Its actually quite incredible that she was specifically recommended to take tax advice and she didn't. I'm also somewhat surprised that there isn't a party affiliated lawyer to oversee some of these things (at cost) to prevent these kinds of scandals.
Rayner's fallibility, the ostensibly devout socialist, has exposed the truth that socialist ideology is a fraud - because when it comes to choosing, everyone chooses family over socialism.:thumbup:Quote:

Labour's most recent Executive Director of Legal Affairs was Alex Barros-Curtis, the MP for Cardiff West. I think he left the post in July 2024 when he was elected in Cardiff after being parachuted in.Quote:

AB-C was the man who purged the Corbynites and the alleged antisemites from Labour. He also ran Kier Starmer's leadership campaign.
Another Corbynite has now bitten the dust and conspiracy theorists may wonder whether AB-C was in any way involved in giving Rayner 'advice'.
He did say something, he said it was all Farage's fault :biggrin:Quote:

I did it to explain to you, that being born in Cardiff and living in Ely and Canton all my life, unlike you by the way, that I had encountered very little racism at all. Ely has always been a big melting pot anyway.
You took it upon yourself to more or less say, I was talking bollox. That’s the day I realised you were as daft as a brush, and not to be taken too seriously.
As I said earlier, I stand by my opinion about the athletes getting searched. You are entitled to stand by your opinion. Thats how it works with opinions.
Now I’m off to work again, so feel free to reply with another load on one eyed dog pooh, and maybe I’ll reply when I have some more well earned free time.
I dont care where you live , how hard you think you work or what colour you areQuote:

I am happy to take a hit from time to time but not from the likes of you 🤣
It's not a question of some people looking after their family first and others espousing Socialism. It's basically some people are self-serving t***s and others aren't.
I have no sympathy for her , she basically shot herself in the footQuote:

She does claim to be a socialist.... but Kier Starmer also made that claim once! Words are cheap.
You've got to laugh at Kemi Badenoch trying to take the moral high ground. You can guarantee if it has been someone in her party it would be the ethics adviser resigning
Agree completely! If you want to enter politics you disavow personal gain. It's as simple as that. You should be exclusively an advocate for the people! If you desist, on your bike! It's not rocket science.Quote:

I'm not, the wherewithal to play dumb and pretend you make a mistake wouldn't be a potential excuse.Quote:

Is David Lamouchi related to our ex manager?Quote:

Until he walks the plank the country is walking towards Farage as Prime Minister

Attributed to Plato.
Let’s be honest, right across the political spectrum for a good number of years there seems to have been very slim pickings of candidates with intelligence and integrity.
They all seem sleazy, self serving with the gravitas of Donald Duck.
What happened to political heavyweights?
Is it just because I am getting older that it seems this way to me…similar to my disdain for a lot of modern culture?
I do honestly think that Corbyn had the morals…unfortunately though, he appeared to be too radical.
Mick Lynch/Blue Labour is something that I could get behind.

Feeling better for someone’s misfortune or getting things wrong.
I posted a few questions to Cyril a little while back, which he answered eloquently…that related to this.
I can’t quite remember but I think my point in questioning was something along the lines of would you rather be wrong in your thinking for the greater good?
There is a a large chance, that isn’t how I put the question or how it was perceived.
Thing is now that politics has become one team against the other (with plenty of other people being left behind thinking WTF?) petty point scoring is what we have as a result.
Has the capability to yield or bend with the wind gone forever when lines have been so deeply drawn in the sand?
David Lammy is insufferable and I want Labour to do well
