Do you want to discuss boring politics? (167 Viewers)

[Grendel]

So Grendel finds the PM getting free food while refusing to feed hungry kids funny? Cool. Just so we're clear on what kind of person he is.

It’s absurd he has to dodge rules on ordering food. In most western countries he’d have a far far better residence and many are paid a lot more and also have their own private chefs paid for.

It’s symptomatic of a wider issue that the leader of the country is underpaid and undervalued compared to many of his peers

Well you didn't deny it, at least you're honest I suppose.

I need a new job. When I’m at work I have to feed myself. I always thought that was normal but apparently I’m the odd one out.

There are free food initiatives everywhere under this government, including meal vouchers and butler running. Can't you just use the foodbanks if you're struggling?

It’s absurd he has to have someone tell him what to eat when he’s leader of the country

He should have a Michelin chef and an advisor - I’m not even joking the U.K. needs to get out of this 1970’s view of its leaders

David Cameron was fine eating sardines on toast, does boarding at Eton not teach you a few life skills?

The PM gets 800 quids worth of takeaways delivered every week, doesn't even lay for some of it. Meanwhile refuses to feed starving kids.

Grendel: 'the PM isn't paid enough'

There are many on this board whose views I completely disagree with but I am sure they are decent people. Not Grendel. Genuinely a nasty, bitter old man who is happy to pull up the ladder and see those beneath him struggle, ideally while a toff gets free takeaways for life.

Oh dear lord, how will he cope on his *checks notes* £160,000 per year salary (plus expenses)?

You keep notes on the pay rates of Cabinets and MPs?

I suppose repressing feelings and avoiding unwanted nighttime buggery are skills technically.

Cringe. Politician fanboys are creepy. This is worse than those Corbyn poems.

Are you also suggesting that the Bullingdon Dining Club wasn’t actually about cooking?

No I’m pointing out a basic fact that the Prime Minister - who is our head of state - is paid significantly less than his counterparts across the West and many have gyms saunas cinemas and personal chefs as part of the deal

Yesterday you were droning on about India - why don’t the Indian government purchase equipment rather than get it for free

I’m certainly not bitter it’s you that has some Wolfie Smith tub thumping idea of how the world is run. You actually come across as some bloke in his eighties whose “voted Labour all me life”

Says it all that you're more concerned that he doesn't get a gym and sauna than about the rampant corruption. Fucking hell.


And I'm 31 and I've voted Labour once in my life.

 

[Grendel]

The Queen is not a decision maker and does not represent the country in any talks with other world leaders - our PM is exactly the same status as Merkle macron and Biden. She is a figurehead the same as all other Eu countries with royalty though it is worth noting I believe that the French PM also is paid more than ours even though it’s a far less important role

Johnson runs the country and if you undervalue the job who limit the talent pool who wants it

You’re just objectively wrong to say the PM is the head of state when he isn’t. We pay the royal family very well indeed and put them up in fabulous privilege for the ceremonial role they serve. Macron and Biden are elected executive heads of state unlike Johnson

I’m talking in relative terms of responsibility - Johnson has all the powers and responsibility that they have.

His role should be paid a lot more, MPs generally are underpaid

We all know you have a sixth form approach to the monarchy but she isn’t attending g7 summits she’s opening a fete in Hastings

 

[SBT]

Hardly surprising that Grendel would take a firm line on takeaways, the guy’s moobs alone must be two of the largest Tory constituencies in the country.

Flattered but not interested pal. Keep the ideas coming though - you’ve got to keep yourself in the game somehow, even if it has to be vicariously through the younger and thinner types like me.

When the costs of the monarchy factor in security they require a 9 figure sum to maintain. Bin them off and Boris can have all the Michelin star chefs and Grendel fluffers he can shake a small stick at

The queens role is entirely unique and as a result most acknowledge she is superb and the best in the world at what she does

She is the head of state though-do you accept being completely wrong on that one?

Anyone can shake hands and eat banquets in a palace. Only a complete and utter fool like Charles could screw it up

G what do you feel is an appropriate salary for an MP aid you consider them underpaid.

Secondly does that mean you believe your favourite MP Zarah Sultana should be paid more?

They have executive authority to sign off on legislation, he does not. Biden is also commander of the armed forces, again Johnson doesn't have that authority.

nonsense the Queen always will obey the government of the day as the day she doesn’t is the day the monarchy ends

In what way?
