Worst “harsh on @Pexbo” ever
Rats leaving the sinking ship. And a load of rats at that. What an utter disgrace of a so called government to just run away from their total mess.
I'm guessing this won't make The S*n's front page and that they've known about it for quite some time.
How can you just not do your job for a year and not tell the people you're working for? Only MPs could do this.
I remember the days when people used to argue that MPs weren't paid enough and therefore had to take second jobs to supplement their income. Turns out they could go full time in a second job because they don't even need to turn up for their primary one.

Both I suspect straight out of the 'Tory government in panic' playbook, when even the Minister for Defense is off on his bike.. its 'hit the Road' Rishi!!

Proud to represent the (Conservative) Party!
Healthcare, cost of living, struggling to pay bills? Nah feck that, let's talk about degrees,
Without giving a single example...
Surely rip-off rental markets, rip-off gas & energy prices, rip-off food & fuel pricing would be a higher priority?
He just likes the graphic and posting on social medial. Such a cnut.
None of the trade deals she's signed are of benefit to the UK, nor would an Indian or USA deal. "You don't know what you're doing!"
Oh good, another catchphrase.
It's as shite as his "make people do better English so they can speak gooder" as well as his one about improving maths and the eleventeen other distractions.

Didn't think I'd be at any risk of agreeing with Mark Francois about anything, but here were are.
No kidneys
She's gaming the system.
Twitter doesn't care whether you are laughing at her or calling her a moron, just as long as you are looking.
And she gets a share of the ad revenue. Easy for anyone with a relatively high profile now, and you will see a lot more of it.
