      Also, from a man who made £multi-millions betting *for* the 2008 financial crash when he was working as a hedge fund manager at TCI Investments.
      That's right, he made himself filthy rich by placing bets on people's suffering.

    Sunak either doesn't have the first idea about disciplinary procedures or he is deliberately avoiding putting established practices into place.
    What is the point of a suspension? It is so that somebody who is suspected of wrong doing can be removed from their post until it is established if they are guilty or innocent. Exactly the position we have in these cases.
    That is why the police officer was suspended and that should be an example of then correct procedures. Instead, Sunak - the perpetual wrong doer - is trying to tuff things out in the vein hope that this incident will brush over, just like all the previous cases where Tory miscreants have got away with wrong doing.
    Hardly any surprise therefore that large sections of the public are very dissolutioned with politics in general and particularly the Tories where this type of behaviour is common place and where it currently looks to be about to cause a Labour landslide victory. If that does happen then the Tories have only themselves to blame.
    Personally, I would like them to get zero seats, loose most if not all of their deposits and find themselves in the political wilderness😮😮😮

If he knew/thought they were innocent, he'd be shouting that from the roof tops.

      @TizerWales 2 месяца назад

      ​@gillb9222 I get it that people struggle with this, but you don't get the highest level of taxation, highest level of debt, highest level of debt to GDP ratio with LOW public sector spending. On the contrary. A couple of examples for you. Greece and France; the latter whose debt to GDP is currently over 110%. The UK is not that far behind. That's how we know socialist policies are being followed and why the productivity of the UK is tanking. The Conservatives outdo Labour on the socialist scale. Incidentally, look at Europe. Socialism is killing it with all the money printing. And you do know what causes inflation, dont you? But people in Europe are waking up.

    • @gillb9222
      @gillb9222 2 месяца назад +2

      @TizerWales absolutely disagree with you. All public services have been cut to the bone, more people are living in poverty than ever before and the whole taxation system is set up to benefit the rich with the poorer members of society paying far more proportionally than those on higher incomes.
      I think you may need to review your political understanding

    • @TizerWales
      @TizerWales 2 месяца назад

      ​@@gillb9222My understanding is spot on, thank you. Never has so much money been spent on public services and the public sector as it is now. Take the NHS - which I hate to do, but it sucks more money than ever and productivity is in decline. Have you seen the waiting lists for hospital and GP appointments? You can't simply print more money or tax the wealthy more in the hope the problem fixes itself. It doesn't work like that. Junior doctors are due to go on strike soon. Will productivity improve because they get another £20k a year? I don't think so. Same with all public services. It is purely wealth distribution but the train crash is easy to see. The money is running out to feed it, and all those wealth creating people in the economy are giving up. Look at the high streets. So the socialist answer is what the conservatives have been doing: taxing people more and borrowing. Please revert to my earlier post to help you understand that and its implications.

    • @TizerWales
      @TizerWales 2 месяца назад

      ​@gillb9222 My political understanding is spot on, thank you. Firstly, you seem to be confusing public services with poverty; thus enforcing the ideology that pumping more money into the public sector resolves poverty. I hate to be the one to tell you, but it doesn't. You use the word 'proportionately'. Proportionately to what exactly? The amount people expect the state or others to look after them? The amount of work that someone has to put in to make the wealth and better themselves as well as others? The amount of tax people pay? Or, even the amount of sacrifice people make to actually take control of their own lives and make a living?
      The public sector had never had so much money pumped into it. Have you seen the statistics on waiting lists for operations, GP appointments, and NHS dental appointments? How many people does the NHS employ?
      So the answer is higher salaries, and more people is it? The junior doctors are due to go on strike soon. For what? More money. Will giving them more money improve things? I'll let you answer that.
      So socialism will fix all the poverty, will it? Think about this. Most councils are Labour run. They don't want their salaries and pensions to be diluted by giving everyone a house and state benefit. If they did, they would sell off all of their assets to pay for them. Wouldn't they? You think I'm playing with you? Are you aware that the public sector owns getting on for 9% of the land in England? Selling that would provide a handsome income to solve poverty. No? The local authorities alone in England and Wales own about 1.3M acreas of land. Now, I wouldn't mind one or two of those, but do you think they are keen to sell them?
      Wake up. Socialists like it the way it is. Control.
