Union Funded Labour MPs Organising Against Pilgrim Vote
After his OpEd in the Telegraph this morning, Tory MP Jesse Norman will put down at 10 Minute Rule Bill against Pilgrims immediately after PMQs on Wednesday:
Ten minute Rule Motion: Jesse Norman: Trade Union Officials (Refund of Pay to Employers): That leave be given to bring in a Bill to provide that pay for hours worked on behalf of trade unions by trade union officials during hours when they are paid by an employer should be refunded to the employer by the trade union; and for connected purposes.

Success with a 10 Minute Rule Bill is rare, but it should be a good reminder for the government about this issue in the run up to their promised consultation. Cameron has pledged to scrap taxpayer-funded trade union activity so it would be embarrassing for him if it were to fall. The union funded Labour MPs are having their thumbs screwed by the brothers to organise against the vote:

Subject: Ten Minute Rule Bill next Wednesday after PMQsDear Colleague,
You may be aware that the Conservative backbencher Jesse Norman MP is introducing a Ten Minute Rule Motion on Wednesday 11th January. It will be opposed by Labour MPs in the Chamber and it would be useful if you could be around to vote against. Its timing is subject to statements and PMQs but it will be the first piece of business after 12.30.
Regards,
Tony
Tony Lloyd MP
Manchester Central
What Tony doesn’t mention in his email is that he is the chairman of the Trade Union Group of Labour MPs.
The group greases the wheels for unions to manipulate legislation. They seem to be getting their money’s worth today…















Free trips to John Lewis and Wagamama are a right!

From Wiki
The Trade Union Group of Labour MPs is a British group representing all Labour Members of Parliament who are members of trade unions that are affiliated to the British Labour Party. The group meets regular to discuss issues related to trade unions, keeping members informed via a web based bulletin about such issues. Tony Lloyd the Member of Parliament for Manchester Central is its Chair.[
“For more information about the Trade Union Group of Labour MPs, please contact Frank Doran MP, Secretary of TUG: doranf@parliament.uk “
or get a life and dont bother with these wasters cos they support back stabbers
Doran has been in more seats than the man on the Clapham omnibus, no doubt his present constituents will give him the boot eventually. Of course these vermin wont support this bill, they wont willingly bite the hand that`s fed them AND given them their party leader. Labour = Unions = Labour.
Me an’ the Comrades do stirling work protecting da Workers from expolitation by the cruel and venal Employers ‘an stuff, so we are worth every penny we receive from the Taxpayer…
Sounds just like the firms that have a huge say about the
obscene payments given to the FUCKING SUITS !,
ie: the ‘funds’ (pensions) insurers (pensions) plus any
lickspittle suit ‘johnny cum lately’ that wishes to make
THE fast buck !!.
FUCK US ? FUCK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!
“the group meets regular…..”
’nuff said.
ToneB’Liar was a regular sort of guy
Absolutely right Jane, that is what taxes are all about. These campaigns to stop MP’s, Members of the Lords and the public sector from troughing will come to nothing. My old flatmate Bob Russel has been knighted for troughing and I am extremely annoyed about it, as it should have been me. I have been troughing for far longer and much deeper that Bob ever did. Perhaps they are lining me up for a peerage? I will have to talk to the Grand Master about it. Boaz.
Yes, Brother, you are being considered for a Life Peerage. We believe your “barony” should be one named after a town on the South Coast. Thus, we believe you will be styled “Baron Hancock of Bognor.” “Lord Bog” seems somehow felicitously apt.
No need to worry Our Ed’s on the side of the tax payer here , you watch
I’m becoming increasingly worried about my Labour poodles shooting themselves in the foot. Dedward Miliband seems to be increasingly skilled at this as is the massively fat black poodle.
That’s strange I thought that the Christian Democrats were the German equivalent of the Tory party
You thought wrong, Nu Labour / Blu Labour / Lie Dem’s / Coabullshitters, are all servants to the EU and it’s master, Germany and it’s owners, the banks.
