Nice summary of the new contract on that Telegraph article:


I notice that it compares base salaries, but doesn't compare the bonuses paid for unsocial hours. I wonder why that might be?

Why do I have the feeling that "I was advised they wouldn't pass the EU legislation if I didn't argue for the removal of Trusts" is just outright bollocks? That wasn't the reason given back then.

The trouble is that if he'd waited 4-6 weeks then the Panama Papers would be out of the front page and he hasn't had much success in converting lines of attack into newspaper column inches. He needed to take advantage of the fact that they were already printing this stuff and that Cameron is feeling under pressure enough to care at this moment - but might not be in two months time.

Yeah tell it to pissflaps!

At first I was thinking that he'd hosed up because Cameron didn't have to answer the question but then I realised there was absolutely no loving way he was going to answer the question with anything other than HURR DUURRR CORBYN SCRUFFY but instead he's just guaranteed the words "Dodgy Dave" are going to be used a lot over the next few days.

Dennis Skinner is a loving national treasure and if Labour only had 624 more of him this country would be a far better place.

Cameron has done a gently caress-load of poo poo, this is just another thing that makes the Tories look corrupt. It probably won't bring him down but it doesn't matter, it's made him look like a cheating piece of poo poo.

Anyone else would be gone by now. Cameron is teflon as gently caress and will go exactly when he wants to. It's just something I've come to accept. That's not to say he won't irreparably damage the Tories image.

I don't hate people who are wealthy, I just hate people who are wealthy through unearned means, land monopoly, usury, the extraction of the labor of others, unfair trading, etc.

Robert Jenrick, a Conservative, says he has gone back through Hansard over the 13 years while Labour was in power and he cannot find any reference to Jeremy Corbyn complaining about tax havens. He says the only relevant reference he found was Corbyn saying the plan to use orders in council to take control of the Turks and Caicos Islands in 2009 was “medieval” and “extreme”. But Corbyn is now proposing that for tax havens, he says.

Cameron jokes that Corbyn has now found a use of nuclear submarines; he can send them to subjugate the Isle of Mann.

Haha what a bunch of petulant children.
