@Dawn117147265@vickybarlo@RobertJenrick Did you get free education ? Did your parents get child benefit ? Have you ever had free NHS treatment ? Like when you were born ? If so STFU and grow up.
@BackOnTopUTD@UtdXclusive In the days those players played they were vastly underpaid but the club was highly profitable. The club owes them not the current players.
Is it as appalling and shocking as these Robert?

Robert Jenrick
, currently serving as the Reform UK MP for Newark and Shadow Chancellor (appointed February 2026), has been central to several high-profile political controversies. His career has been marked by accusations of bias in planning, breaches of lockdown rules, and most recently, a dramatic defection from the Conservative Party.

Major Political Controversies
Westferry Printworks Planning Scandal (2020): As Housing Secretary, Jenrick unlawfully approved a £1bn housing development for Conservative donor Richard Desmond. The approval was rushed through just 24 hours before a new council tax would have cost Desmond £40m. Jenrick later admitted "apparent bias" after it emerged they had exchanged private texts and sat together at a fundraising dinner.
Defection to Reform UK (2026): In January 2026, Jenrick was sacked from the Conservative Shadow Cabinet by Kemi Badenoch after she discovered "irrefutable evidence" he was secretly plotting to defect to Reform UK. He officially joined Nigel Farage's party hours later, describing the Conservatives as "rotten" and "broken".
COVID-19 Lockdown Breaches (2020): During the first national lockdown, Jenrick faced calls to resign after travelling 150 miles to a second home in Herefordshire and 40 miles to visit his parents. He defended the trips as essential for delivering medicine, despite government guidance at the time to "stay at home".
Asylum Centre "Cartoon" Controversy (2023): While serving as Immigration Minister, Jenrick ordered staff at a Kent asylum reception centre for children to paint over murals of Disney characters (including Mickey Mouse), arguing they were "not age-appropriate" for teenagers. The move was widely condemned as performative and cruel.
Donation from "Shell" Company (2024): During his 2024 Conservative leadership bid, Jenrick accepted a £75,000 donation from Spott Fitness, a company with no employees and significant debts. This sparked questions about the ultimate source of the funds.
Misleading Parliament on Modern Slavery (2023): The UK Statistics Authority formally criticised Jenrick for claiming 71% of foreign offenders were "claiming to be modern slaves" to avoid deportation, when the actual figure was closer to 20%.

Other Notable Incidents
Expenses and Funding: He was forced to repay travel expenses after claiming for both petrol and rail tickets for the same trip, and faced criticism for awarding "levelling up" funds to his own relatively affluent constituency.
Driving Disqualification (2023): He was banned from driving for six months and fined over £1,600 for speeding on the M1.
Handsworth Integration Comments (2025): Jenrick drew sharp criticism for claiming he "didn't see another white face" in Handsworth, Birmingham, framing it as an example of failed integration.

@RobertJenrick You joined a failing organisation and will never have a gov job again. That makes you irrelevant no matter what pathetic stunts you pull.
@BonardiDebi@EileenforCO Socialist policies are currently enacted in the best countries in the world where none of those things occur. Norway, Finland, Switzerland etc.
@NigelLaw526509 @drearycontent @AlexTaylorNews A country that can hold such a referendum at all is clearly running itself. EU is a trade organisation which makes agreements to cut historic trade barriers. Brexit and Trump are costing UK jobs by the thousand.
