    WOW. I wonder why that isn't splashed across all the front pages on Monday.
    Today is a perfect day to bury bad or controversial news. Coincidence anyone?

    “MASK HAS SLIPPED” AS TORY CANDIDATE ATTACKS NHS & PUBLIC SECTOR STAFF

    TORY CANDIDATE SLAMMED FOR ‘GROSSLY INAPPROPRIATE’ MESSAGES

    The SNP has said the “Tory mask has slipped” ahead of the Holyrood election in May - after a Tory candidate was slammed for attacking the pay of the NHS staff and vital frontline workers keeping Scotland safe during the pandemic.

    Sue Webber, who is the Tory candidate for Edinburgh Western, praised the decision to freeze public sector pay, saying it was “about time” and that she “was thinking about a vote-winning policy called salary sacrifice where they only get 80 per cent and have to struggle like the others on furlough.”

    She also claimed that “media and many politicians” were “creating panic and fear" over COVID-19 and appeared to play down the pandemic, saying “people die…more people die in winter.”

    Tory activists labelled the messages as “proper nasty Tory stuff” and revealed that party bosses ignored concerns about the candidate being placed in second place on the Tories’ Lothian region list.

    SNP candidate for Edinburgh Central Angus Robertson said:

    “To see a Tory candidate suggest docking the pay of all those who have been on the frontline keeping public services going during this pandemic is a disgrace.
    "Frontline workers have been working day-in day-out to keep Scotland safe from COVID-19, and Ms Webber's attempt to downplay the fight against this virus does a total disservice to them.

    “It is no surprise a person with these toxic views is standing for the party of Boris Johnson and Douglas Ross, it speaks volumes about the Tories.

    “The Tory mask has well and truly slipped and the party has a duty to address these comments. It's hard to see how Ms Webber can now remain as a candidate.

    “This is the most important election in Scotland’s history, and it comes down to a stark choice – who should decide the country’s future. Should it be the people of Scotland or Boris Johnson?"



    nasty tory ****, i despise the *******s

    Further evidence that it's Tory policy to starve the working classes.


    Do you think your security can keep you in purity, you will not shake us off above or below. Scottish friction, Scottish fiction

    She's only doing her job. Tory voters love this rhetoric and the actions which back them up.

    it's those i find the most detestable, it's them that put/keep the gits in power in the first place, the nasty tory MP's/MSP's are only doing what their nasty voters want at the end of the day

    It's about the UK unilaterally varying the terms of an international agreement, because they didn't realise that signing it had consequences. Now, lots more chances for the Express to think up witty headlines about how stroppy the EU are, and how great it is to have escaped.

    i must admit to shaking my head in disbelief at the outrageous childlike headlines that the daily express conjure up on a daily basis, absolutely hilarious, no wonder it was on sale for only 15p pretty recently, they seriously hate the EU as well as independence for Scotland... the daily comic

    i'm not sure astonishing is the apt word i should use for this PoS Tory...

    Tory MP branded 'callous' after claiming £1 expenses for parking to visit food bank - Mirror Online


    A Tory MP has been accused of “callousness” after he claimed £1 on expenses for a visit to a food bank.
    Royston Smith, the MP for Southampton Itchen, registered a claim to pay for car parking during a food bank visit in November last year, according to official records.

    Non-story imo. If he'd eaten £1 worth of their food, which as a consequence couldn't get to someone else more in need, that would be bad. Claiming expenses in the course of your work, probably #319891304379361493 on a list of what's most troubling about what current Tories are up to.

    we've probably all saw photos of PR stunts by tories down south visiting local foodbanks, whilst those using said foodbank appear to be grateful to the tory MP for visiting them...it's Bizarre

    Yea, I never understand these things. If I have to go to say London for work, the company pays for my train fair, underground in London, my car parking at the train station and lunch while I’m in London. If I have to work late I can get a snack in the evening on the way back.

    Don’t see a problem claiming carpark fees back. They are reasonable business expenses.

    Duck houses and moats getting dredged is another thing entirely.
