If the Tories were so bad, why did they keep winning?

You mean apart from when they suffered their most humiliating election defeat ever last year?
Do you just wake up everyday and think up new ways to make a twaaaat out of yourself? It’s honestly quite impressive.

Indeed.
Either she didn’t give full information - her fault
She deliberately tried to get away with it and has been caught - definitely her fault
or
She gave full information and somehow the tax
consultant inexplicably got it horrendously wrong.
Yet she holds the position of housing minister and PM and was first to scream and rant at any opposition who had even a whiff of part of what’s happened here and demanded their resignation
Now backed by a PM who stated that any tax evasion should be treated as a criminal offence.
Wonder if this tax consultancy firm will keep schtum?
And during all this she thought it was all such a giggle.
I’m sure there will be more to follow.

"It's a Thursday evening in late May and I’m in Deansgate Square, a collection of glistening skyscrapers that a few tiresome people persist in calling Manc-hattan. Is Manchester becoming more like London, I ask Iain Butterworth, a waspish florist working at the foot of one of the towers? “It is a bit,” he says, surrounded by £40 bouquets. “I personally like it because I don’t want this chatty northern stuff. You know when people say, ‘Oh, they’re a bit cold in London – no one chats to you at the bus stop’? I’m like, ‘I don’t want people to chat to me at the bus stop.’ So for me, it’s quite good.”
Butterworth, a scouser, came to Manchester in the 90s for the clubs. He likes how the city is changing: more shops, more restaurants, Korean supermarkets selling interesting noodles: “It’s less like London and more global.” Most of his customers are either Chinese or from Gulf states: rich foreign students whose parents don’t mind paying £2,500 a month in rent – and £30,000-plus in annual tuition fees. Almost 10,000 Chinese students are studying at the University of Manchester this year – 21% of the entire student body – as well as more than 1,000 from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE.

You spent near enough ten years posting 'what about Labour' in response to the lastest' Tory scandal, sleaze allegation or evidence of corruption FFS

There's another clown on here whose standard defence is that I'm wound up or something.
At least try and be original and maybe acknowledge you just don't know the full facts and have paid no attention to when I've called out other political parties nonsense.

They are a part of it though.
You're cool with the gentrification pushing out those born in and around the city?
You're rewriting your own history and starting to sound a bit unhinged doing it.
Hypocrisy deserves to be called out and hypocrites tend to get particularly angry when exposed.

Rayner should resign. Caught using the UKs dodgy built in loopholes for the wealthy (although she may well have got it wrong):

I'm sure someone will come out to defend her. Obvious what the intent was from where I'm standing though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Indeed.
Either she didn’t give full information - her fault
She deliberately tried to get away with it and has been caught - definitely her fault
or
She gave full information and somehow the tax
consultant inexplicably got it horrendously wrong.
Yet she holds the position of housing minister and PM and was first to scream and rant at any opposition who had even a whiff of part of what’s happened here and demanded their resignation
Now backed by a PM who stated that any tax evasion should be treated as a criminal offence.
Wonder if this tax consultancy firm will keep schtum?
And during all this she thought it was all such a giggle.
I’m sure there will be more to follow.

Factchecker Jenrick is on a rant about barbers again.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They are driving the economy, I heard of one a couple of weeks ago that had a turnover of £1.2m despite there only being 1 chair in the salon
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Didn't the benevolent Abu Dhabi royal family do similar with parts of Manchester?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes but they built real schools and real leisure centres that everyone can see
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And real skyscrapers everyone can see but not afford.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They’ve not built any skyscrapers in this country that I’m aware of

"It's a Thursday evening in late May and I’m in Deansgate Square, a collection of glistening skyscrapers that a few tiresome people persist in calling Manc-hattan. Is Manchester becoming more like London, I ask Iain Butterworth, a waspish florist working at the foot of one of the towers? “It is a bit,” he says, surrounded by £40 bouquets. “I personally like it because I don’t want this chatty northern stuff. You know when people say, ‘Oh, they’re a bit cold in London – no one chats to you at the bus stop’? I’m like, ‘I don’t want people to chat to me at the bus stop.’ So for me, it’s quite good.”
Butterworth, a scouser, came to Manchester in the 90s for the clubs. He likes how the city is changing: more shops, more restaurants, Korean supermarkets selling interesting noodles: “It’s less like London and more global.” Most of his customers are either Chinese or from Gulf states: rich foreign students whose parents don’t mind paying £2,500 a month in rent – and £30,000-plus in annual tuition fees. Almost 10,000 Chinese students are studying at the University of Manchester this year – 21% of the entire student body – as well as more than 1,000 from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and the UAE.

It's hard to take you seriously when you have no balance, if this was a Tory then at best you'd keep quiet.

Care to explain what Rayner has done or not in any other way, or is this it?

You spent near enough ten years posting 'what about Labour' in response to the lastest' Tory scandal, sleaze allegation or evidence of corruption FFS
Now you're all about the political ethics? I guess when you've run out of cheeks to turn you can move on to crevices and folds eh Rab.

Yawn
There's another clown on here whose standard defence is that I'm wound up or something.
At least try and be original and maybe acknowledge you just don't know the full facts and have paid no attention to when I've called out other political parties nonsense.
Might help, or you could put it down to me being rattled
