Lee Anderson, MP for (and native of) Ashfield

https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/tory-mp-brits-dont-need-food-banks-cant-cook/

Quote

He claimed there was "not this massive use for food banks in this country", and those who knew how to cook and budget could make meals for 30p a day.

A celebrity chef should invite him to come and show us all how it is done.

Anderson was a scab miner in the eighties and a disgraced Labour councillor in more recent times. He finally found his true home amongst the pond life within the tory party. Swimming with the likes of johnson, patel, dorries, kwateng, hancock, sunak, truss, javid, raab, barclay, etc., etc., etc., etc., ... gives him an awful lot of nasties to look up to.

Jack Monroe has done exactly that.

And she has a very pertinent rant about it here.

So many to choose from, but an extra special mention for whoever thought of throwing another 90,000 people into unemployment to use their salaries to dish out tax cuts.

So wrong and economically illiterate on too many levels to list without becoming apoplectic.

The delays in the passport office are unacceptable!
The delays in issuing driving licences are unacceptable!

It is almost like, I don't know, they need more staff. Lets get rid of staff, that will make things more efficient!

It's sell off strategy. Make it totally shite then allow your mates to make a profit from the taxpayer.

The usual tory looting of the public purse.

It is indeed, and undoubtedly the replacement will cost more and provide less.

Lee Anderson (30p meals a day etc) has libelled Jack Monroe on GammonNews and she's instructing her lawyer.

This is the thing, it's not just that I find their opinions disagreeable, it's that they're not really opinions, they're just the dull, aching final brown toilet bowl splatters of dumb. There are rocks smarter than Lee Anderson. Well, actually, it's safer to say that there aren't any rocks dumber than Lee Anderson.

Odds on my parents voted for him, mind.

It's a silly argument though, the real story ought to be that no one in one of the richest countries of the world ought to be trying to figure out how to make 30p meals. It's not an achievement, it's a failure.

Don't forget Lee Anderson's expenses claims.
In the region of £190,000 IIRC.

ETA: It appears that I didn't RC:- £220,000 :- https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1609114/Lee-Anderson-food-banks-comments-Tory-MP-house-of-commons-cost-of-living-crisis-vn

Also:- https://www.parallelparliament.co.uk/mp/lee-anderson/expenses/claim-status

I appreciate it's an overview but, if I put that^ forward as an expenses claim, my company would really and correctly, ask questions.

I hope Jack Monroe either gets a grovelling apology or (metaphorically) takes his trousers down in court.

With luck, that would lead to a by election (MPs can't be declared bankrupt AIUI):- https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2021/nov/08/tory-mp-faces-bankruptcy-over-unpaid-taxes-and-may-have-to-step-down-adam-afriyie

My reading of Teh Roolz* is that a bankrupt type:

Cannot stand for election to Parliament, and/or
If already a member, cannot sit in the Chamber or vote

It doesn’t, alas, state whether they still get paid, or whether they’re still entitled to subsidised grub in the works canteen.

* except for viewers in Scotland