Any of my labour hoes step outer line the bitches gonna get slapped up by the big boss
No that’s not Ed he’s just another bitch
I always thought TUG was slang for wank – ergo, Trade Union Group of MPs – Wankers
so they are so in hock to the unions that they want to screw taxpayers in the private sector to fund a nurse who desnt well er nurse.
Public service or gravy train?
so finally you get it
next thing they will be onto security guards who sit in their booths all day playing with themselves and making moronic comments on the internet instead of doing a real job
LOL
Is Billy sulking?
If only Gordon had just sat there playing with himself instead of destroying the country – we would all be much better off. So don’t knock it – I’d be doing the same if only it paid as well
He probably did, whilst the current shadow cabinet busied them selves with destruction.
Johann Hari is the greatest journalist ever.
He`s also a right fat c*nt.
Tony Lloyd – another name to remember for the future.
The guy is trying to get noticed, he thinks call me Dave has not noticed him
Just like windfarms & climate change, immigration, the EU, MPs expenses, high fuel prices & high taxes Heathite Dave Cameron will spectacularly & loudly do nothing about Pilgrims.
Vote UKIP.
+1. Although not a member of any branch of liblabcon, it seems to me that it has been obvious for some years that Dave and his team are there to do exactly what you say they will do. The membership seem content to let him motor on with what amounts to a champagne socialist’s agenda.
Anyone who seriously imagines that the agenda of the coalition is any different from Labour, both old and new, is in need of care in the community. At every turn the argument is not about policy, but how it should be managed.
Agree Cameron is a blow hard, sound bites, key note speeches but no actions. Add to you list his latest wheezes, rolling back the Health and Safety Culture and making people work for their benefits.
They are NOW very aware that their time is limited within the
political sphere, so you have Tony Blair (multi-millionaire),the ugly
guy who supposedly created ‘new labour’ (sorry,name escapes me)
‘got a small pile’ on Regents park (minted).
On my mothers grave i hope they all get the justice they deserve.
(YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE !!)
The declarations of interest prior to speeches should be good – I hope someone well informed will be check as they go…
MPs should stae when they come into parliament who was backing them, failure to disclose and if it is found out that they have omitted a backer they should lose their seat without an appeal
on’t hold your breath cos it will not happen
Actually hold your breath.
For lunch today I had a bottle of Chablis and some Gruyere. I always get great value from Tesco. Every little helps. I mean, every little chef helps himself.
I don’t have a TV so I am wondering whether AWT is a Beeboid celebrity chef?
Used to be bbc, now itv.
‘Former Kent schoolboy’. How are the mighty fallen.
http://www.kentnews.co.uk/news/former_kent_schoolboy_antony_worrall_thompson_caught_shoplifting_1_1172515?action=login&forgotpassword
If I were him, I’d claim I was doing research for a Channel 4 celebrity version of Les Miserables.
Am I the only one who thinks he looks a bit like Jean Valjean?
‘….Just for stealing a mouth full of bread…’
He’s always reminded me of a fat Van Gogh, so it’s a good job we haven’t yet got Sharia law or he might lose an ear for shoplifting…
first post was quite funny – each subseqeunt one becomes less funny
Twat
Billy. When there are no lorries waiting at the barrier you can get a broom and have a tidy up. You lazy little c’unt.
Billy – everyday you surpise me with what a Huhne you really are. Please don’t every go away!
I think we should have a contest to guess what “Billy Bowden is the greatest umpire ever ! ” really does for a job, cannot be doing much if he constantly posts on this blog, he does does give a bit mild amusement though
stones – greenhouses
Fake
Don’t worry – we can tell
Thanks – it is good to have some freinds with the regulars on here
@sel
Another fake just above.
That poor woman, she must be so regretting she ever opened this can of worms. Serves the b**** right!!
Can we have right to vote on MPs salaries & expenses?
If its good enough for shareholders of private & public companies it should be good enough for the shareholders (voters in UKPLC.
Afterall, we are sick of rewarding failure in public iffice: Gordon McMental & Lard prescott for one – I want their pensions back in the public coffers.
Can we vote for footballer’s salaries too then?
Or how about film stars?
It’s all private enterprise.
can we vote on benefits?
