Tom Harris bemoans the public’s attitude to politicians…
“Mr Oborne echoes the lazy, anti-politics whine we hear so often these days, all based on the absurd notion that politicians were once loved and only fell out of public favour during the expenses scandal. He should take a walk to the Strangers’ Bar. But not to sup with the patrons he seems to despise so much, dearie me, no; he should instead look at the paintings on the corridor outside the bar, which depict the devastating fire which consumed most of the Palace in 1834. And he should reflect on the fact that on that dramatic night, as the Commons went up in flames, a crowd gathered on the South Bank to clap and cheer.”
Harold Macmillan says:
” Evans, dear boy, Evans “
A living wage or a market wage?
However, he’s right about Diversity staff – they’re a pestilence.
What do they do to earn £120,000?!
Diversify?
Seriously, I think the job entails making sure preferential treatment is given to non-white non-British people.
In the name of ‘equality’.
whats more important food or diversity trainers?
tho it would be worse if Presscot was a diversty officer!
Those manual labour types are a bit too diverse. Diversity Director only relates to chai latte vs rooibos tea.
LSE : de Longer dey Subvert Education, diverse it gets.
O/T
Tried to reply to above post, found that mobile-phn txt entry auto-completes “rooibos tea”.
This gross pretentiousness will consume us all. And the Chinese will take us out, whilst we weakly fight back hitting them with (Chinese) iPads.
A sunny weekend usually finds me in Diversity Park. Chomping Khat with the Joery.
Remember, those working class types are a bunch of Express-reading oiks who just need the right marketing. Engender a bit of hatred, that’ll get them voting Labour again.
All those years of being shat over by the previous Labour government and still no living wage. That is disgusting?
How many millions has Tony Bliar made from innocent blood in the Middle East? Hmmm? He is still counting. That is disgusting?
Go and work in china for a while, we will all appreciate the minimum wage then…
You go and work in China for a while, we will all appreciate the rise in average IQ.
Minutes from labour high & mighty command
What centre socialist bollocks shall we make up so we can get our snouts where they belong
Blue bullshit
Err, except LSE does pay it’s staff the London Living Wage…

You can read about the award they got from… Citizens UK on that website.
Glassman needs to stop being senile.
“its staff” not “it’s”
No it’s, no buts, no education cuts
And repeat
“LSE does pay it is staff the London Living Wage” ??
It may pay its staff the living wage but if the cooks / guards are agency staff they could still be getting less
