But you can use up to ?10,000 a year (new allowance) to "communicate" with your constituents. HAve you not noticed the new glossies we're getting thru' the letter box extolling MPs performance? Creates an inbuilt bias for sitting MP - who should be relying upon their performance, not their PR machine and expenses, to be re-elected.

Theres always a "way" of palming off the cost onto someone else - HH is slippery enough to know that.


Sadly this chap little gimmick often works, dazzling people for long enough to get them onside.


I however have pride and respect for myself - a few drinks and a canape or two will not rid me of my utter cynicism of the whole back slapping, pocket lining political circus typified by Harman and her kind.


Proud of your involvement in Iraq Harriet ? would you vote for it now ? still, a few hundred thousand dead is a small price to pay for your career on the gravy train.Still at least you have your plus side - like your support of ID cards

and expanded anti terrorism laws ( even though the vote for eerak invasion probabaly turned more people into potentuial terrorists than any other event in the UK)


you and your kind make me sick Harriet.


I dont know how you sleep at night


Im sure your simpering lackeys will check out this post and may even attempt what is now refered to as an " Osborne Stewart" defence - i.e. a bogus post intended to promote a cause or opportunity on a public forum

HH is exactly the type of intense, turkey-necked, unimaginative careerist, with her steely-glare and "I pretend to be nice but get in the way of my career and I will slaughter you" slag that I have identified elsewhere on this board, ie. just like TJ.

    • Eh? That wasn't "my quote"! If you look at your post above,it is clearly a quote by Rockets! None of us have any  idea what a Corbyn led government during Covid would have been like. But do you seriously think it would have been worse than Johnson's self-serving performance? What you say about the swing of seats away from Labour in 2019 is true. But you have missed my point completely. The fact that Labour under Corbyn got more than ten million votes does not mean that Corbyn was "unelectable", does it? The present electoral system is bonkers, which is why a change is apparently on the cards. Anyway, it is pointless discussing this, because we are going round in circles. As for McCluskey, whatever the truth of that report, I can't see what it has to do with Corbyn?
    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
