the only one when they are quoting the Sunday times!

Government has created a nation of have and have-nots

Utter lies!

Govt did not create such nation - they inherited it (like all previous Govts) and it’s their job to maintain it.

PM of the day can’t even afford wallpaper for his zero price rented flat…

Apparently the PM does have to pay something on the flat. I heard it mentioned in passing on the radio yesterday/day before but the only reference I can find at the moment is from when Brown was PM:

GORDON BROWN was today forced to defend his two homes funded by the taxpayer.

The Prime Minister insisted he had to pay council tax on the flat in No11 Downing Street. The top rate in Westminster is £1,375 a year.

Mr Brown, whose salary is £194,250, also makes a payment for the grace-and-favour home, as a taxable benefit in kind, which covers utility bills.

The PM can choose to live in No.11 (which is bigger) or No.10
