    Taking illegal bungs, that evade tax, and break the ministerial code, from donors wanting leverage, is not the right way to go about it though.
    This is one argument why leaders should be highly paid and have all these things as part of the job, to remove temptation or at least make it a lot more expensive. It should cost millions to buy the PM's favor!
    However this is all conjecture anyway. 'Allegedly' as they used to say on HIGNFY

    Mods - Shouldn't this be in the Brexit forum, rather than polluting this thread with off-topic Europhiliac crowing?

    No fish shortage the EU is randomly turning away deliveries so we will probably have a glut soon.

    I do really wonder why as Downing street is probably listed why the upkeep isn't treated like a national cost.

    Sadly neither side of the house are doing well on the integrity front, so it's a case of a glass house of Commons. iirc Labour have one of their MPs in court either this month or next month over housing fraud.

    Reduce the number of MPs, pay them more and give all standard MPs the same basic expense budget except for travel between their constituency and London. If they reside somewhere other that their constituency, then they're out of touch with it and should be moved on. Won't happen but should.

    Meanwhile, remoaners are complaining about a man in a boat having to fish elsewhere while the majority of people are far more bothered that we're smashing it on the vaccine front. Log off.
