That would be an ecumenical matter for Chris to answer. ;)

Starmer reveals exactly why he sacked Angies bloke


The Opposition leader spent this afternoon trying to dig himself out of a hole after outrage at his decision to axe his shadow transport minister. He insisted he was left with no choice but to get rid of the Ilford South MP after he made up party policy "on the hoof".



What's he supposed to do when Starmer has no policies on anything

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer found to have breached MPs' code of conduct - commissioner


https://www.express.co.uk/news/polit...tary-standards


Looks like he's inadvertently flicked the v at the rules.

'Ms Stone said the eight breaches "were minor and/or inadvertent", and "there was no attempt to mislead".'

'Among the interests declared late by Sir Keir was an £18,450 advance from publisher HarperCollins in April for a book he is writing.

He has pledged to donate the sum, which was declared a day late, to charitable causes while royalties for two legal books were also delayed in being registered.'

So to answer your original statement, hardly flicking the V's is it? But then you knew that already didn't you? You little tinker ;)

Come on now, pretending rule breaking is just ok just because it’s the party you support. :dozey:

Very magnanimous of him to donate to charity now that he has been caught breaking the code 8 times

I didn't say it was OK, i said he was not sticking up the V's up.

I'm also not a labour party supporter, not sure where you get that from. I've always been a floating voter.

8 times if he sticks to his own rules, which he doesn't, ever.

Perhaps he’s trying to break Johnson’s record?

Mr Johnson was previously taken to task by the parliamentary Commissioner for Standards for failing to register nine outside income payments within the deadline.

Had no idea it was a competition to see who can take the piss the most times.

His own rules? Do you mean that one where he said he would resign if he was issued a FPN ? I don't see that here do you?

I have no love whatsoever for KS but as the standards commissioner says these are inadvertent.

You're just being your usual WUM aren't you? ;)
