As revealed in yesterday’s Sun, Diane Abbott took her mind off losing her shadow front-bench job last week by appearing on ITV’s Saturday night gameshow The Chase, alongside celebs Anton du Beke, Denise van Outen, and Matt Le Tissier.

Are we surprised ?
did the other celebs get an appearance fee
if they did whats the problem
It's annoying because she is always so ....... self righteous,and I cant believe any of them would get an appearance fee
She's a bog standard hypocritical champagne socialist - sent her kid to private school.
Very professional at picking up TV appearance money
I can't stand the woman.
Of course Labour MPs don't have a great record on TV shows.

what's the difference ...... she's well~used to being forced to "eat her words", that 'un!
Repulsive woman
Then again ... those here with long memories, will doubtless recalla certain Anthony Aloysius Bliar pocketing twenty grand apiece - for giving talks of half-an-hour's duration respectively, to three separate Philippine universities a few years ago.
SCANDALOUS!
The sheep continue to vote for them Arthur.Originally Posted by Arthur Little

Re Tony's Cronies, Labour Hypocrisy, Schmoozers, Trough Feeders etc etc here's a bit of news about another slippery creature who was bigged up on here for fighting the Millipede corner on the BBC :-

Let's not forget the current London Mayor and many peoples tip to be next Tory leader who thought £250,000 on top of his mayoral pay was "Chicken Feed"
And his the Tory MP who is believed to be the best paid MP in Parliament. Can he really represent his constituents whilst doing all that work

Good point Marco
Did you read the article
The outside work was for a total of 1500 hours spread over 2,1/4 years or 115 weeks, so effectively 10 hours a week
It also goes onto say:-
The MP, who was elected with a majority of almost 20,000 votes in the 2010 General Election, told the newspaper: “My attendance and other indicators are among the highest among MPs, with my expenses among the lowest, and my remaining work outside Parliament is primarily when the House is not sitting and other MPs are on holiday.
So, the answer is a resounding YES, he does represent his constituents rather well
You could go on about labour and tory scammers for years gone by. But you wont change who I will vote for.
UKIP ?
No chance graham. I will let the tory voters do that.

Nice one Andy for sticking by yours.......... you still wont get me to change mine though

The thing is they have the wool pulled over their eyes and don't realise their actually voting yes for a one way ticket to the slaughter houseThere is a lot there Ded. I wouldnt waste your time voting mate. Have a nice bike ride instead.
Talking about sheep
Talking about sheep
Silly meI thought we were talking about Labour supporters
no not a resounding yes, has he done 1,500hrs when the house was not sitting or on holidays, if he did then its not 10hrs per week, more like full time when the MP's were on their long holidays, and when he should have been in his constituency sorting their problems outand my remaining work outside Parliament is primarily when the House is not sitting and other MPs are on holiday.
So, the answer is a resounding YES, he does represent his constituents rather well
maybe its time MP's were forced to do more work than the 30wks a year they 'work' talk about school teachers having long holidays
Probably better than youGood point Marco
Did you read the article
:
I take it maths wasn't your strong subject
I make July 2011 to May 2013 quite a bit less than 2 1/4 years or 115 weeks.
However as a lawyer I'm sure that Mr Phillips is an ideal candidate to be an MP and probably a lot better than the trough feeder he replaced. However I don't think it's right when the MP's position can be looked upon as their second job.
This leaves you open in certain circumstances to a conflict of interest which we have seen in the past from members of all parties can shall we say cloud their judgment.
I've believed for a long time now that politics is attracting the wrong sort of people. IMO it should be a calling to serve and improve not to fill your boots.
Joe, you're going to get a sore head with all thatno not a resounding yes, has he done 1,500hrs when the house was not sitting or on holidays, if he did then its not 10hrs per week, more like full time when the MP's were on their long holidays, and when he should have been in his constituency sorting their problems out

Valid points though
I dont think your following the script Simon. Ded hasnt said nothing about valid points.
Marco, my sincere apologies, I was reading the the date at the top (Oct 2013) which would make it 115 weeks. As it is, you are correct and it's nearer 95 weeks.Probably better than you
I take it maths wasn't your strong subject

Thanks for the the reading, and the maths lesson
