He’s spot on. When I was in the army using a public funded fuel card for military vehicles we were even banned from collecting fuel related loyalty points

To think, there would be many quite rightly foaming at the mouth if this was Boris Johnson. Incredibly he isn’t even in the top 10. The only think that’s changed with this Government compared to the last is the colour of their ties

It's not about the political system benefitting us, it's about the political system benefitting them. That's from top to bottom.

To be fair Labour could possibly be criticised for accepting donations from this Company due the the Business Sectors it invests in The Company itself shouldn't receive any criticism for its Tax Affairs because more than £100M of it "Profits" are "Unrealised" but are due to Revaluation of Assets and when sold will be subject to tax As you are probably aware Peston is receiving pelters on X for his selective Tweeting of this "Story" and the £4M Donation but was largely silent on the £4Bn of unusable PPE which was burned supplied in large part by Tory Donors via the VIP Lane. Even some of the Donors are not subject to criminal investigation .... yet.

You'd think he could run to a couple of suits from Zara!
He's declared more in gifts than the average wage.
I'm enjoying seeing him with some serious heat on his jacksy after all the self righteous tosh he dished out in opposition.

A man who has never known hunger can never have empathy for the poor. A man on an income of over £100,000 per year has his clothes bought for him,but cuts a pensioners heating allowance whilst retaining his own £3,400 per year heating allowance. Socialism is a glorious thing.

It's not about the political system benefitting us, it's about the political system benefitting them. That's from top to bottom. I believe you have made this point before, apologies if not. If something is an illusion it means it's a deceptive representation of something that previously existed. Where, When? Democracy or the version as practised in UK is imperfect but unless you can provide an example of where Democracy or a different system of Governance is better somewhere else it's just a soundbite without offering any solution. If you expand I'd most likely agree. The extremities of Free Will are Determinism, Compatibilism and Libertarianism where are these practised and if adopted do you think they would be a better system. I believe you opted out of the last GE, a legitimate position to take, again apologies if I got that wrong as well. I understand what you dislike but I don't understand practically what it is you would change and how, again mea culpa's if you have already explained.
