Can lob in the Child Support Payment fuckeries with all this too - never mind asking about the unauthorised sharing of personal data and the incorrect assumptions they make based on it.

This one, though seems to have been set with a longer fuse, so there's clearly more incoming shit to hit the fan and the fireworks from this can wait a bit.

I'm surprised she hasn't blamed 14 years of Tory government, Brexit, Nigel Farage and the " far right"  .

He needs her in place to sack AFTER the budget.

Undoubtedly the estate agents have been paid off to take the hit.

What has happened to Ray? Gone really quiet 
I saw him post something the other day (on the Firestick thread), so he's still alive and kicking.

This is almost as desperate a reach by Kemi Babadook as the Conservative leader in Australia calling the Aust PM anti semitic for wearing a Joy Division tshirt

Perhaps the Conservative Party should be wrapped up & they can all join Reform and tell us what they really believe in

The one good thing that Rayner did was giving Reeves a good old right hander.

And to think when Labour got in to power they couldn't stop proclaiming that 'the grown ups' were now in the room. How many times did Starmer bang on about 14 years of Tory sleaze. 

Well fuck me, him and his rancid party are bang on course to outsleaze the other lot inside two years.
No surprise that Reeves has already blamed someone else ( the agency) for her underhand activities, she is nearly as detestable as her boss.

So Reeves lied last night when she said she didn’t lnow she needed a licence as she had posted previously welcoming the licensing laws.

Now she is hiding behind the agency saying that they never followed up on applying for the licence, when it’s clearly a criminal offense for a landlord to rent out a property without the necessary license - whether the agency agreed to apply  for it or not.

The likes of Newsom, AOC and now Mamdani pandering to an idiotic minority means JD Vance is a shoe-in for the next President.

Do you ever listen to the 'Ruthless Variety' podcast?
They've done some very good shows covering Mamdani and the state of the Dems generally.
Good listen if you have an interest in American politics.
 I have not but maybe I will. Thanks.
