So, because IR35 I'm not allowed to claim diddly-squat on expenses.. MP's on the other hand get to claim almost anything by the look of it.
How about their entire gas and electricity bills??

MPs who represent seats outside London will be protected from rising fuel bills
316 MPs put in utilities claims in 2020-21 with dozens claiming more than average dual fuel tariff of £1,138

Voter ID cards were voted in last night.
85 Tory MPs who voted against vaccination passports because of civil liberty issues last night supported the government.

......... and there you go! This combined with the proposed boundary changes will keep them in for the next 20 years,
How many actual cases of election fraud have we had in the UK? You can probably count them all on two hands.

You need to watch the unedited full version, it's relentless. Repetitive, but utterly relentless.

And let's not forget the standing at a lectern with a witty 3 word slogan dictating the rules to the nation.

A Tory MP has just publicly accused the government of blackmailing Tory MPs. William Wragg said that the Tories are using whips to attack anyone who is thought or known not to back Johnson. Threats including withdrawing funds to MP constituencies and publishing stories to the press to embarass those MPs.
He's told them to go to the police and report them to the Speaker.
In other news. Sue Gray has been given an email from a senior official to the PM's private secretary warning him that the party on 20th May 2020 should not go ahead.

Bullying his own MPs will just rip the party in two.

The current shit shower (all parties included) really are exposing quite how corrupt and self serving British politics is.
Frankly, it's an embarrassment to the country. especially so at a time where we need to build or rebuild post-brexit foreign relationships based on trust.
