make to you what he`s said or done in the past,no more skeletons in the cupboard than Tory supporters
