🚨 TAXPAYERS FOOT £800 A WEEK HOTEL AND COMMUTE BILL FOR DIRECTOR OF BURNHAM'S NO 10 NORTH.

Andy Burnham's northern PR gimmick has been exposed as an absolute goldmine for London civil servants!

Director General Sam Lister lives in a 2.2 million pound townhouse in Islington, commuting to Manchester on public money and staying in luxury hotels.

Her 800 pound a week travel and hotel bill alone is enough to pay the entire annual salary of a new junior doctor in the NHS! 🤡

They tax working class families into poverty, claim there is no money for public services, and then spend thousands sending Islington elites back and forth across the country!

You’re saying No10 North will mean loads of civil servants spending millions of pounds and thousands of hours travelling up and down from Manchester just to take a video call?

🚨 HMRC took £90.4 BILLION more from taxpayers last year.

That comes directly from the National Audit Office.

In just one year, HMRC collected 10.3% more tax - an extra £90.4 billion!

Thanks in part to frozen tax thresholds, 1.1 million more people were dragged into paying Income Tax.

So HMRC clearly has no problem taking more money from you.

What it does have, is a problem passing audit.

For the 24th year in a row, auditors were unable to give HMRC a completely clean audit because they found significant levels of fraud and error.

And now Andy Burnham is reportedly considering another £38 billion of tax rises.

How about before taking another penny from taxpayers…

…they stop the fraud and error and prove they can properly manage the record amounts we’re already paying?

🚨 BREAKING: New Health Secretary Yvette Cooper has taken almost half a million pounds from a donor linked to the NHS and private healthcare recruitment company.

Donor Peter Hearn has also been involved in the appointment of the lead for the failed NHS Test and Trace programme during the covid-19 pandemic.

Labour attacked supermarkets. They’ve hit back.

British Retail Consortium, which represents many big shops incl M&S, Sainsbury’s and Tesco, have said that Labour’s tax rises are to blame for higher prices.

Labour’s tax rises are also to blame for job losses.

Chelsea literally picked the most boring way to spend €2.41 BILLION.

47-year-old Irish dad from Leinster drugged his own kids and their mates at a sleepover, then raped one of the girls in the woods during a game of hide and seek.

Jailed in Dublin for just 15½ years.

Not life.

Not the death penalty.

Fifteen and a half fucking years.

No wonder rapes are increasing at such a rapid rate. Disgraceful!

Between 2011 & 2018, third party entities made twelve payments totalling approximately £47.5m. These were made with the knowledge & approval of Chelsea, using funds linked to Roman Abramovich.

For Eden Hazard, Kenedy, Ramires, David Luiz, André Schürrle & Nemanja Matić, the club paid £23.1m was paid to seven unregistered agents & associates using Abramovich's funds & never reported in their filings.

With Samuel Eto’o & Willian, both signed from Anzhi Makhachkala, a company made payments totalling €24m to two British Virgin Islands registered companies, the recipients were associated with Anzhi.

Total major trophies in the period: 14
- 3x Premier League
- 3x FA Cup
- 1x League Cup
- 2x UEFA Champions League
- 2x UEFA Europa League
- 1x UEFA Super Cup
- 1x FIFA Club World Cup

In the time these breaches occurred, Chelsea's yearly annual revenue was between £261m-£445m, winning between £700m-£800m in prize money. £10m is a pathetic 'punishment', it is a rounding error.

Clubs may as well cheat if this is the slap on the wrist.

🇮🇹🗣️ UEFA Vice President Gabriele Gravina: “I have long denounced the political interference accepted by Infantino. Now we discover that they want to sell a stake in the organisation that holds the helm of football to the brother of the U.S. president’s son-in-law.”

“Does it look like the Super League? Very much so. The financial backers are the same, the idea is the same, but on a global scale. It’s even worse, though: football is being sold off. But football isn’t a private asset that you can sell to the highest bidder, how can you sell something that isn’t yours? Infantino didn’t invent it."
