Not another one😮

It would be a relief to have a GE called. I don’t think Sunak is holding off because he thinks Tories will win. Possibly he hoped anti Starmer will build up. What reasons have others got for the delay?

So Michael Gove now being investigated - details confidential.

Not confidential as it’s all over X

I love the thought of a general election taking place but just one at a time!
Its a disgrace on the Tory, whom most of them are, and another good reason to have a general election asap, but of course the Tories won't, cos they know they'll loose

PPE by the sound if it. OK let’s hope this is the beginning of all the MPs involved being locked at.

I do try to avoid speculating but have been waiting for Gove to be scrutinised

Oh dear. I wondered how long it would be before he was under the spotlight. From being all over the media and regularly interviewed, since his divorce he's been very quiet and you hardly hear anything from him. I did wonder if he was keeping a low profile for good reason?

Mind you though the irony that someone not being found guilty of a particularly unpleasant crime is not lost!

He wasn’t charged, didn’t go to court, no case to answer is not the same as not being found guilty

That must be a relief as the accusations were extremely unpleasant.

In the interest of fairness Andrew Rossindale an Essex MP has been there told that there is no case to answer by the Met.

So Scott Benton suspended for 35 days

Looks like another bye election😄😄

Crispin Blunt from my neck of the woods, a fiddler of his expenses, is on police bail under suspicion of rape but is still MP. He won't stand at the next election.

Using racism to bolster support is a very dangerous game.

Not to mention sealing wax and greaseproof paper!

Seriously though, we now have MPs using tactical racism to further their political ends.

Lord,but UK politics is held together with string and chewing gum, apparently. Has it ever been such a circus?

At this rate, if we just wait a couple more weeks, there won’t be many Tories left!

I will celebrate the day!! 🍾🍾🥂

My brother works in a prison as an “educator” it’s a lower security place where sex offenders are encarcerated, among inmates are Judges, Police, Clergy, all sorts of other professionals as well as the expected low life. He says they are the most manipulative people you will ever meet, you cannot trust anything they say or do.

Are they really much different to many Polititians.

Scott Benton is the Tory MP for Blackpool South and the MP for Blackpool North is being investigated for misuse of public funds. We're going to be busy with by elections in our area at this rate. Is there no end to these dishonest MP's? Probably not.

Nothing surprises me anymore. 😕

For Whitewave and Flapper, you can easily research the Lab MPs who've been suspended or in some cases jailed, that's IF you want to. Tories don't have a monopoly for MPs who are corrupt, perverts, or incompetent, in fact history shows it's just daft to have undue faith in ANY politicos, ANY badge.

Major Bliar aide Mandelson got suspended so often for assorted corruptions I lost count, mysteriously he got made a Lord at some point (but then Major is now a Sir, and Hezza a Lord, despite trying to bankrupt the country -- look up Black Wednesday), and now Mandelson is a Starmer aide too.

Let's not leave out the LibDems, they supplied a party leader actually tried for murder (Thorpe), that so lovable character Cyril Smith got exposed as what some might call a 'kiddy fiddler', and the so-reliable and respectable David Steele (actually a Sir) got booted out when it became known that he'd covered up Smith's, er, 'issues' for the sake of the party.

Overall, depressing, isn't it?!

Hoyle and Starmer deny the allegations of

Sorry #Nanatoone, but on this occasion I completely disagree with you. If it's true that Keir Starmer threatened to revoke Labour support for Sir Lindsay Hoyle in the General Election just before the SNP motion was debated that is a truly appalling position to put anyone in. If the reports in the press are true, it was completely unacceptable for him to pressure Lindsay Hoyle just before the debate, That should have happened days earlier.
However, it has increased the number of parties that I will be able to vote for in the General Election. I will not vote for the Tories, Labour, SNP, Greens and that leaves me with Reform and Lib Dems. God help me for both.

General Election cannot come soon enough.These sleazeballs need to be removed from office before they remove all of our rights.I long for competent politicians who govern fairly for ALL of the people and not just for the benefit of the super rich.
