Keir Starmer accepted £76,000 of freebies including tickets to over 20 football games (ft.com)

Sir Keir Starmer accepted £76,000 worth of entertainment, clothes and similar freebies from UK donors since the 2019 general election, more than almost any other MP, according to research by the Financial Times.

Or Jenrick, current favourite to be next LOTO - taking 75k from an offshore company that has never made a profit

But nothing to see here obviously. Angela's frocks though, burn the witch

The bottom line is this: taking gifts is a bad look. Both parties have been guilty of it. Only one is now considering doing something about it. Why did the other not consider it while they were in office?

Oh hiya ToryHQ 👋

Yeah he's just like that lying, racist, multiple woman-impregnating, elitist, cheating fuck wit Boris.

NOT! 🤷🏻‍♀️

To be fair to Kemi Badenoch, her register of interests only shows 4 sets of hospitality freebies since 2019 - including the 3 events mentioned in your link. By comparison, the Guardian reported that Keir Starmer had registered 40 sets of free tickets - 10 times as many.

Why do posters do this? It's as if no-one could support anything but Labour. Just imagine 🙄
PS It's not funny either, if that was the intention.

And that makes it OK, does it?
I think he's going to have to do better than Not As Bad As Boris, although that seems to be the go-to justification around here.

So BloJo definitely worked after 6pm on a Friday?

I doubt he worked much any Friday.

Also - Sunak was out of the country a lot of the time. This is just arrant nonsense

Boris Johnson was getting paid £250 k or something to write a column in the Telegraph. Didn't see that making headlines on the Mail or BBC.

The BBC and the Mail both reported it!

probably because Johnson got defended to the hilt in the media and on here

I don't think anyone can be worse than him

Starmer is a lightweight!

^Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will take his first proper family holiday for four years, this week, Downing Street has said.

I think that sets an appalling example and is typical of the British culture of presenteeism. It's also not great for family life. You'd have to be a workaholic numpty to live like that and frankly I'd rather have someone who took time out for family life and R&R in charge of the country.

To be fair he’s got a great big house with a swimming pool in one of the most beautiful parts of the country where many families choose to go on holiday. It’s not really a hardship.

Not to mention Sunak took private flights at the countries expense everywhere, so no need to queue.
I suppose when you have multiple houses, in multiple countries you never have to go on holiday, it must feel like a permanent situation, it's not like he achieved anything in work.
