@ARWURZELBS3 He’s the sitting MP. As was Tom Hunt, the Tory, before him, who also benefited from freebies from the club. It’s a shit argument. Try again.
There are multiple reasons this is a bad idea

Labour racked up the wins this week.
Lots of new initiatives to make the country fairer and greener in particular. (Though much of it didn’t make the papers.)
What you might have missed:
I genuinely thought the world would be a more pleasant place after Covid given what we all went through. Couldn't have been more wrong. Everyone's lost their fuckin minds.
So when Trump fires all non-partisan career professionals in government, replaces them with radical loyalists within every nook and cranny of the US government, and adds radical judges everywhere.

When the cancer you caused has infected every bit of the American system and it can’t be unwound for a lifetime.

Do you beg this country for forgiveness for choosing fascism because you were conned into believing your eggs are too expensive because of Joe Biden?
You just put Steve Bannon in charge of American policy.
You just put Michael Flynn in charge of our military.
You just put Alex Jones in charge of media and propaganda.
You just put Stephen Miller in charge of immigration policy.
You just put batshit crazy RFK Jr. in charge of health policy.
You just killed free public education and privatized schools, which you will have to pay for.
You just sealed the deal on a national abortion ban, because you’re demented if you think it’s not coming.
You just radicalized the Supreme Court for a generation.
You just made women less safe and less free.
You just made this country an oligarchy with the billionaires quite literally in charge now.
You just put in office the one person that believes a president is a king, with the fucking Supreme Court ruling to prove it in his back pocket!
You just ushered in Fascism.
Because your cereal costs more.
Congratulations.
The Royals make millions in profit each year, but this has always been shrouded in secrecy, until now.
A joint @C4Dispatches and @thetimes investigation reveals that the King and Prince William are receiving public money through leasing property to public services like the NHS.
Neil Innes’ pastiche of Ringo’s Helter Skelter yelp is just one of the million things to love about him.
What’s your favourite Neil moment?
Yes, sod it. Let’s try and get #NeilInnes trending
