Exactly.why. There are rules and protocols that MPs should adhere to. And yes, clearly a lot of them don’t in so many of the things they do.
such a minor issue.

It's stupid though. If they allowed replies it would all sit under that tweet. Instead people quote tweet replies and get more engagement.This policy from Twitter is stupid. A lot of people in these positions saying lies however no one is allowed to respond to challenge them.
WTF is he talking about. It's not subsidy based on ideology, or even human decency on the part of the Government. It's more akin to the bailout of the banks, designed to keep the market economy going.
There’s a misplaced comma in that statement which is really annoying me. Also the 7th paragraph is terribly written and contains grammatical mistakes.Tweet

State. Tory logic has always been socialism for businesses and capitalism for the people.
State of these Tory MPs.Tweet

It doesn't even work as a logical argument.Seems to be a running theme with the Tories. 'Stop being mean/loud Labour, or we'll reject everything.' Pathetic response, it's really disgusting.

Phil Davies. Known for not only consistently reducing all benefits of any kind for anyone, but also not supporting VAT rises or fair pay for anyone who makes less than £150k a year. So I'm not sure how he intends for people to be able to pay for it themselves.Tweet

They're either the biggest narcissists on the planet or they're using typical bully tactics. Being Tories I wouldn't be surprised if it's both.The absolute gall of this. After all of the stuff their MPs have said including recent comments about do good lawyers. Pathetic. It’s obvious these comments are related to their vote on free school meals and they are gaslighting.

Tbh we don't pay anywhere close to enough to attract the top talent to become mp's given the nature and responsibilities of the roll ... thats probably half the problem as to why we end up with the quality of mps we haveWhat I find astonishing is that they consistently have opportunity to win some kind of goodwill or at least not damage their reputation further, yet they don’t give a shit enough even for that.
To think getting a 3 grand pay rise during of all of this was a good idea is just so incredibly disrespectful to the country.
I know that’s old news now but I can’t stop thinking about how ridiculous it is. They could’ve made a song and dance about not doing so. You’d think they’d be clambering to get some good press, anything, but nope, not a single feck was given.

MPs pay is set by IPSA and I'm not sure there's a mechanism to reject it without fundamentally rewriting the role of IPSA.What I find astonishing is that they consistently have opportunity to win some kind of goodwill or at least not damage their reputation further, yet they don’t give a shit enough even for that.

Hmm not sure I agree with that. Attraction to money is surely one of the issues with MPs at the moment.Tbh we don't pay anywhere close to enough to attract the top talent to become mp's given the nature and responsibilities of the roll ... thats probably half the problem as to why we end up with the quality of mps we have
Because it goes against parliamentary procedure and they strive to maintain all of the historic practices possible so they can pretend they're dignified people. It's nothing but a veneer of prestige but when you don't have to worry about normal things - like keeping a roof over your head or working a job with low wages and high risk of being held accountable for your actions - you have the luxury of being concerned with this sort of bullshit without actually caring about following through with anything other than a thin veil of it. Sort of like when you hear that someone like Jacob Rees Mogg talking about his Christian beliefs when, at the same time, giving the middle finger to the poor.The tories literally are scum though. Can't see how they can complain about that one.
