A Labour MP spent more on a birthday party than the annual state pension her constituents have to live on all year. Just let that sink in for a moment.
@Tony-zf4wy Surely the whole point is that donors spent the money and NOT the Labour MP who would not otherwise have spent that kind of money? It was not public money as is the State pension either. Also it clearly wasn't some rip-roaring 'knees-up' as Phillipson made clear, she used the events to promote the Labour Party to various stake holders.
14 grand for a 40th birthday party !!!!! They are so self absorbed, so entitled, me, me ,me. Whilst they piss up the backs of pensioners and tell them it's raining. Do people honestly think that those who volunteer to run the country aren't going to do it to benefit themselves.
I'm a nice guy. I'm kind. I try to help people when I can. But unexplainably, nobody has ever thrown me a £14,000 birthday party. Maybe this is because I do not have political influence to sell. Phillipson seems to believe she can gaslight the nation, because she thinks we are all very stupid.
£14,000 for 40th birthday event seriously? I had my 40th on a budget due to earning low wages at the time! Totally out of touch and making excuses for greed!
Here we witness the utter arrogance of yet another Labour MP on the receiving end of freebies, absolutely shameful given the despicable act of cutting winter fuel allowance for pensioners. What an immoral bunch of MP’s we currently have running the country. It seems little has changed since 2009 when the likes of self righteous Yvette Cooper were caught up in the 2009 MP’s expenses scandal.
Fascist economics. The media needs to stop being complicit and start educating people that all mainstream parties follow fascism. They need to educate people what that system actually means and stop pretending it's something completely different and cultural (it's an economic ideology) so people are tricked into believing we don't follow it
It won't be long and they'll be getting donations from food banks next so they will never have to pay for shopping again well the poor people will be left with nothing just like the heating of the elderly
Fascist economics through and through. These people genuinely see themselves as superior to the citizens..it's how they justify working for big business and the rich, not the people
Well done to Trevor and Sky TV, these politicians need to be held accountable. That this lady thinks 14,000 is Ok to throw on a birthday bash, regardless of the invite list shows how out of touch she is with Joe Public.
No no no.Youre obviously wrong.She didnt have a birthday party.She hosted an "event".An "event" that she received £14000 to throw.An "event" that people attended,and gathered around,that just happened to occur around her birthday,but didnt have a "party".Its all clear now isnt it?
What's corrupt about receiving and declaring LEGAL donations? I agree politicians shouldn't be given donations whatsoever, but that's the system we've agreed to. Funny how I don't hear these complaints about Tories, particularly Boris Johnsons UNDECLARED donation of £100,000 for wallpaper.
The way she smiles about spending £14000 because it was her birthday ! I mean they have robbed the most vulnerable from our society and she smiles. Pigs snouts and trough come to mind
They don't understand that accepting these donations is a very elitist thing to do. Labour hasn't represented the working class for about four decades.
What exactly does the (white English) working class want? Cos a lot of them voted for Thatcher, Major, Cameron & Johnson despite the fact that most of their economic policies benefited overwhelmingly economically upper middle class & upper class voters than them... We've just gone through 14 yrs of Tory Austerity which was more like punishment beating of younger non Tory voters who are actually working unlike Tory pensioners 🤷🏿♂️
@@henryb160 Arguably even further back. The story that Labour was founded by the working class and for the working class was always a myth. Sure some trade unions were involved in their founding (and no one is allowed to mention that some of those trade unions were segregated and white supremacist) but Labour was always about capturing and moderating the power of the working class, not giving voice to that power.