I thought we did at the last election. Alas. Did bugger all good.
At the very least, we should be able to vote for sensible pay levels for the council “chief executives” (read: jumped-up town hall clerks) who waste our council tax – are we not “stakeholders”?
I’d like nothing more than to see the scrounging bastards taken down to a sensible salary – about 40-60K is right for a town hall chief clerk, and if they don’t like it then they can take their “expertise” on the free market and see what jobs they get.
The trouble is, too many of them already do tout themselves to the free market: actually, the balck market, and rake in loads of tax-free envelopes on top of all the troughing.
Just like wind_farms & climate_change, im_migration, the E_U, MPs exp_enses, high fuel prices & high taxes Heat_hite Dave Cameron will spectacularly & loudly do nothing about Pilgrims.
Vote U_KIP.
Love to know which word keeps getting modded.
Is it Heathite or traitor?
It’s not a word that gets modded in this country its a phrase “freedom of speech”.
Another of Tony Bliar’s achievements ……along with mass immigration
Firstly, no more than 13,000 Poles will move to Britain, so there’s no threat to low-paid British workers’ jobs. Secondly, immigration will be very beneficial to this country. Just you wait, by 2010 the economy will be roaring away.
They weren’t lying. The economy roared all the way to the far east.
Check out the word pr1ce; it’s got r!ce in it which is almost as dirty a word as “pe4s”. Blame Fatbutt.
Lest the would-be Media Czars like a certain Billy Bunter lookalike propose legislation in Parliament to this effect making it mandatory, I believe all UK-serving websites fully disclose moderation policies in a click-on link on the home page; none of these “for: Length; Relevance; Personal Attacks” generalities. Let’s find out which certain words activate Guido’s ModBot. Let’s also find which opinions are taboo at certain websites maintained by certain birdcage liners, too, as long as we’re at it.
It is the word Lice as the Chinese would say in the middle of the other word for cost that Modbot doesn’t like Sophie…..
We’ve been wanting to post a comment for months
Us too.
So will the Livechat extend to cover the bill being presented?
please please please
Grow up.
Fake
Definite fake
I’m Spartacus’ willy
Will the real “Billy Bowden is the greatest umpire ever !” stand up please
If only we could register our name with e-mail address – all this fakery would stop
Do see why anyone is concerned, its only happening to me.
I hope no-one else has to put up with it.
Stop stealing my brand.
Willy, there , there don’t get upset, give as good as you get old lad, use another moniler if it worries you so much, no ones going to beat you up and its all anonymous, get a dictionary such as Word Web its free, check what you write ie preview, I very rarely do, hence little massages from bloggers telling me to check my entry before posting
What if, sadly, ALL “Billy’s” were Billy Bowden the Senior Security Officer and full-time Tweeter Ontablets, and this was all some strange “cry for help”?
Now the security officers know where a lot of secrets are hidden
He that pays the piper calls the tune, Isn’t that so Ed (the red).
Just remember what happens, though, when you DON’T pay the Piper.
Yeah, you marry Chris Evans, develope an alcohol addiction and get divorced within three months.
Using the Public Sector as a job creation scheme is not growth. Bankrupting the Nation in an orgy of crony capitalism to save financial institutions for party-political purposes is not growth either. Labour is not trusted with the economy, and statements like Dr. Clarke’s show the reason why.
I’m all with ‘Lord Freud of never been Elected’ – just shoot the poor and disabled – there’ll be a great saving to be had
If you suffocated the poor and disabled by putting plastic bags over their heads, you’d save on bullets.
Plus, the bags can be re-used.
It amazing the ideas people come up with studying poltics at the Sorbonne.
+1
Eoin? what sort of f*cking name, is that? Typical middle class leftie sc*m. I hope he gets b*mmed by a gay rugby team.
Any Labour MP voting to take front line public workers and put them on union duty should be named and shamed so voters can identify them.
That’ll be most of them then. Its not just the cash payments and the ‘seconded’ staff pretending to the interns you have to have a look at. See where they have their election leaflets printed.
The full awfulness of Tony Lloyd is here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Lloyd
Tony is similar to me; neither of us have done a ‘real’ job in the private sector throughout our entire lives.
