I'll never forget that woman because she tried to get the tax payer to pay off her mortgage. Nothing short of fraud in my view.

Iain Dale crawls up her @rse. Now Starmer.

I cannot stand the woman.

Yes Sneaky Starmer


[Two former cabinet ministers who
served under Tony Blair and Gordon Brown
have been given junior ministerial roles
by Sir Keir Starmer.

Former home secretary Jacqui Smith
will join the House of Lords to
become higher education minister,
Downing Street said.

While Douglas Alexander, who held
several cabinet roles in the last Labour
government, is now a business minister after
returning as an MP for the first time since
losing his seat in 2015.

The new posts are part of a small number
of new ministerial appointments made
by the prime minister on his first full
day in office.

Ellie Reeves, the sister of
Chancellor Rachel Reeves,
becomes minister without portfolio.

Sir Keir has also appointed
Ms Reeves - who served as co-director of
Labour's election campaign -
as Labour Party chair.]
