Stoatwobbler Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 One for anyone in Rotherham. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-20178332 Former Labour minister Denis MacShane is facing suspension from the Commons for 12 month. A Parliamentary committee found that he had submitted 19 false invoices "plainly intended to deceive" Parliament's expenses authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obelix Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Over an hour and not one reply. Shame it's not a Tory, we would have had 10 pages by now! Indeed. I was wondering just how long before someone dared to condemn him... gues we will have to wait a little longer. As you say, if it'd been a Conservative or Liberal the usual suspects would be out of the woodwork long before now flinging monkeynuts like they always do.

geared Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Labour were caught with their fingers in the till in 2009. Things haven't changed - and people moan at the Tory monetary policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoatwobbler Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 Over an hour and not one reply. Shame it's not a Tory, we would have had 10 pages by now! He's a local politician as well! We are talking here about the neighbouring town having no representation in parliament for the next year if he doesn't do the decent thing and resign his seat.

Mecky Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Indeed. I was wondering just how long before someone dared to condemn him... gues we will have to wait a little longer. As you say, if it'd been a Conservative or Liberal the usual suspects would be out of the woodwork long before now flinging monkeynuts like they always do. Yawn. Stop trying to play it down, we all know you're swinging from the chandelier and probably linking the story all over the Internet trying to make some point.

Obelix Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 And there's the first one flung. Hour and 24 minutes - you'd have been a lot faster if was a Tory I'm sure Mecky. As for linking no. I don't engage in gutter level politics like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magilla Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Yawn. Stop trying to play it down, we all know you're swinging from the chandelier and probably linking the story all over the Internet trying to make some point. And once again Mecky incorrectly accuses someone else of doing what he does in 99% of his posts. Your hypocrisy never ceases to amaze me. You seem to be confusing Obelix with yourself!

As for linking no. I don't engage in gutter level politics like that. Posting a link to a story like this from a reputable source is not "gutter level" politics. It's an important story, regardless of the political party Macshane belongs to. It deserves to be brought to peoples attention and debated.
