No sooner did we rid ourselves of the crony Conservatives than it turns out the Labour PM, his wife and senior ministers accepted clothing and spectacles from donors. Not to mention all the football tickets and so on.
Never mind that they declared the gifts. The point is that they thought it okay to seek or accept them in the first place - at a time when others can't afford new clothing of their own - from political donors.
Never mind that BoJo and his cronies did far worse and without declaring it. Starmer and Reeves promised an end to all that.
And it's all so petty!
I mean, if Britain's Prime Minister can't buy his own specs and a half decent suit, how easily could he be bought by really big donors...?
Look for Tory rorts that never get scrapped, like freeports...
Never mind that they've ended the free-clothing practice - that merely demonstrates the greed and stupidity of doing it in the first place.
