Cooper’s Cash from Shamed ‘Expenses Queen’
You might have thought that any self-respecting ambitious shadow cabinet minister and future party leadership contender would want to keep a safe distance from the sleazy world of expenses cheats. Not Yvette Cooper.
The shadow home secretary trousered a donation of nearly £5,000 from shamed ex-Labour MP and so-called ‘Expenses Queen’ Barbara Follett this month. Follett lost her job at the last election after she was exposed as one of the worst expenses troughers of all, amongst other things claiming £500 to clean a Chinese rug. Her novelist husband Ken bankrolled Ed Balls’ leadership campaign, and overall the Folletts have donated almost £60,000 to the Balls-Coopers this Parliament. Last time round public pressure decided that Barbara Follett had no role to play in public life. Ed and Yvette clearly disagree…

I don’t think the phrase “Jap’s Eye” is used enough when writing about Ed Balls
I think its wrong to cut child benefits for families on £50,0001 and still pay to
1) families who make almost £100,000.
2) people who have 10 kids.
3) Cameron and Osborne’s parents and in-laws who are some of the richest in country. They are still getting winter fuel allowance, free TV licence, free travel, etc. Some even get millions for having wind turbines as well.
There’s no money left.
Call it “fair” tax
Miss,Ed Balls said the ‘C’ word.
Ed, whatever happened to ‘too far, too fast’ ???
I thought spending cuts were what the nasty Tories did ??
Please send us clear instructions for the 6 o’clock news as we are confused.
Love and kisses.
Ever.
Sorry Ed is unable to reply in person as he is heavily promoting
Mental Health problems on behalf of his life long patron
Gordon Fcuking McMental who is due out on day release very soon
hence the urgent pressure on his time…..
How ever he has said to Please use your own B*B*C inventive slant
as usual…..
So how many millions do Ed and Yvette Multimillionaireballs-Cooper own?
There is more chance of the career shirker, Chris Patten, finding a ‘real’ job one day, than Ed Balls knowing what he is talking about . . .
When commentators say labours narrative must change if the economy starts to pick up.
Does that mean Ed balls has got to change the bollocks he talks on the economy to anther load of bollocks ,
Then we’ve got to forget everything said before .
Why are we giving a single penny? I would consider it illegal to donate British taxpayer money to an organisation that has never been audited.
But the E-ewe have been audited many, many times and every time the auditors found massive fraud and theft, and every time the E-ewe just shrugs and carries on as if nothing is untoward. The real criminals are the enablers, who keep taking nations taxpayers money and giving it to their partners in crime in Brussels.
So what legal avenue do we go down to challenge UKs contribution to this corrupt edifice?
Maybe that Avenue in Paris called the Chancers Leezay?
Hypocrisy and mendacity. It’s in Libor’s D-N-A.
PLEASE!!
The collective term for the Balls-Coopers is either ‘Gonads’ or ‘Bollox’.
Heh, I come here to laugh at fictitious truths and the first comment sums up the kind of people that believe them. Thanks for proving my point, you homophobic fuck.
You seem terribly angry for a man having a laugh
There used to be a story on here about her giving a journalist a blowie but it all went quiet. Telegraph wasn’t it?
Whew! Is that really your name? Seriounsly? You cannot be seriounce!
Oink oink!
Barbara Follett looks a bit like Emma Harrison – another fat Labour-supporting bint who retired to spend more time with £8m of our money.
Wunce upon a thyme their was a …. …..
Babs babe, I’ve got writer’s block.
Load of Balls.
Daddy. Is it true that when you became an MPs you swore the Hippocratic Oath?
No, Darling; Mummy was just saying we have become a swearing hypocritical oafs.
And yet the dead tree press refuses to lead with this scoop. It’s a conspiracy of silence I tell you.
It’s a Ball-Scooper.
You are nothing but a labour familiar, and I claim my 5 free tax exempt house sales
An exchange of mine with a minor novelist whose newest work wasn’t being reviewed:
“It’s a campaign of silence, Oscar, what can I do?”
“Join it.”
Words to live by, Jimmy.

That Cooper woman looks like she’s got her mouth jam-packed full of money. Or something ….
Yvette (@ Premier-in-waiting) has no compunction in taking money from any source in order to advance her overweening political ambitions. She would even dump Mr Blinky if it served her purpose.
Do her friends not suggest she have a facelift?
She would never, never! And I’ll… and I’ll… and I’ll kick…kick your ass if you keep talking about her that way!

Taking care of the books for a number of SME’s I am always struck at how incredulous small business owners are that Ed Balls has survived the economic wreck that Labour left behind.
Not one business owner I know believes that Ed Balls as one scintilla of economic credibility.
Shows what Labour really think of small & medium sized businesses – invisible cash cows even though they employ the vast majority of workers in the private sector.
The 53% are important too.
The 53% – paid for by a diminishing 47% of taxpayers in the productive side of the UK PLC economy.
I thought you would recognise, given the vast & historical evidence available, that even utopian sixth form small time opportunist political pygmies like Labour have to balance the books & be believed by the international markets to have credibility & sustain a nations growth.
We all cannot be North London property millionaires working in the public sector you know.
God, you’re SOOO right-wing!
*takes another forkful of couscous with roasted red peppers and chargrilled halloumi*
Recycle,recycle,recycle.
But keep those unslightly wheelie bins off our patch.
Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.
An admirably concise and accurate summary of why the UK is so utterly fucked!
Ultimately Milliband will dump him-he’s far too toxic and if worst came to worst he might find himself used by the Tories like that murderer Dukakis released whose picture was used on so many Republican billboards that there was a joke that he was his running mate.Remember, he wasn’t Milliband’s first choice anyway.
People who are so thick that they enjoy Ken Follett’s literary works are frequently thick enough to inhabit Labour’s core vote. It’s a logical partnership, to be fair.

