So you would promote them from the top 5% of earners in our country, to the top 1%? Do you really think this is a good idea? An MP doesn’t have to be a expert in anything, he has advisers who are. They are really only figure heads in their departments, and I am talking here about Ministers and...

How much would you pay them?

That’s the problem, so many Conservative MPs are bent that it’s difficult just to choose one.

When I started this thread, I thought “ Bear pit within 10 posts” 15 pages and still on the main board . Well done everybody. Can we now go after Robert Jenrick, cos if he isn’t corrupt, I’m a Dutchman.

I was going to reply to you and say they couldn’t be that shameless. But no, you’re probably right.

I emailed Loughton a few years ago to ask him about one of the Brexit votes in Parliament, I will admit to being not rude exactly, but, not very understanding of his position. I did call him Mr Loughton and in his reply, that more or less told me to mind my own business, he said “ I’m Sir Tim...

So, how long before poor,bullied, Owen Patterson becomes Lord Patterson of Grifton? I’ll go within 2 years.

Ironically with no right to appeal

The Mail front page headline says MPs, not Tory MPs. I don’t think any of the opposition MPs voted for the Leadsom amendment.

The definition of irony.

Point 1, Patterson’s wife did commit suicide, but, at her inquest he said he knew of no reason for her to take her own life. He did say a couple of months ago, that she had had covid and her health deteriorated after it. He made no mention of the investigation impacting on her mental health...

When I first saw it, I did think it was a parody and I thought it was quite amusing. Then I realised that they were for real and I then found it both hilarious on so many levels and quite frightening. The rumours that Robin Williams had turned up was of the scale mad.

A quick question Lyndhurst, what is the take among sane Americans on the shenanigans in Dallas yesterday?

None of the usual Conservative party apologists posting on this thread. Too much for even them to stomach?

Lots of threads in the bear pit on this very subject.

Both Labour and the SNP have said that they will take no part in Johnson’s proposed new committee. So just Conservatives and DUP to sit on it.

Perhaps a lot of the problem is that a thread ostensibly about a corrupt Conservative MP, and the protection offered to him by his fellow Conservative MPs has morphed into a thread criticising the Labour Party, and their shortcomings. This is how the media including the BBC acts at the moment...

That’s generally it. And you could add in the quite despicable accusation that his wife’s tragic suicide was a product of the investigation into his grifting even though he made no such allegations at the time of her death.

I must admit I do often skip past his political drivel. Does he still maintain he is NOT a Conservative?

We no longer have a Parliamentary Government in charge of the country, we have a very successful crime syndicate in charge.
