Is fleeing the scene of your drunk driving accident another marker of authentic womanhood? Although he did 'swerve to avoid a cat '. Allegedly.

I'll just leave this here.

In the 2009 European elections, Sinclaire was elected as a UKIP Member of the European Parliament for the West Midlands region, while holding the second place on the UKIP list.[10] Thus she became the first openly lesbian member of the European Parliament for the UK delegation.

Oh we used to love Ms Sinclair being on the telly. Lady voice , lady voice. Gets annoyed, forgets the lady voice.Goes full angry man voice. Voice in his head says "Remember the lady voice , remember the lady voice"

The politician, 38, was wearing a black leather mini-skirt, high heels, and a pearl necklace at the time of the late-night collision - which he said was caused by him swerving to avoid a cat on the road.

a pearl necklace 😂😂😂😂😂

You'd never wear a pearl necklace with a leather mini skirt. High heels are soooo out these days. Leather mini skirt, opaque black tights. Fabulous flats. White shirt, black cashmere roll neck. Statement earrings.

Depends on what sort of pearl necklace.

Anyone remember when we used to have politicians like Robin Cook and Mo Mowlem? What the fuck happened?

Social media eroding journalism and public accountability and the rise of PR crisis management.

Sadly for Jamie, I think he's gone past the point of pr crisis management.

Someone is paying for that expensive barrister and I’m guessing the defendant isn’t well off.

You’d be wrong. His dad is rolling in it. Bankrolls little junior.

Is fleeing the scene of your drunk driving accident another marker of authentic womanhood? Although he did 'swerve to avoid a cat '. Allegedly.

In the UK, male drivers are statistically more likely to be convicted of drink driving than female drivers. Data from the RAC shows that 79% of collisions involving alcohol involve male drivers, while 20% involve female drivers.

Men are more likely to be involved in car accidents, and women are more likely to be trapped in a car accident (womens fatality rates are higher if they are involved in a crash).

DARVO. In fact, the cat swerved to avoid him.

MattCauthon · 19/05/2025 15:48

I am kind of gobsmacked that the defense is, "he ewas having a tough time mentally and his ex wife was the person he needed most for support". Is that a defense that could actually work? Becuase if that's the case, I'm going to court to INSIST that from now on the only person I can get support from is Daniel Craig and I'd like him to be installed in my house permanently.....

You are very naughty 😂

Wrong!

The cat was attacking him. It was a transphobic cat.

It does happen with landslides, that paper candidates get elected in seats nobody really thought were in contention, and then you ask "who on earth thought this dingbat was a good candidate?"

Jamie Wallis seems to be the last parliament's answer to Jared O'Mara.

Who will be this parliament's answer to Jamie Wallis?

Kier Starmer

Having read his barrister's webpage and the high opinion of her held by her fellow silks [I'm enjoying calling people 'silks', it makes me feel all legal-ish😄Or horse-racing-ish - jockey's silks are much more colourful! ]

Narita Bahra KC is described as one of the most sought after silks in the country and one of the finest silks at the modern criminal Bar.
a silks' silk, apparently.

The Modern Criminal Bar - that is a good name for a pub - 'See you down the Mod Crim for a drink later!'

So I'm fascinated by her taking on this case - if not for laughs and the Tesco Express Lunch Deals - and how she's going to defend Wallis, having already misgendered him before the hearing even started. Maybe she plans to paint him as a poor confused man who can't be held responsible for anything he does...

Thanks for the info about the journalist Conor Gogarty, Fairyflaps. He sounds Old School with a 'ch'Smile I look forward to following his reporting of the Wallis case.

I’ve seen suggestion that the bruises on the arms might be track marks. Though he also has bruises on his face…

LesserCelandine · 20/05/2025 10:23

In terms of becoming an MP - a lot of selection is down to small constituency parties that can be dominated by a single clique. If he father is very wealthy I can see how he would be able to acquire influence within a constituency party - especially in conventionally labour areas where the Tory group might be very small and not considered important by the central party,

SionnachRuadh · 20/05/2025 10:30

And even if the central party did take an interest in out of the way Welsh seats, one of the most influential people in Tory candidate selection is a guy who used to run swingers' parties.

So there's that.

Irritateddaily · 20/05/2025 10:42

Sorry If I've missed something here but is there a reason all the newspapers (BBC and Dm etc) are using male pronouns? - in a few cases they've made it clear that 'Katie'- is now full time and using she/ her pronouns ? Newspapers before would fall over themselves to use the pronouns that the person requests?

RedToothBrush · 20/05/2025 10:58

'Katie's' wiki is quite the read:

Wallis is one of the owners of a company called Fields Holdings Limited, the parent company of Action Direct (UK) Limited, a former claims management company of which Wallis was a director in 2011 when the Ministry of Justice banned it from taking on any further employment claims work, following an investigation into the company's conduct. She remained a director until February 2012.

In July 2010, a Freedom of Information request (2417) was made to Bridgend County Borough Council asking how many complaints or referrals to Trading Standards had been made about companies linked to her. According to the FoI response, Trading Standards had received 137 complaints about Action Direct (UK) Ltd, 166 about Fields Data Recovery Ltd, 151 about Quickie Divorce Ltd, 26 about Rapid Data Recovery Ltd, seven about Field Associates Ltd and 12 about Injunction Direct UK. The response also listed enforcement visits by Trading Standards against several of Wallis' companies. In January 2020, after being elected to Parliament, Wallis threatened to take legal action against the council over the matter under the Freedom of Information Act. In January 2022, the council stated that it had heard nothing from her lawyer since then.

Wallis was a member of Pencoed town council, representing the Hendre ward on behalf of the Conservative Party, until 2018, when she was disqualified for non-attendance. She later stated that she had resigned from the council by letter, but the council had not received the letter. She said that her reason for resigning was that she had relocated to Cowbridge, where she joined the town council.

Before she was elected as MP for Bridgend in 2019, she had stood unsuccessfully in Ogmore in the 2017 United Kingdom general election and Ogmore in the 2016 National Assembly for Wales election. At the 2019 general election she defeated incumbent Labour MP Madeleine Moon, who had represented Bridgend since 2005.

An investigation by BuzzFeed in January 2020 found that Wallis had been a co-owner of a 'sugar daddy' dating website, "which offered students financial relationships with wealthy 'sponsors'". Although Wallis initially denied links to the company, Buzzfeed found that she had been a director and shareholder of the site's parent company. The Labour MP Jess Phillips called for Wallis to have the Conservative party whip removed. Since the 2019 election, Wallis has quit as director of at least seven companies.

On the day of the second ballot of MPs in the July 2022 Conservative Party leadership election, Wallis said that she was backing the campaign of Penny Mordaunt. Wallis later called on party leader and prime minister Liz Truss to resign, citing her failure to challenge anti-transgender rhetoric in the election.

In October 2023, Wallis stated that she would not seek re-election to the Bridgend constituency at the next general election, but may seek an alternative constituency outside Wales

It reads like spoilt rich boy has lots of company interests which are plain scams or gifts or just unpleasant. He has a terrible attitude to the wellbeing of other people generally and sees them all as just there to serve him rather than him being their to serve him. He clearly thinks he's too good for Bridgend. And then Daddy comes in to rescue him when he fucks it all up. He's the kind of guy that Daddy must despair of. "Oh god son, what have you done this time?". A 40 year old manchild.

Also call me cynical but, nothing like a name changes to help you look better if someone searches you on companies house or online...

I hope it is edging back to reality.

I'll be honest the only person I know who tends to look like Jamie currently does is addicted to crack cocaine.
