IT IS ONE RULE for TORY & THEIR CRONIES and ANOTHER FOR EVERYONE ELSE.
The Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick tackled cheats at an East London Tube station. Mr Jenrick said he saw “dozens of freeloaders” slip through at Stratford in an hour. He is told to “f*** off” as he pursues them in footage seen more than 12 million times.
He blasts station staff for failing to intervene, and asks: “What is the point of them if they don’t bother doing their job? “It shouldn’t be left to the public to enforce the law.”
Well, well, well, Mr Jenrick seem have amnesia or already have first signs of Alzheimer or Dementia. He was in the government since 2014 therefore, he was in government when the government cut more than a billion pounds from their policing budget.
He was in government when the government removed Transport for London’s [TfL] operating grant, and now he’s criticising the consequences of the cuts in policing and TfL made by his government! How stupid and desperate is this.
Let me remind Mr Jenrick that the government cut their operating grant to Transport for London [TFL] back in 2015, and he was part of this government.
The Tory frontbencher Jenrick, currently the shadow justice secretary, filmed himself pursuing members of the public who snuck onto the tube without paying last week. Mr Jenrick claimed lawbreaking was “out of control” in London, that the capital’s mayor Khan was “driving a proud city into the ground” and that one in 25 Tube-users do not pay for their journeys.
That is like his wife who forgot to clap when Kemi Badenoch was “inaugurated” as new Tory leader and not her husband Mr Jenrick.
However, this is not the only Jenrick's lapsus. Seems that Mr Jenrick does cannot recall what he done back in 2020 when he was Housing Minister in the government when he admitted unlawfully signing off a 1,500-home development that saved Tory Party donors millions of pounds.
The £1bn project on the former Westferry Printworks site on London’s Isle of Dogs was approved in January 2020 by Jenrick despite that then the Independent Planning Inspectorate and Council declined and refused the project on basis lacked enough affordable housing and conflicted with local conservation policy.
But the housing secretary’s decision (at that time Mr Jenrick) came just a day before Tower Hamlets Council approved a new rate for its Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) – a move that would have increased the property owner’s financial liability to the local authority by between £30m and £50m.
That money would have been spent mitigating the impact of the development on the local area, and improving local services. Instead, thanks to Jenrick’s timing, it stayed in the pocket of the developer.
Make no mistake: The building used to be the Daily Express printworks on the Millwall waterfront. The land is owned by Northern & Shell, which is in turn owned by publishing magnate and former Tory donor Richard Desmond.
This whole debacle is further evidence that Tory government was always more interested in serving billionaires rather than local people, not to just one of many examples of Tory ministers showing it is one rule for them and their cronies, and another for everyone else.
If I am not mistaken, Mr Jenrick being using Ozempic. Ozempic results in rapid weight loss and does so very effectively. This, of course, will lead to rapid loss of subcutaneous (under the skin) facial fat. The overlying skin however will not be able to shrink at the same rate, resulting in a sagging, droopy and wrinkled appearance. However, Ozempic-style weight loss drugs were recently linked to symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation, as well as an increased risk of vision loss.
Mr Jenrick, are you depressed?
