Just that really.

Where is the info about Angela's son and his porn career, please?

Casdon talking of the norm is ironic. I don’t know of any other politician with children in the porn industry so it’s a bit of a first.

The only reason you don’t know is that the details of the private lives of other politicians adult children isn’t published.

Ah, it's on the guido fawkes site.
Must be true then.

Wyllow3 Wed 29-May-24 22:52:21

Guido Fawkes is one of the most nasty political blogs around. Been reading up on it and its writer Paul Staines.

Takes some reading but if you want to know -

Stick to Private Eye...

CasdonDiane Abbott has very sadly had a very difficult time with her son which was published at the time.
I remember a very active press on Jonathan Aitken’s family life. The Blair and Cameron families have all had mention in the media.
I think that if any other politician’s children were porn stars, the media would be all over it.

Anniebach Thu 30-May-24 07:44:22

Jonathan Aitkens godfather to Abbotts son was jailed for perjury

New births in Blair and Cameron families were mentioned,
nothing when Blair and Cameron were in office

Nicenanny3 Thu 30-May-24 07:47:41

I couldn't resist a peek😁

Angela Rayner’s son, Ryan Batty, has starred in multiple porn films put on the internet site OnlyFans with his wife, Rayner’s daughter-in-law. The porn account is well-publicised on Instagram and Twitter – it’s been running at full “throttle” since 2022. Neither account is followed by Angela…

I agree if it was one of Nigel Farage's offspring the left would have been all over it.

A porn account is now publicised on GransNet

ronib Thu 30-May-24 08:10:56

Anniebach don’t worry the porn account has been temporarily closed down. £5.50 a month subscription- even more than Private Eye.

Anniebach Thu 30-May-24 08:13:37

Really ronib you have much knowledge of it

Iam64 Thu 30-May-24 08:17:54

The level of sheer nastiness directed to Angela Rayner by a few posters here is unedifying. Attack her politics, criticise her political beliefs by all means.
She’s cleared of any criminality or wrong doing after a totally unnecessary police probe into the sale if a house years ago so let’s dig around for dirt on her adult son.

Haha yes and I'm sure the usual suspects (the gransnet police) will be pummerling the report button so it won't be there long 😊

Anniebach Thu 30-May-24 08:31:44

I certainly have no problem with resisting a peak of a porn site,
wouldn’t know where to find one

Nicenanny3 Thu 30-May-24 08:37:35

It's not a porn site it's Guido Fawkes on YouTube telling his readers about the site that Rayners son is on and no nor have I looked at a porn site perish the thought no thanks.

ronib Thu 30-May-24 08:39:25

Iam64 I am seriously worried about any politician with family links to the sex industry and I don’t agree that this is an attack on Angela Rayner. Voters are allowed to form their own opinions about the sort of people they want in power over them. I happen to hanker after some return to normality in politics after the Boris Johnson era and so far it’s very elusive.

Doodledog Thu 30-May-24 08:41:21

Agreed, Iam. People complain about the calibre of politicians, but it’s really not surprising that more people don’t come forward to serve their constituents- there are no depths to which the press won’t sink when it comes to discrediting them (particularly those on the left), and all too many people lap it up and revel in the gossip.

I wouldn’t be happy if my son and DIL had a porn channel or whatever this is, but there would be nothing I could do to prevent them, as they are their own people. We bring up our children the best we can, but they are their own people who make their own decisions, whether we approve of them or not. It would be different if AR were funding this enterprise, or if she had a role in the films, but there is no suggestion that this is the case. If what the son has done is illegal he should be prosecuted, but even if that happened it wouldn’t mean that AR should be vilified. It’s not her fault.

Interestingly Sunak paid a 5 minute visit to Honiton yesterday.

Honiton you might recall has always been a very safe Tory seat, but is no longer.

Can anyone remember why?

It is because the sitting Tory MP was given the sack whilst watching PORN - oops sorry - I meant tractors - whilst sitting on the back benches.

Perhaps it was master Rayner he was drooling over.

I will have to accept your word, I have never seen or looked for
a porn site

Whitewavemark2 Thu 30-May-24 08:43:45

Well it is an honest living on which they will pay tax - it is classed as a service.

Can’t say the same about every MP.

I have no interest in the activities of the adult children of any MPs. Do you not see that following gossip says more about you than it does about the MP, whoever it is? Why can we not have any political debate without these inane posts?

ronib Thu 30-May-24 08:58:15

Quite agree that it is not AR’s fault that her immediate family are actively involved in the sex industry but doesn’t say much for that family’s political judgment or perhaps this is the sort of publicity AR wants?

Primrose53 Thu 30-May-24 09:01:40

If Angela Rayner thinks that’s the end of it she is very much mistaken. The neighbours are still insisting she is lying. The truth will out eventually.

I guess she will be needing time to think about something else. Like her scummy son and DIL. 😝