It’s actually worse than I thought! I assumed Worrall shoplifted just once before being caught. Turns out he did it 5 times over 16 days! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-16465934
If they don’t want you to take why do they leave lying about in the shop?
Yeah and you`re both c*nts as well, are`nt you?
This is obviously a cry for help. Call in the social workers, give the man a larger flat, get him a new car, up his working family cheese credits, don’t you see how society has wronged this man?
Personally I can’t stand these plebs.
I only steal from Fortnum and Mason.
Ed, you’re supposed to be the Man of Steel. Not the Man that Steals.
And commit wholesale fraud on the taxpayer.
I smell a new book in the not too distant future…
It’ll be on Kindle and will smell of desperation.
Cooking With Pilfered Pilchards?
A very Anthony Christmas – How to enjoy stolen stollen?
With a pinch of salt – (and a few other pinched ingredients too.)?
Amazing Pastas with Palmed Parmesan?
Fucking corrupt Union puppets
You rang ?
I like cheese.
Pilgrims are productive members of society – for trade unions !
leeches are also used to heal patients – or used to be in the good old days
Just like those bands from the 1970′ and 80′s, they’re making a comeback:
http://www.leeches.biz/leech-therapy.htm
The site appears to have been rendered into English using something like Google Translate – how else to explain solecisms like ‘calcifying the containers’?
Leeches never really went away; they are bred commercially by the Danes and ‘milked’ for the anticoagulants in their saliva. A search on Google reveals that ‘leech fat’ has rather more, ahem, ‘intimate’ uses.
Same old Labour, support the Unions at any cost and let the British Taxpayer foot the bill! Labour bankrupted the coumntry but this won’t stop their quest to enrich the Unions’coffers.
I have one and you can’t take it away from me. You did say you want a clampdown on pig grins?
Gord, what you did was a grimace NOT a grin
Thanks for explaining your joke
Don’t forget Unions are not the only ones getting taxpayers funded perks add to list Association on Chief Police Officers.
and our prized MPs and civil servants
Guido old chap, I assume that will also apply to the Police Federation officials and other police quasi union groups
If that does go ahead personnel depts will suddenly having to do more work
Nemo me old lad get a grip. Tony Blair banned personnel departments it’s all Human Resources these days, more cutting edge…sexy, jackets off, no tie, designer stubble type stuff. They ‘Let people go’ so much more cool than firing people.
It’s the same old, what’s in a name, they didn’t do much anyway until it came to mass redundancies
C*un*t., fuck, titty wank……so what?
you talk a load of bollox mate
bolloxs bottoxs buttoxs
Louise Mensch: botox?
She has got a large bottom.
I swear by tourettes.
So do a lot of posters on this blog it would appear, just like the old newsgroups
There you are Sophie that is up for modding cannot see why though
It apeeeeeers you have mis-spelled a certain word containing veggy bits…
I bet Labour would be up in arms over tax payer funded Conservative lobbyists. It’s the same principle. There’s nothing honourable about being a union activist. Unions are special interest groups like anything else. Let them exist, but don’t expect taxpayers to fund them.
They sure would, selective racism for labour is o.k. though.
We want votes from people who don’t like j**s. Got a problem with that?
People who don’t like jobs?
I reckon that’s the only people who still vote for Labour. You’re preaching to the convalescent there.
Union membership seems to provide the right to take money. Pilgrims take money from employers. Union leraders take money from their members – lovely six figure salaries, and labour MPs take money from the union members.
Union membership, it’s a lose, lose, situation.
forgot to add that union members go out on strike because a tiny percentage vote to, then they lose money for not working. Union membership is for losers. Who are the winners, yes of course union leaders and pilgrims – nice work, thanks to the rank and file losers.
Serwotka, Prentis, Barber, and Crowe are no different to the bankers.
I was at a union meeting many years ago, admittedly the room was above a machine shop, very noisy, time came to vote, for and against, I heard one bloke say to the other “what did we vote for” you cannot make it up.
Socialism at its very best.
