Anyone for Lunch? It's on expenses

Tory MP?Lee Anderson? [ basic annual salary of a Member Of Parliament (MP) in the House of Commons is £84,144 ] has no idea what socialism in 2023.

Has he read Down and Out in Paris and London?by George Orwell, published in 1933. It is a?memoir?in two parts on the theme of poverty in the two cities. It's target audience was the?middle- and?upper-class?members of society—those who were more likely to be well educated—and it exposes the?poverty?existing in two prosperous cities:?Paris?and?London. The first part is an account of living in near-extreme poverty and?destitution?in Paris and the experience of?casual labour?in restaurant kitchens. The second part is a?travelogue?of life on the road in and around London from the?tramp's perspective, with descriptions of the types of?hostel?accommodation available and some of the characters to be found living on the margins. Anderson was age shaming Carol Voderman and defending this out of touch with reality government with his claims on TV, he may need to read some Yuval Noah Harari to understand nationalism and how the National Social Party became The Nazi Party. Instilling hatred in the population will in fact create a full circle of extreme socialism. Poor people in France will not just take the crap imposed on them by Emmanuel Macron who viewers spotted removing his “luxury” watch midway through an interview over his fiercely contested pension changes. Off with their heads. The tory party are creating THE DIVIDE and fueling extreme hatred and racism are 2nd generation immigrant MPs. The people are ignoring security at shops and just helping themselves to bags of goods, cars are stripped of parts, bikes are chainsaw removed in daylight, crimes are ignored by police saying get insurance and profits for shareholders of stock market companies are sky high for fuel, heating, food and essentials. So £9,99 for a steak dinner added to your expense claim The Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority has revealed that Workington Conservative MP Mark Jenkinson claimed £249,881.63 in business costs during the 2020-21 financial year and Westmorland and Lonsdale MP Tim Farron claimed £249,444.28.

These are the highest costs for Cumbria’s MPs. By comparison, Darren Henry, a Tory MP for Broxtowe, had costs of £280,900 last year, while Philip Hollobone, the member for Kettering, had just £80,700. On average MPs claim £203,880.Kit Malthouse was the most expensive MP attending the Cabinet in 2020-21, with total costs of £244,312. This was compared to £178,406 for Prime Minister Boris Johnson and £168,109 for Sir Keir Starmer. The total costs of MPs last year rose by four per cent to £132.5 million, with almost £300,000 going on hotel claims for just 49 members.

LinkedIn is a b2b platform, this is where we say what we do and how we can do it and the odd pat on the back for achievements but leave politics out of it if you want corporate bookings. Back in the 90s Bush and Blair invited Cool Britannia to No10 and the working classes newfound fame and money don't turn it down but in 2022 Pink Floyd Roger Waters voices on stage or U2 in America or? Any pop stars raising their voices are CANCELLED Noel Gallagher?has said he still thinks Tony Blair is “great” and “the last person who made sense” after he became a close ally of the former Prime Minister during the mid-1990s. Just shows you what I know what any of us know because TikTok knows is telling us more than the BBC what do we know. All I know is George Orwell books I read as a working class lad in a juvenile institution who only loved music , not sport , history or maths I wanted to be in a band and by 22 years I was in a few punk bands 1 in Scotland The Skids 1 with an Ex Se Pistol and I saw the whole of the UK after the unions were crushed and Thatcher and Murdoch convinced the poor that buying your own home paying council tax and living in Mandela Towers one day Rodney This time next year well be millionaires was in fact all lies Tory lies , The Tories just lie lie lie and 7 newspapers and the BBC are all Tory. The great British public know Lee Anderson and every Tory MP is just another in the long list of liars. Time for lunch on expenses of course [ Paid for by the great unwashed ] John Lennon Lennon who unlike Noel might have turned down the invitation to No 10 he also returned his OBE and MBE "I am returning my MBE as a protest against Britain's involvement in the Nigeria-Biafra thing, against our support of America in Vietnam. 2023 Pink Floyd's Roger Waters speaks of his anger following last weeks latest Assange proceedings:

"Our voices will become louder and louder and louder until Julian Assange is set free" because "If we no longer have a voice, we're done" #FreeAssangeNOW @rogerwaters

musicians may well be the last voices to reach the people and music has joined many together and The Specials recorded

Free Nelson Mandela

21 years in captivity

Shoes too small to fit his feet

His body abused but his mind is still free

Are you so blind that you cannot see? I said

Free Nelson Mandela, I'm begging you

The choice at the next election is a lesser of 3 evils. Which is why It's important artists use their art to hold up a mirror to society.
