The New Tories - Ruthlessly Incompetent. Post Examples of Tory Stupidity Here

MPs will get a £2,212 pay rise on 1 April, seeing an MP's basic salary go up to £84,144 a year.

The 2.7% rise will come in the same week that millions of workers see their wages hit by a National Insurance increase.

Let's hope others follow suit. Doubt it though.

What do you expect? the flow of money from dodgy Russian businessmen is under serious threat. Got to make it up somewhere.

 

[PR1Berske]

Another Labour MP has confirmed they'll donate the increase to charity. Last thing Boris wants is this becoming a "thing".

They'll have the whip removed if they're not careful

 

[Artaxerxes]

Bunch of them do it every pay rise.

Its seldom anyone important.

Ms Chernukhin and her ex finance minister husband have duel citizenship and properties in Russia as well as UK. I wonder what a heavy duty artillery version of sanctions could do with all that wealth. Thats unless they have paid enough from their well out of reach money to the conservative party to be immune from everything

 

[Dogsauce]

Lubov Chernukhin made two donations, declared in October and December last year. The first is understood to be a table at the Black and White Ball, the second a bid in the fundraising auction.

How big was this table, was it unusually long by any chance, and what did she do with it?

£22k NOT to endure a night of karaoke with Liz Truss might have the moths flying out of some Gucci wallets - but this is batshit.

 

[brogdale]

Wonder if Sue Gray has anything on atm?

 

[quiet guy]

Another Trussy selfie, although this one with Sergey Pechinin, the Russian lobbyist who is able to "open doors" in Westminster for his wealthy clients, will probably not make her Instagram account.

What a bunch of stinkers. Wouldn't trust 'em to run a lockdown party let alone a military conflict

Student loan changes hit lower earners harder than first thought – IFS

harder than who first thought? I'm sure the scum knew exactly who it was going to hit.

I hope to fuck Liz Truss never becomes PM, she's obviously angling for it.

She's getting the photo opps in for certain. Ben Wallace's stock is rising, and Priti Patel has about 20 different Bills going through Parliament so is always on the battle field.

The person whose ambitions are collapsed like soufflé in a cupboard is Rishi, now forever tied to the cost of living crisis. Maybe he could have struck sooner, his time perhaps has passed.

Just seen a news flash that Johnson has awarded Gavin Williamson a knighthood. Fucking hell he must have some really nasty shit on Johnson

Have we got to the bit where we get imprisoned if we refer mantlepiece-man without acknowledging his K?

We all do, but that never seems to matter.

What the MoJ hasn't trumpeted, however, is a 44-page document that has been sent to prisons, titled, 'Prepare for your future: Empower yourself for release'. I have seen a copy - and some of the advice it contains is anything but "empowering".




Marking territory




A section headed 'Accommodation' includes "practical tips" for prisoners who may end up homeless.




"Finding somewhere to sleep or rest can often be one of the biggest worries," it says. "Sometimes you can find shelter from abandoned buildings...there might also be bridges."

They're not even encouraged to pick fruit? Refugees get everything, don't they?

Thanks. Particularly liked this quote:

Sam Freedman, a former government adviser and a fellow at the Institute for Government think tank, said: “If ever there was an example of grade inflation it’s Gavin Williamson being given a knighthood.
