Discuss.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

It is quite fortunate for our illustrious leader that so many column inches are being used to cover something that isn't just about him fecking things up though.
It's also getting a bit silly of the DT trying to imply scandal over a packet of hobnobs and a feather duster.Comment

But in all seriousness, I do think its a bit of a smoke screen to deflect from the appalling mess we are currently inI'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

I was wondering last night if the tolerance for the abuse of MP’s allowances was a way of keeping the rank and file quiet while the big frauds are committed. Just how many billions did B’Liar hideaway over the years and how much has the evil snot goblin got in his stash?
So why would they suddenly publish cluster bombshells like this if not as some kind of back-handed form of further support? After all, it's revealed that Tories are troughing too.Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment

Just been sat in the hospital waiting room watching the BBC News channel.
Specifically, some numpty MP saying how cross he is with the system. His professional adviser did the wrong thing and the MP is just a victim in all of this.
Poor thing.
(I must try that line with HMRC about my accountant and see how I get on.)
So, would they use this as a smokescreen? Of course they would.Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.
