Anyone else wouldn't be given so long

I’m interested in the fact that he claims to have received £51k from the proceeds of sale of the family home. Assume that was the property in St Margaret's Bay. It was purchased for £850k and sold for £1.5m so I’m a little confused as to where all the money has gone? What about the London property- not in joint names? Frankly not sure it all rings true.

There’s a lot of work available for anyone who is really interested in clearing their debts. Just need to listen to the radio or read the papers everyday to know how may sectors are crying out for workers because the employers can’t fulfil contacts or run their businesses at full strength.
Get a job Charlie!

From Brian's link...." considering work on a building site to come up with the money.".... I guess that is in the same way I am considering going up in a rocket to the moon. For a supposedly intelligent well educated man he certainly comes up with some ridiculous and lame excuses.
I would have thought there would be a fair number of potential sympathetic employers willing to make use of his legal and parliamentary knowledge if he was serious about repaying his debts.

I do feel your right Janet , at the end of the day if he is serious in wanting to rid himself of debt there are jobs out there .
Maybe some he wouldn't choose to do
But maybe that's not the choice he should be taking

Forcing Elphicke to travel 45 minutes on the bus from Hammersmith to Feltham Jobcentre is surely a punishment too far.
We have to hope his 'industrious writing' bears fruit soon; the thought of Natalie (yes, it's her thread after all) discovering him, starved and defeated, his literary promise unfulfilled, limp in his garret, is too horrible to contemplate.

Do returning to our Nat.
People I speak to I have not heard any have a good word for her , even those passionate Tories .
I once recall chatting to a dep leader (conservative) at the time when he was leafleting around my area, he always told me how much he disliked charlie boy
Do I asked him, so why are you leafleting to get jom elected ?
He replied he's the Tory candidate and thats the party I want elected

As I’ve said previously- I’ve been a Tory voter all my life but I will never vote Tory again until they select a candidate worthy of my vote. I’m afraid that I won’t vote for whomever the Party select if I don’t have any respect for them. The whole system is totally rotten.

The last two posters have illustrated the difference between a party supporter and the average voter who actually chooses who to vote for. When a party ignores the latter they are in trouble and often loose that seat especially during local elections and to a slightly lesser degree general elections.

Hey, Ray, don't quote me on this but it's possible that Natalie is coming round to preferring trade with our continental trading partners to that with Rest of World partners. Re-elected as Vice Chairman of the Maritime and Ports All Party Parliamentary Group, she says of Dover:
"Trade through other ports can be so slow and cumbersome. Container ships can be polluting and take ages to arrive and unload. They also take up land for storage, when land is a finite national resource. In my parliamentary role I will be underlining the need for speed and why Roll on-Roll off is the best for our economy and environment alike."
https://natalieelphicke.com/2022/05/03/promoting-port-of-dover-in-parliamentary-role/
Either that or she's gone completely round the marina bend, given that she's pictured standing in front of a load of containers (although I suppose they could be a motel).

I have no links to any party so I'm not sure where your post is coming from!
I merely pointed out a casual conversation that took place , and I'm sure if someone else had made same comment it would just have been accepted and maybe not even commented on .
This probably gives me the opportunity on two fronts
1 the forum attempts to engage people to post
And over the years it has taken many twists and
Turns including moving it's politics to a different
Page, although I still don't support this,the more
Important thing is to encourage people to post .
Both as a cllr ten years ago! And as an
Individual now I have seen cllrs come on here,
Give a view , then are hounded off because
Forumites may not share that view.
2. I'm sure that local elections people vote more
For the person than a party this I proved when I
Stood as a community representative against
Labour and conservative.
A lot of my comments are from local people in my
Area who are like many in the District, lost on the
Political front, unable to support any of the
Parties which then they joing the 65% or more
Of people who decide not to vote !.

I have sympathy with both points made by Keith. I stopped posting for some time because of my frustration at trying to make valid and considered arguments/comment on a variety of topics but faced with loyal “party “ supporters who appeared unable or unwilling to even consider that the “party” could be wrong. I gave up posting.
On point 2, at a very local level people are concerned about what happens in their village/ local environment and vote accordingly, but as we can see from the problems at Aycliffe it all goes pear shaped as matters get escalated to people who have the ability to make financial and strategic decisions. That’s when the electorate becomes frustrated and stops voting.
As far as Brexit was concerned, however you voted the whole thing was badly flawed. Did no one give any consideration to the damage such a close result would cause? Surely to build in a margin of difference (simply as an example) of perhaps 25%, so that if, as happened, the vote was more or less 50-50 nothing changed until the electorate had more information would have been advisable. No one has emerged happy and the damage has been enormous no matter how people voted.

For a start my name is Jan and has been since I joined this group.
Secondly obviously I was referring to the person that
you mentioned in your conversation. We all know you no longer have links to any party, you tell us often enough.

If Tobias Elwood or Tom Tugendhat stood for our constituency, I would vote for them in a trice. Sadly, we have a governing party bereft of integrity, honesty and common sense. That's how we end up with the likes of Natalie, Nadine, Shapps and Patel amongst too many others to list.
The only criteria to succeed under Laughing Boy's leadership were to bow to the mantra of 'get Brexit done' and never to question the appalling record of lies, hypocrisy, selfishness and moral vacuity that this sad individual has stood for throughout his life. Thank you, those 60,000 party members who inflicted this upon the country.

He doesn't pee of the right people, Reggie. He just makes most people who place any value on honesty and integrity despair. North Shropshire proved that. Glad that he keeps you happy though.

We have dispaired at the honesty and integrity of politicians all my life, maybe you have a short memory but please do tell a time when this wasn't the case?
So yes keep smiling because no amount of wailing, railing or inveighing will make a damned bit of difference.
