Wondering which is more unhelpful; that Tory PPCs have placed bets on the date of a UK Parliamentary election, or that this activity has been reported to the Gambling Commission which is presently investigating and the Tories don't like being held to account.
Aw... thats reeelee reeeleee reeelee fkn sweeet Gillian. Self-congratulatory air time again. Not like C4 need to allow these tories to disembowel themselves with their imaginary swords. Fixing the RAAC yet? Is it just me that think tories dont know how to use subtractions in their audits?
As you teachers are part of the problem not the solution, it would be nice if a proper government would get a grip on the insidious indoctrination of kids on the non-existent "climate crisis" and paying homage to degenerates and benders in "Pride Month".
This stupid t@rt is one of the Cameroon "One Nation" caucus that is the real problem with the not-very-Conservative party. May she lose her seat but all the centrist pro-EU Remoaner filth on the Tory party have safe seats, whereas the half-decent Tory MPs in the north will be the ones who lose their seats.
Every single time there's an issue the first thing the tories do is think 'How can I enrich myself out of this' not what's best for the country or what's the right thing to do.
The lady who said "nobody is telling us we are doing a fucking good job" is back out of the woods to, again, congratulate the tories on their great record. Nobody is talking to the tories on the doorstep about the bets? Do we believe her??
People generally understand the difference between right and wrong, it's just Conservatives that need to have the rules strictly defined for them. Luckily, (for us) there are laws against using insider information for personal financial gain, although the chance of them being enforced are slim.
The Betting Scandal is a symptom of a chronic 15 years of mismanagement and promoting individuals beyond their capabilities. This situation is not your scapegoat.
How do the people in Knowsley feel, the presenter asks Gillian. The latter has no ^&$#@*^ idea as she hasn't been back for decades. Had the honourable member been asked what the Conservative constituents of Chichester think, she would have been far more assured.
She might find the scrutiny of public officials and potential MP's 'unhelpful', I think it is essential. They should be held to a very high standard, like the policeman who is suspended for betting on the date of the election.
I'll tell you what's really unhelpful Gillian,.. you not telling these conservative allies what a good effing job they're doing while everyone else was sitting on their backsides.
I hate to point out the obvious but... In this case repeating the past means re-electing the Tories and that is the only thing they want and why they want you to forget the past
Motormouth Keegan, the Tory plan is to talk and talk and talk, don't take questions. Interviewers need to practise the same level of rudeness that is necessary to shut them up. Accountability is a strange concept for the entitled Tories, they don't do that, just demand it of everyone else, regardless.
I have always voted Conservative. I am totally disgusted in Rishi Sunak who is clearly spineless. Gillian Keegan could not be further off target with her answers. She has not even got the brains and gravitas to tell whoever is talking in the background to shut up. The current Conservative party has become very disappointing to say the least. The real issue is Sunak has surrounded himself with some of the dimmest people in Britain. He does not realise that, the betting scandal is the proof that he has very poor judgement. Coming back from France half-way through the D-Day event, totally shameful. just illustrates how out of touch he is. You cannot apologise your way out of poor judgement time after time.
What's really, really unhelpful is Ritchie Sunak lying to the country about; "Government integrity, professionalism and accountability at every level" - 25/10/22.
Every time she's interviewed she's smirking, smiling, giggly. How could her constituents elect such a poor minded person to represent them. She more than most senior Tories needs to lose her seat. I can safely say that she won't be missed.
Yea, it is really unhelpful having so many unethical, moralless lying crooks in the party, can't seem to get our msg across on anything. Maybe try being not so disgusting as a party, see how that goes.
Well I don't have it...they would have given me life so maybe look a bit closer at all the others in govenment that have had their sticky fingers in the public funds till and got away with it.
Michael Crick Ah, Michael Keegan, the friend of John Bercow who systematically put bets on Bercow as a candidate for Speaker to shift the odds & generate momentum behind his campaign among MPs.
"Unhelpful" What planet do these people live on? Politicians caught again with their grubby little hands in the till. They get VERY well-paid, plus expenses, curtsey of the taxpayer, and they still want more. Pure greed!
This woman is horrific. She’s so smarmy and ridiculous with her answers, tone & overall approach. I’ll never forget some of her previous interviews she’s shocking. Torie HQ keep sending her out to interviews they must actually think this is good.
@ 1:27 She is asked whether the issue has been raised by her constituents and she does the classic liar trait of licking her lips… Body language doesn’t lie, Sister 😂
I live in Liverpool and work in Knowsley. If she wanted to know what people in those areas think of the Tories she would need to be ready for a lot more expletives.
