A long way from wifebeating.

Probably more to do with the pummelling he would be getting at Question Time and the Opposition Day motion that Labour will be proposing tomorrow

I wonder will she move directly to Head of Communications for the Tories; or write a fawning Biography of the; "Dear Leader", beforehand ?

It's beyond a joke at this stage

Meanwhile, back in the Commons, MPs continue to debate proposed changes to rules surrounding their ability to work second jobs.
Tory MP Mark Fletcher says recent headlines about MPs' second jobs "simply reinforce" what the public feels about politicians.
But he argues this is unfair and urges Labour and other opposition parties to "dial down the mud-slinging" against Conservatives.

I think it’s totally impractical to dream up some sort of approved time allocation. The main thing I’m bothered about is making sure that MPs aren’t paid to try to influence Government policy.

It's, by definition; an MPs job to,"influence Government policy.".

The question is; are they doing it for their Constituents; who pay them 82k, for 40+ hrs a week; or for Scumbag Inc; that pays the 100k+, for 8 hrs a week ? ........ hmmm

This interesting! Never really heard of these groups before but £30m over 5 years is a lot of 'sponsorship'. Many will be legit and run on cross party lines and be fully transparent but it would appear there are some that seem to attract funding from pretty dodgy sources, if you can find out who funds them! As BBC suggest the next focus for investigation? The smell of shit from Westminster doesn't go away and it would appear a lot of mostly Tory MPs are desperate for the attention to disappear.

Are the "European Research Group" and "Covid Research Group" the same? They always seemed like a fucking con.

Disagree. Why kick him out before more shit comes out. Surely kick him out as it comes out if at all. Not like the Tories need to win the working age population vote and they will hoover up the over 60 vote who vote for anything with a blue rosette.

Will the Tory Party membership vote for King Rishi ?

They only voted for Maggie; because she had bigger balls than the alternatives ...... is Rishi whiter than the alternatives ?

He's quite popular with the actual membership, if you ever speak to any of them. My family live in his constituency and I've got an aunt in his local Conservate Association - they've always been very taken with him.

The fate of the Tory party is tied to inflation and if/when interest rates go up and collapse the housing market it's goodnight Vienna.
