I do have basic (as in fundamental) disagreement with the "Tory party" - it's not Tory party at all, yet they defrauded me by pretending to be one.Comment

Originally posted by AtW View PostHe should have STFU on the matter, but what he did say - "I could live on £53 per week" and when offered to try he refused - he should have been sacked right there and then.
