Such a weird ad strategy. Places that are LD threats are hardly going to worry about this stuff. I do wish one wing of the party could do social properly.

An utter clown show

JRM is blatantly a Janus kind of guy.

Hands up, who here would still be in a job if they were caught watching porn on their phone, whilst in the middle of an important meeting.

There are literally no standards within this Government.

Satire is dead, there's nothing you could make up that this lot aren't capable of in real life!

Paul Raymond?

I think even he must give it a rest sometimes, else it'll fall off.

Shows how seriously they take their jobs, eh.

So first payslip since Sunak's spring statement and all that 'help' he's offering us... My take home pay is down. Nice one Rishi. Tell us again how you're cutting taxes for everyone.

If a teacher does it they’re usually banned from the profession never mind sacked.

Found that out the hard way did you?

A teacher mate of mine asked if I could put a warning on some of my what’s app group circulations ! He still opens them !!

Not defending the culprit and if it’s properly watching porn on the front bench then that’s just weird, however, if it’s opening a dodgy vid/link that’s been sent round I do see it a bit differently. Either way, as discussed yesterday, they shouldn’t be on their phones in the House anyway but everyone’s on them

Not quite but have attended a hearing of someone who did

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Johnson to admit he was at No 10 ‘Abba’ party — but only to conduct job interview

The Winner Takes It All is said to have boomed through the building at the lockdown-busting event

www.independent.co.uk

If his excuse is true, it doesn't reflect well on the fucking professionalism of government, does it!

He told all the guests that The Winner Takes It All and will get lots of Money!Money!Money! Although he was worried his little ruse migght be found out cos the party was a it loud cos he asked one of the 'applicant's Can You Hear The Drums, Fernando?

Thanks Tories for your help with the cost of living crisis, the reduction in pay due to the NI contributions will really help...

I don’t think I’d even need to be in an important meeting. If I got caught watching porn in my workspace I’d expect to lose my job.

I agree entirely. The CIPD seem to be making it more about it being sexism bullying and harassment in the workplace because of women being offended by it. So if no-one sees you it's alright is it? NO, NO and NO again! It's about the expected standards of behaviour in the workplace when you are supposed to be at work, not companies just defending themselves against a potential harassment suit!

I also struggle with certain radio presenters (Rachel Burden on 5Live being the worst culprit i have come across - fnarr!) who appear constantly to be checking their WhatsApp, Twitter and Instagram feeds while they are supposed to be working at presenting a radio programme that WE are paying her £210,000 a year for. It's only three hours a day, FFS. Put your personal devices away!!!

You must be reading your payslip wrong, little Rishi told us he's made the biggest tax cut for a quarter of a century.

Nearly a £1k a year I'm down. Only wage earner as my wife's a carer. We just about break even ever month but with rising petrol, energy bills, food bills, etc we can't really afford to lose £80 a month.

The Mail doubling down again. Why let a lie get in the way of a headline

I hope he sues them TBH. That’s shameful journalism

 

[PVA]

It's pathetic from the Mail. You can tell Dacre is back at the helm after the Tories tried and failed to get him in at the BBC.

 

[shmmeee]

This is amazing, the Mails headline on the day it’s complaining Starmer had cake:

They sometimes give that excuse, but she then drops into the conversation things about her walking football chums have said on the WhatsApp group. Not exactly cutting-edge journalism! She should be using official BBC accounts not her own. In my view, obviously. It blurs the boundaries of when she is being professional and when she isn't

* Sorry this is verging on going off-topic

Journalism!!!!!!l it’s a mouthpiece for the fuhrer

It's just more money extracted from the real economy ultimately

Yeah but the bosses of energy companies will sit about thinking “Ive got some spare money, I should create a job I have no economic need for to get rid of it” and maybe Stu can pick that up as a second job to make ends meet. Or something.

That graphic - hmm I wonder if there have been any changes in Republican ideology since 2017.
