The number of columnists on this hell island who went full anti-Corbyn and subsequently had their faces eaten by leopards must be in the thousands.

I saved these from Twitter this morning. Neither of these two creeps will regret anything they published but they were definitely rattled. 

That's why Sir Kieth has his standing orders to destroy the Labour movement.

I know "Free Press" blah, blah, blah, but it never stops being astonishing that column's like those can be printed in what fashion themselves to be serious newspapers. I'm convinced that if Labour had been 5 points further forward in the polls we'd have had "Jeremy Corbyn ate my Jewish hamster" stories.

He would have got RFK style taken out if he realistically looked like becoming PM.

Our press is the VIP in the manufactured democracy Britain is. As closed to serious opposition as it's possible to be in a liberal democracy. Ash Sarkar and George Monbiot are like the most extreme left viewpoints that are tolerated and the former spends every day getting racist abuse piped directly into all their social media feeds.

He would've been allowed to govern in name only while every part of the establishment and his own party either downed tools or worked against them.

Have either of these two launched a scathing attack on Boris Johnson for his inability to properly comb his hair.  A total embarrassment on the world stage and hopelessly unpatriotic.

Maybe not.

To be fair you can get a decent coat out of asda for £20-£30 so there's no need for Jezza to get all billy big baws in his flashy clothes.

The good people of Esher and Walton have elected a man who doesn't understand common words. Morons.
 
Who came through a law graduate scheme at Linklaters, who I'm sure are a large silver-circle corporate law firm.
And the guy doesn't even understand words.

He's not actually a lawyer is he? Can you imagine if he had to rely on that for his income :lol:

If it wasn't for the meagre allowance for accomodation and the £4k a year no questions asked expenses (before actual expenses) it would be difficult for these poor guys to to work in London on that pittance. 

https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-9148/

Plus 15k extra for committee chairs and junior ministers etc. 

Before any of the usual suspects comes in with the usual "we need good mps" shite, this is how it compares to other government jobs in the London area:

https://uk.indeed.com/m/viewjob?jk=667e80ed72377631&from=serp

https://uk.indeed.com/m/viewjob?jk=40283508cd8ad9d7&from=serp

https://uk.indeed.com/m/viewjob?jk=a034b6c12bb6556c&from=serp

All of which are obviously jobs we'd like complete welts in. 

Oh, and none of the above are jobs where you can work on the side as a hedge fund marketer, arms firm director or reactionary contrarian newspaper columnist. 

Utterly despicable c***s.

Which is usually the advice Tory MPs give to the low paid

I have long maintained MPs should be paid the national average wage, reviewed yearly, plus expenses. With no possibility to advise private companies or in any way have a potential conflict of interest with those of your constituents.

They did similar with local Councillors and they're still largely fucking morons.

Do they not get paid like £17k or something but yeh I agree doing something about the voting system and stopping sex offenders holding onto their jobs would be a good start to clear out the muck.

18k I think with add on for chairing sub committees, expenses etc. If anything the quality of candidates is even worse than it was in the old days.

Incredible that Tory c**t in Aberdeen has been able to brass it out despite being a sex offender [emoji23]

Labour don't have a stream of hard nosed trade union folk coming through with a history of getting stuff done. Politics now seems to be the reserve of largely talentless people which is a shame.

It was nice to see the Lib Dems keep the heat up but doubt he cares.

There was proposed legislation for a "qualification " bar to be set for anyone standing to be a Councillor. Unsurprisingly it got nowhere given that's the background of a large number of MSPs.

This is a deliberate choice that happened in line with loads of economic levers being phased out of democratic political control. Politics is supposed to be alienating and out of touch with ordinary people now.
