All he has to do is a quick google search “are landlords selling up” to find the correct answer and why. Unfortunately that will not satisfy his narcissistic narrative and he will continue to ignore the facts presented to him…

She will probably end up having to resign and then like Raynor, get a large pay out to compensate for loss of ministerial earnings to help pay towards her fine… assuming she’s issue with one.

So, Rushanara Ali, the UK's former homelessness minister, resigned after reports emerged that she evicted tenants from her east London property and then re-rented it at a higher price. Then we have the former Deputy PM Angela Rayner who ignored...

It’s deflection, blame someone else and hopefully you don’t get scrutinised yourself. Similar to divide and conquer etc

The last autumn budget was on the 30th October, the next one isn’t until the 26th November. The latest possible date. Why might that be?

Is this a sign of what is to come for the next four years? Speculation for two / three months prior to each budget of what doom and gloom tax burden will be imposed by Labour next, leading to individuals...
