I previously worked with lotsa the chancing c#### you describe, many of them (not all!) were Tories and quite happy to see other union members pay out their monthly fees while shamelessly picking up their amended annual salaries due to the pay bargaining of union officials. It was a win-win position for these morons apart from the odd occasion they were confronted by other colleagues re their stance in happily picking up the money and having the "brass neck" to brazenly take the criticism and move on regardless. This has always been one of the huge weaknesses that has existed in the workplace; it is still present today and divides people - straight out of the Tory (aka the selfish, greedy bastards political party) employment manual on the cynical division of working people/employees. IMO one solution to this problem was to force non-union members to negotiate their own pay deals. However, that wasn't possible to achieve anyway because of the anti-trade union laws imposed by the Tory govt thereby ensuring such division while it is a fact that many middle-management to upper-man staff in certain employment sectors did indeed negotiate their own salaries while doing it discreetly. My main point is that this issue has always been a mixed bag of anomalies within the employment sector.

That interview he did with Kuennsberg today was absolute car crash stuff.

Sunak is the epitome of the modern leader - utterly bereft of charisma, policies or ideals!!! A non-entity!!

.... and she supposedly gives them an easy ride. Haven't seen it but it won't take long to read the various reported versions and work out where the truth lies. Funny how some of these Tory papers forget we can see (idf we want) exactly what what they are misrepresenting.

Without even trying he's convinced everyone he has a private GP and is just too craven to admit it.
Not a good look. Or telling social care workers to get by on vibes when cash is short.
He's becoming more and more like that gonk from inbetweeners every day.

It was a yes or no answer to a closed question, but MP's don't do yes or no answers. PM's in particular would rather answer a question they weren't asked, especially Tory PM's but in this case it was pretty obvious, if he didn't answer no, convincingly, the real answer was yes.

No one seriously is going to believe that someone who's family is worth 750 mill isn't using private healthcare. So he might as well have told the truth.

He knows it is an embarrassingly poor show if he's preaching re the good things about the NHS. As bad as his previous embarrassing episode talking to a homeless man and asking if he had been in business, an idiotic "out of touch" conversation.

Meanwhile our caring, sharing Government that "puts the patients first" happily keeps on killing us in ever growing numbers. I've said it before, if the Tory so called "Press" looked at numbers like these in Eastern Europe, Africa, the Middle East or the Far East, they'd be screaming genocide. Because it's happening right here on their doorsteps, on their watch, as a direct result of the policies of the Party Party that they financially and otherwise support, it gets totally ignored.

Meanwhile, reporting on Harry's little book of "he said, she said, they didn't help me much, oh, why am I so entitled?" continues to take front page column inches. Who needs dead cat stories like "lets all return to using Imperial Measurements" when they've bollox like this to help hide the real facts of what this Government is getting away with?
Oh, and regarding that Olympic legacy that would build a fitter and healthier country? Yeah, that's working out well too isn't it?

Shock, horror.
West Midlands Mayor, and Fabricant's boyfriend, (what do you mean you didn't know?) slags off Prime Minister over Levelling Up bollox.

Will Fabricant ever get over one of his heroes being speared like this, by his lover of all people, or will he turn the other cheek (of his arse) back to Bodgit and urge him to run again, tomorrow? I can see this all ending in tears, or a party in Downing Street.
Like the Tories could ever find anyone with one, let alone one with all these traits in their ranks.
Go ahead punks, make our day.

Not holding my breath and they'll probably think I mean a New Zealander.