You are of course assuming they can actually read then?
I’ve decided that it would pay me to go around doing good.
Censorship?
It’s nearly Remembrance Sunday. Time to claim for those poppy wreaths.

Will the last honest MP please turn the lights out?
We have had enough of this
Come back Cromwell, all is forgiven
Well, all right, I shall do it, but this time,
I or my master have never heard of Barbara Follett
Yvette, thats a damn Frenchie name isn’t?
LOL, £500 to clean a Chinese rug, send for Max Headroom.
I seem to remember Labour MP Andy Love claiming £800 for the cleaning of his curtains, £600 for the cleaning plus £100 for taking them down and another £100 to put them back up.
There must be some mistake. I just saw a Sky reporteress stood in half an inch of floodwater down by the the NYC waterside.
They better get this one right or we will have a cell waiting for them.

There’s a surprise. Now what about the rest of your gang, when are they coming out of the woodwork?
Point of Order: Is there a legal requirement to declare ALL of this influx of

Kick them both in the balls. Put them both in the stocks.
Just what do the children of Adolph Balls and Eva Cooper look like?
Hard to imagine what that pair could pump out
Something like this I reckon.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2223230/The-Apeman-Amazon–75-year-old-pictures-mans-missing-link–work-good-make-artist.html
Nope thats a Prescott, or in fact any denizen of Humberside
Bet they can’t speak properly. Neither Balls or Cooper can say their r’s.
Chinese dustman-’Where’s your bin?’
Ed Milliband-’I've been keeping a low profile till this Jimmy Savile shit calms down’
Chinese Dustman- ‘No,where’s your wheelybin’
Ed Milliband- ‘Oh,no we don’t want them ghastly things round here’
Is “cleaning a chinese rug” a euphamism?
ha
Is Yvette a man or a women?
A hen.
Neither, she is an asexual pocket lining opportunist, she thinks Blinky and her are on the road to riches, a la Blair, the original straight sort of guy!!

BREAKING NEWS: A number of MP’s from all parties have just taken off
on a luxury private chartered 100 seat jet bound for Kennedy Airport,New York.
This will enable them to get 1st hand experience of a major natural

The Millibands should be very worried if Adolph Balgets his hands on the lever of power , it will be rail road trucks and camps all around, he does of course have form
One brother ! One knife ! One Nation !
Cooper and Balls are dead ringers for that famous pair of National Socialists, Hitler and Eva. Obviously similar scruples as well!
Can that guy get to look any shiftier, it gets worse by the day!
Bloody hell, nice clip, It’s Blinky with a tash!
Amazing how the political classes have spent the best part of 70 years balkanising Britain, and are now starting to get a little concerned about inevitable consequences.
Can you dig up the mrs balls’ car crash interview, where she keeps gabbling the party line over and over in a screechy voice ? The first time I saw it, I thought it was an out take from the ‘Chicken Run’ animated movie !
Why are the current bunch or Labour “lovelies” such a strident bunch?
Is millionaire Chucka talking about those who work within the mental health care system or its customers?
No full stop Chucky .
Maybe it should tell you a thing or two about your DNA Mr Ommuna
That or maybe the copius consumption of psyochactive drugs in your “community”
Every black person that I mix with doesnt take any such things and are perfectly normal pleasent people
You on the other hand are an exploitative c$%^&

Is Chuka concerned about the OVER representation of ethnic minorities in things like politics, BBC, sport etc..
…and Halifax adverts! Well ok, all adverts, but particularly the crappiest of Halifax adverts
Oh, we love putting people of colour in adverts to show what lovely people we are, so in touch with the Zeitgeist.
We particularly like to have idealised black men depicted in relationships with highly, highly attractive white women.
But never the other way round. That just doesn’t feel right.
why?
balls only had one ball
his mother the dirty bugger
ad it for supper when e was small
an now the other is in the free trade hall
I think the Cooper woman would be a great addition to my herd, my heffers are in need of bulking out and a shorting of the legs
Obscene that govt. plans to spend hundreds of millions on nukes, while slashing welfare & benefits http://bit.ly/S8jMnh
Welfare and benefits need slashing. While they are at it, they can change the law requiring people to have paid in, before they can get a payout.
So if the BBC was not aware of Savile’s behaviour, why did they ban him from Children in need because they were aware of his behaviour?
http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/view/279647/SAVILE-HAD-PUDSEY-BAN/
Savile was a BBC employee, and had been abusing minors on BBC premises, but somehow it has become the actions of a rogue, an odd ball, an eccentric, acting on his own without the knowledge of others.
The BBC must have employed all three blind monkeys at board level, Mr Speak-Noevil, Mr See-Noevil, and Mr Hear-Noevil.
If only the UK had had a regulated media, none of this nonsense about Child Abuse would have ever seen the day.
Please give generously, cos we desperately need some good publicity…
5000 is chicken feed compared to the stash we made flipping our taxpayer-funded properties.

Mr. Balls, sir, we’re getting confused again. Is it still ‘too far, too fast’, ‘much farther, much faster’ or …….???
Please do not forget me
