It’s all just distractions and whilst anyone technically in the wrong etc etc - she’s not the first and she’s not going to be the last.

This is one of the reasons why they are all the same - another being they will all say anything to get in power and then back track the second they get through the door

But none of this matters - it’s the policies that matter. This, like the wording of the manifesto is just a distraction

Times reporting that her employer at the time Aviva reported her to cops after she claimed multiple phones had gone ‘missing’. Fun fact, she was Policing Minister under Corbyn
So is it one phone or multiple ?, do you really get a conviction for fraud for reporting a phone as being stolen and then finding it again and would a company like Aviva really report an employee to the police if it was just that ?. Truth will come out at some stage.

They're not all the same, Labour aren't gunning to be the UK arm of Trumpism. If anything the gap has widened

Just far enough away from LDC
OK, when she joined Starmers shadow cabinet then in 2020.
Hence my point, we don't know if she advised JC and thought she didn't need to tell KS. We don't know if she advised both but maybe didn't cover everything. So it's all just conjecture

Agree. And I don't understand this view that on tax they have gone back on what said pre election.

In some respects they really are all the same - namely saying one thing in opposition and another once in government
Yep and the spot light will shine so well on them that there is plenty more to come.
Can you image if some on here became MPs and got into government, just think of the dark secret stories that would appear all over X within a few days!

It just said on BBC Radio 2 10am news (so it must be true) that she told Starmer everything prior her appointment to the Shadow Cabinet, so why go now?
Interesting, what is just as interesting the Vernon on radio 2 this morning was confessing his frozen pizza throwing antics at uni parties back in the day, it will be extremely hard cheese if he gets the axe for this.

The tax rises will affect working people, contrary to the manifesto.
The manifesto was clear that Labour would not increase national insurance (and it was clear that this referred to the reductions in employee NI the last govt introduced i.e. paid by "working people"), the basic, higher or additional rates of income tax, or VAT (the three biggest revenue-generating taxes). They haven't (at least not yet). Employer NI, IHT etc had no such pledges.
