You want public funding to buy clothes so that you look nice?
Beggars belief.

You already get free breakfasts, travel and your heating paid for.

I'll take a bucket round at the next pensioner bingo session and send you whatever gets put in it. You can wear that.

It's called using your wages....just like everyone else! You are trying to defend the indefensible and it makes you look stupid Sir.

The determination to defend Starmer et al can do anything wrong is childish and pathetic
Why not just acknowledge that the LP MPs do what they said was wrong when the other party did it?

No, Sunak's wife wan't given cruel nicknames or openly criticised (she was privately) and I think I know why but I am not putting it in print.

So interesting point - Mrs Sunak paid £20 million to stay here and relinquished her non dom status- quite an expensive misjudgment even if she could easily have afforded it. Quite a difference with the latest bunch …..

yes Starmer was late declaring his freebies, but quick off the mark stopping wfp.

I just happen to think that there are far more important things to be worrying about. The state of our maternity hospitals for a start. And our prisons.

There are lots more things that are important Maybee70.

It would be great if Starmer didn’t do things he has previously condemned, so that the focus would be on those more important things.

It's also possible to worry about number of things at once. And actually the integrity and honesty of those leading is is quite important.
