Rosie Duffield quits as Labour MP with attack on Keir Starmer
She says she is leaving the party over the PM's "cruel" policies and "hypocrisy" at accepting gifts.
You're viewing a single thread.
In her resignation letter, published by the Sunday Times, external, the Canterbury MP lambasts the prime minister for accepting gifts worth tens of thousands of pounds while scrapping the winter fuel payment and keeping the two-child benefit cap.
Very funny thing for someone who accepted a £10k private donation and didn't vote on the winter fuel payment to say. Shouldn't expect moral consistency from a transphobe.
I don’t think you’ve read this. They are donations directly to a campaign fund. Are you drawing equivalence to accepting clothes for a spouse or a holiday in New York ?
For the winter fuel payment, abstention or having the whip removed, as is nearly always case in British parliamentary politics .
I did read it, I just think it demonstrates the same problem as Stramer's freebies, rich people pushing money around in policies to buy influence.
