“A Scandal Long In The Brewing” | Keir Starmer DROPS 26 Points In Popularity Poll

Keir Starmer's popularity has dropped by 26 points according to a popularity poll.
This comes after the Prime Minister defended receiving thousands of pounds worth of suits and glasses from Lord Alli, but he has now since U-turned on his position and said he will no longer accept free clothing.
Chancellor Rachel Reeves and deputy PM Angela Rayner, will also stop accepting clothing gifts, senior Labour figures said.
Starmer faced criticism after it was revealed Lord Alli had donated £16,435 worth of work clothing and glasses, along with £5,000 in clothes for the PM's wife, Victoria.
Starmer had previously stated the donations were within the rules and properly declared but avoided addressing why he didn’t buy his own clothes.
Cristo and Dr Renee Hoenderkamp host a head-to-head debate with political commentator Jonathan Lis and former government adviser, James Dowling.

Doctors, nurses, police officers, fire officers, care workers, none of these who do a far harder job are not allowed to take gifts so why should politicians be allowed to accept gifts.

MP's Freebies should be capped at £3000 per year Maximum and should be immediately declared otherwise they should be made to pay it back, Starmer gives everyone the idea that he is a scrounger and no-one gives out £107k over a period of time and expects nothing in return.

Both of those male commentators are clueless. Freebies should be scrapped for all MP's. They are on a good wage and are paid enough.