Thieving chef Worrall Thompson is official spe@ker for controversial “Tory madrasa”
http://politicalscrapbook.net/2012/01/anthony-worrall-thompson-ybf/
Surely that should be “paneer” rather than “madras”?
Anyway – who cares – the man’s obviously got issues and needs a doctor. Pretty bad taste to use Tesco, though – he might have nicked some Israeli cheese by mistake.
Typical Tory.
Yeah, you’re right, mate.
I know what you mean.
You’re supposed to be ‘distressed’, aren’t you ?????
Yes, my client is indeed distressed. The thought of being punished for stealing £60,000 from the working class is making her ill. She will not be ill if she is not punished, therefore I argue she be acquitted on health grounds.
Plus, she’d like to keep the money, if that’s OK.
But that doesn’t make him a bad PERSON.
Dianne Abbott says you’ve taken what Worrall Thompson did out of context.
In colonial times he’d have been sent to Australia. Oh, he’s already done that.
I legitimately put things on expenses.
You shoplift.
He is a professional thief.
Well we’re being a bit unfair aren’t we?
After all those union funded MP’s receive handsome handouts from the unions to do what the unions tell them. In other words they are bought.
If they should choose to do the decent thing and act for the benefit of the taxpayer and their constituents and not the unions then the unions will remove their generous handouts.
It’s a no brainer isn’t it? They are going to go where the easy money is.
Nell after the Foxy-Werritty affair the Cons cannot complain can they, the are probably all at it, all parties, maybe there should be a list backers of MPs, and if anything comes to light that they have not mentioned, they would automatically lose their seat.
It ain’t over till the fat lady sings.
Jane Pilgrim.
Never has one woman done so much damage to the Unions – she must be a troll.
Come on Ed, this should sort your popularity out – tell Jane and the Unions to get with the real world and work bloody hard like the rest of us – if I took as much time off my work as she did i’d be fired and my job is not as important as being a nurse. It sickens me to hear about nurses saying they are understaffed on one hand then this nutter on the other.
Ed and his fellow MPs have very distant memories of what hard work is, if they have ever done any. For them, these lazy Pilgrims seem like real grafters
I wonder if Mrs Miliband will introduce her husband ‘ he is fab at the rubik’s cube, he watches blackbusters, he and David are great mates….. my husband, your weirdo’.
Even more evidence of how Red Ed and Labour are still failing to learn from their election mistakes.
Shame on Tony Lloyd are his fellow union baron troughers
Troughers living high on the hog courtesy of tax payers money whilst buying influence over a political party.
That should make them easy to spot.
The other thing that makes the easy to spot: when they walk, their knuckles drag along on the ground.
inspired by Dave Prentis:
Jane PilgrimHi, Inspired when I met David Prentis last week,I feel it very important to get involved now. I live in Norbiton, I work at St Georges where I am the Staff Side Sec for UNISON. Its important to win the next election. The cuts in the public sector are going to criple the lives of hard working, commited and caring people. We cant let it happen.

The government intends to replace Disability Living Allowance with the Personal Independence Payment. Thousands of sick and disabled people will lose out as a result of this reform.
A report has been prepared by disabled people which totally demolishes the government’s case.
Read it at http://tinyurl.com/78erjru and send a copy to your MP, before it’s too late.
I’d love to read it, but the link gives me, “Microsoft Word Web App. Responsible reform for Screen Readers on SkyDrive.”
Couldn’t they have just released the report in html?
But it is readable from that link isn’t it? Thanks for looking.
This should get you there #spartacusreport bit.ly/Ad01m6
Something to do with Twitter which I don’t understand.
Try this link.
My first impression is that it takes the form of the kind of ‘meta analysis’ which our beloved Royal National Health Service uses to decide whether a new drug delivers the kind of bang per buck which merits approval by NIHCE.
The percentages it quotes refer to self-selected groups of unknown size and affiliation, raising my suspicions further.
Their essential problem for the study is to disprove the widespread thinking that disability benefits have mushroomed as successive governments have tried to massage unemployment figures downwards.
Have a read and see whether you think they have proved their point.

Cameron will do nowt as usual. No guts!
Why? Why are they allowed a vote in this?
