    More Tory ridiculousness. And, questions over character, security implications and common sense. If Wagg is scared regarding something so ridiculous then he’s not suitable, nor has the character to be an MP, and there should be doubts regarding some of the others who took the bait.

      I think we underestimate what kind of world these MP`s live in. It`s Lalaland with a lot of sex, power and money thrown around. If you watch debates in parliament you can see the behavior of Eton school boys in full display. They are born into that priviledged world and enter it with full force when they are 8 or 11 and don`t ever leave it. For them it`s all a game, it`s theater. None of the decisions they make really impact themselves because they are so wealthy and priviledged. Accept something like their own wages which they make sure go up.
      For them their jobs are just a fun sport with parties, unofficial hookers and connections to all kind of important people included.
      I am happy Politics Joe talks a bit more openly how it actually looks like in reality.

      It`s not just falling for a scam. They clearly live in a world where they only meet women who use sex as a bargaining chip, as Eva said. No woman wants a dickpic of a stranger. Most women don`t want any dickpics of anyone. If they think such a request is normal they only ever deal with unofficial sex workers and think that`s normal life. I don`t see how they couldn`t be terrible misogynists in these circumstances.
