It's not just him either, there are others. Carol Vorderman has moved rather rapidly from Tory voting TV number cruncher to Anti-Tory corruption campaigner - far more people will pay attention to what she's saying than the mockney Scotsman too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that sometimes people go to jail when they make “unintentional” errors with the money and assets they have stored overseas. Zahawi seems to be getting a lot more benefit of doubt than us minions would get. Thats why I thought that maybe if/when sacked we’ll hear that the serious fraud office are going to do a proper investigation. Probably not but one can dream.

Genie Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) I just noticed this on the BBC’s paper round up page Quote The Daily Mail previews Chancellor Jeremy Hunt's speech on plans to boost economic growth, saying he will "make the case for optimism" and transform "British genius and hard work" into long-term prosperity. The Chancellor will hit out at "declinism peddled by Labour" and argue that the economy is standing up well against global rivals. How the **** can they serious blame Labour for the state of the economy, AND that the British people are have a negative outlook about our prospects? It’s beyond crazy and into parody. Jeremy Hunt will also be talking about the non-specific freedoms we have now out of the EU. Edited January 27, 2023 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think over the 13 years the amount of people that buy that bollocks has shrunk to almost none. However, they don’t have any other line of attack. They broke the economy. They broke the NHS. They broke the police force. They broke the ambulances. They broke our relationship with EU. They broke the reputation of the UK on the world stage. They broke the hopes and ambitions of millions of British people. So…. blame it on Labour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is the government that thinks “Get Brexit Done” and simple phrases are enough to get into power. They think people are dumb, I’m not so sure they are mesmerised by the Tory crap anymore.

He said Kate could break into Edinburgh zoo at night, climb into the Panda enclosure and kick a baby to death using it as a football. The press would report that Kate helps a young panda into heaven whilst Meghan does NOTHING. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
