I worked in the financial services sector for nearly 2 decades as an IT specialist (not a banker!). Regulatory compliance is top of the agenda. We had regular training and testing to ensure our compliance. This became more important in the wake/aftermath of the credit crunch. Two things infuriate me with this Rachel Reeves nonsense. Number one is that these "donations" are indeed technically bribes. Secondly as the head of the treasury/HMRC she should be fully endorsing what the tax office seek to penalise all tax payers for, and that's tax avoidance and the acquisition of cash or any other items of personal benefit during the course of work without paying the due tax. Ie any items of personal nature are treated as a taxable benefit in kind. It therefore beggars belief that these taxable benefits in kind which are also bribes should be allowed by the government and actively entertained by the chancellor! Perhaps every tax payer should ignore the taxation and anti bribery regulation in the country then? There's no room in the prisons as it is so there will be certainly no room for every single tax payer! 🤣
In Singapore this is considered corruption, a cabinet minister had to resign recently for accepting tickets to football games etc by a billionaire. The minister in charge is currently sentenced to 12 months in jail for the offence. Zero tolerance for corruption.

Are you getting the impression that Starmer, Rayner, Reeves and Co. are both socially and politically inept because they are just not very bright ? With Labour's highest priority of growing the economy it's time to redeploy their top financial genius - Dianne Abbot.
Makes my blood boil. As a public servant, in my role, I can be dealing with people, in their houses for hours at a time. I am told not to even except a cup of coffee in case its seen as a bribe, or a promise of something…..two tier and outrageous that MP’S can accept thousands of pounds worth of clothes.
Labour received a 4 million donation from hedge funds with interests in weapons, private health care, and fossil fuels. The timing of the donation is controversial. Quadrature Capital made the contribution just before the start of the ‘pre-poll reporting period,’ delaying its public disclosure until months after Labour’s electoral victory. This has sparked accusations of deliberate efforts to minimise scrutiny during a critical election period. Suits and dresses while still optically bad for the party pale into insignificance when they are taking huge sums from such people who trade in wars.
No you don’t get it, you are taking money away from poor people and accepting huge treats when you can afford to pay for your own clothes.
They were donations, nothing to as taken from the poor and no tax payers money was used.
If you are in a 500k asset and you are accepting £250 quid towards your heating you are immoral.

@jackflash8756 • Given that Labour's own figures suggested that removing the heating allowance would likely result in the deaths of 4,000 pensioners this winter, I think Reeves and Starmer are quite prepared to risk pensioners getting ill or dying. In fact, I believe they're banking on it!
We rely on donors rather than the taxpayers? So would the taxpayers be paying for her clothing if she didn't have donors?
If these people need "rules" to make them behave morally then they are obviously the wrong people for the job.
what an effin car crash lol
Unbelievable!!!!when she looks back at that interview she will see how poor she came across
She was hoping for.... "Hello Chancellor, well done on your victory. Those Tories were bad, weren't they?"
stutter, stutter, stutter....Oh my god what shall I say? How can I talk about anything except the questions asked. Maybe I should follow Kiers example and just keep shouting 22 billion deficit so I don't have to show what a grasping, hypocrite I really am...
What a hypocrite
Rock on Richard and susanna they always change the subject
I applaud Suzanne & Richard with this discussion. Don't give up. The pensioners need a voice
Are you getting the impression that Starmer, Rayner, Reeves and Co. are both socially and politically inept because they are just not very bright ?
With Labour's highest priority of growing the economy it's time to redeploy their top financial genius - Dianne Abbot.
And very evasive and hypocritical
😂😂😂😂
You’re telling me she can’t afford to buy her own clothes what a joke
Times are difficult for MPs
Come on, come, be fair to the lady, she has said that she doesn't like shopping! And if you believe that, you'll believe anything.
Yeah it's just us weirdos who work and buy clothes with our salary 😂
Wealthy people have never got enough. They always want more and feel justified in getting more.
Who’s this ‘friend who wanted to ‘support her’ ?
Makes my blood boil. As a public servant, in my role, I can be dealing with people, in their houses for hours at a time. I am told not to even except a cup of coffee in case its seen as a bribe, or a promise of something…..two tier and outrageous that MP’S can accept thousands of pounds worth of clothes.
Buy your own clothers
Well done Suzanna....she couldn't give a straight answer ...they all lie
Labour received a 4 million donation from hedge funds with interests in weapons, private health care, and fossil fuels.
The timing of the donation is controversial. Quadrature Capital made the contribution just before the start of the ‘pre-poll reporting period,’ delaying its public disclosure until months after Labour’s electoral victory. This has sparked accusations of deliberate efforts to minimise scrutiny during a critical election period.
Suits and dresses while still optically bad for the party pale into insignificance when they are taking huge sums from such people who trade in wars.
Bet they are after " helping support" the NHS. It would be a good topic to give senior Labour people a grilling over
Beware the smiling assassin
Good questioning
