  • Sir Keir Starmer has paid back over £6,000 worth of gifts and hospitality including tickets for Taylor Swift, racing tickets and clothing for his wife - all received since becoming PM. This has raised questions over whether other senior Labour MPs who have accepted freebies will now pay for them.

      Ok, very important lesson for anyone that doesn’t know this yet because most of Britain doesn’t. You cannot run a party in Britain without taking large donations. Those donations are simply legal bribes, obviously. That is why they all work for big corporations and the rich. Please remember that at all times to understand why things happen. And no need to be partisan either, all the parties are doing the same thing unless specifically campaigning against it.

    If you robbed a bank and got caught, and offered to give it back, you'd still be prosecuted. He won't be, but it doesn't change the fact that he is open to persuasion by gifts. Because we all know that if you recieve a gift, you have at the very least put yourself under an emotional pressure to the giver, to some degree. Its all the same thing with him and his team; they have no real moral fibre, and a total lack of sensible judgement, and seemingly a complete disregard for honesty in it's purest form. Add to that arrogance and self entitlement and delusional beliefs of thier superiority and infallability, and it makes for a disgraceful and potentially a dangerous team of leaders for our country. They don't seem to understand normal reasoning, and that any action has a reaction. You'd think anyone in thier positions would first of all know that accepting gifts is not a good idea, on so many levels, especially after they hounded the Conservatives so vocally for so long, so they knew very well what they were doing accepting gifts, they knew the probable outcome, and they did it anyway. A terrible weak government, who do not work for the legal citizens of the UK.

Indeed this questions the very reason why he took these gifts or grifts in the first place. PS. he never had or spent £6000 on glasses, he was given a lump of cash to do as he thought fit. But he has broken no rules (as far as we know)....

    None of these 'personal donations' cost the tax payer a penny so why all the fuss. If it's because politicians are much better paid than most of us and can well afford to 'pay their own way' that's understandable. Perhaps some good will come of this. If the rules allowed it and 'no rules were broken' a new set of rules prohibiting it would be good. Giving it back is also a good idea. Perhaps other politicians will follow suit (excuse the pun). It's all good. Let's focus on the positivity of the situation.
