- The Conservative party admits it has known about at least some of the allegations against Mark Menzies for months - but only suspended the whip in the last day. It's launched an investigation - which is just as well, as the accusations against the Fylde MP are the kind that only beg more questions.
Among them are claims he used campaign funds to pay off quote, "bad people" who'd locked him in his flat in the early hours of the morning. He disputes all the allegations.

*Accountability*
They knew for months, did nothing, only removed whip because the story came out.
It's the "integrity, professionalism and accountability" that Rishi had promised us.
Neither party has trustworthy members. Remember the paedophile Labour council of Rotherham? Both parties have people who are either corrupt, incompetent or doing things that would turn one's stomach. You might get a few decent ones but they usually do not have the power to do much.
how long have the Liebour party known about Raynor's little fiddles? oh, she is still on the bench!
@@rockfan3299you're comparing this to raynor putting the wrong address on a form? You posh twats are finished 😂 just accept defeat already
What is the story? They haven't mentioned anything here.
The rent boy / coke industry is going to have layoffs when the Tories are gone.
If you'd listened to the piece, you'd know it's not just the Tories. Look at news about the SNP today, for instance. Too many in politics are the wrong people for the wrong reasons
@@mustafa1nametories are using rentboys mate stop defending them
@@IbrahimMohamed-kw7vi Another one who doesn't listen to the piece they're commenting on. Short attention span?
Help me -- we have run out of coke,and booze.
Yeah, but 5 grand s to much.
@@newanas5271 it seems like a lot for you and me but if you are in a certain income tax bracket its loose change.......
@deancarter981 I get what u mean, but if its just to buy more booze and drugs few hundreds will do. Maybe he was off his head .
@deancarter981 mean he's on 90 grand. Ita over 5% yearly income
Vote Reform UK!
'misuse' = stealing to the rest of us
Crooks in suits
@@kbolton9399 one day we may live in a world where it's the rest of us 99% against the 1% corrupt elite rather than, as it's always been, the other way around 🤞
The tories just keep digging themselves a deeper hole
I love watching their polling numbers, including Rishi's popularity, descend to historic lows.
It looks like the only holes they are interested in are found on grindr 😂.
@@tonyblakemore2355 ba-dum-tsh!
@@hg82met it's a good sign indeed, there is some hope for the future
Wont be much about this on GB news the comedy channel.
They been covering it all day saying he should be sacked as an MP
GB Beebies more like
The ' new information ' was he was caught and it got published, its always the cover up that is the more damaging.
Why you would ask 4 chaps Shapps anything about corruption is laughable.
And meanwhile, we get Wanker Shapps trotted out yet again to not answer any questions!!
Hilarious that a man with 3 aliases is seen as the marker for integrity.
You mean Michael Green? Probably you mean Corinne Stockheath. Damn if only I could remember what he was called today/what cabinet job he's in this week...
GENERAL ELECTION NOW
If he was prepared to hand over £6500, who's to say he wasn't prepared to hand over sensitive data stored on his phone? Which is potentially much more valuable.
Westminster is full of 5th columnists
Westminster is one big den of iniquity 😡
The world is one big den of iniquity: playing holier than thou doesn't work, because no one really is.
Oh do shut up. If you STOLE money from your employer you would be CONVICTED and imprisoned. The same should apply to the elite but people such as you defend them. We expect more from these over privileged idiots and so we should!
a disgrace & totally unacceptable .
Why were the police not informed about the “bad people” who were “holding” him and wanted thousands of pounds in what seems to have been a honey trap?
Or did he just need lots of money for a pissed off drug dealer? None of his explanation adds up.
or demanding payment for an unpaid debt? Goods supplied but he couldn't/wouldn't pay?? Seems very much like a plot line from a Guy Ritchie film!
How many Tory scandals so far???? I haven’t the fingers or toes to count on💁🏾♀️😆
200 Liebour politicians suspended in the past 3 years... how many cover ups?
@@rockfan3299 200? Is your source GBNews? Name them please.
Another Tory scandal, anyone surprised? 😂
With all the sleaze by Labour and Conservative, time to vote Reform UK.
@@daryllportas8453 Laughable.
Their won't be any accountability their the real criminals

*there ^they're ... 2 in one sentence, and you are able to vote!
@@rockfan3299welcome to the Brexit vote….
I bet this wont stay in the Murdoch press for weeks.

Sign the petition: Require all MPs to publish all of their current and previous tax returns
What is up with Torys?????? This makes 8 does it not?
slightly less than the 200 Liebour! oh dear
Sleaze never went away.
What suprise, who would have thought it from the Tories, I'm so shocked!!!!
how's Raynor doing?
@@rockfan3299Ok at the moment, but if she is found guilty, I’d imagine the investigations will focus on more of the Tories committing the same!
With all the sleaze by Labour and Conservative, time to vote Reform UK.
Yet another sleazy Tory
With all the sleaze by Labour and Conservative, time to vote Reform UK.
‘’vote Reform’’ 😂
The day the poor stands up against the rich, The world will be at peace 👍
Thr internet is the scary thing linking all this. People just don't seem to be able to handle their urges once the internet is involved. Where do we start tackling that problem?
He loves ... really loves ....
Rent boys .
Why not reimburse this campaign person FROM HIS OWN FUNDS???? WAS HE ON ELECTORAL BUSINESS TO JUSTIFY THIS USE.
Such a natural and convincingly heartfelt smile on his publicity shot
How long will it be until they all crack up?
Strange, many people would pay good money to get a Tory MP OUT of their place.
Everytime I watch the news ,I think that I must have died and slipped into some sort of parallel existence that bears little resemblance to reality , 😮
What's the betting the Tories end up sitting behind Plaid Cymru
Wow! The sleeze in this party is worse than the public. Shamefull!
How unsurprising a tory caught telling lies....i guess we should be happy he hasnt been sending pictures of his.... to ....
"They may have even more concerns today" 😂😂😂
Boy he really took the whole Latin American envoy thing to heart.
Why wouldn't the guy have that kind of money? Does he have a gambling addiction?
exactly that was my first thought ! MP`s get more than 70k a year + expenses and he didnt have a spare 5k in his current account, THAT is scary to me !
How long is 'some time'?
If he took the money, is that not fraud or theft? If they knew about a crime (fraud or theft) and didn't report is that not perverting the course of justice? Where's the blue tent in his front garden?
How many s lifters are sitting in Westminster????
They knew this for ages & now act so amazed & shocked public mo ey is there personal bank acccount
About time these mps had independent fit and propper tests and there account checked seen as there payed with public money
Poor Mark kidnapped at 3 am thankfully super Nan kicks in with 6and half large to sort it why the fuss albeit noted with of previous
Luckily for them there is no such thing as social media .....oh wait a minute . They just can 't help themselves .
I was impressed by the interest shown by the Labour MPs who were on the screen while Lucy Powell was speaking.
To be fair one of them give the impression that she may have been listening.
See what happens to him, the Labour Party is no better, and I'll be voting for Reform UK
Competition with the shocking number of Labour MPs being investigated then.
Oh yes! I reckon Labour are winning in fact...
@@andipeters743well, they're certainly winning in the polls; by 25 points in the latest I believe
@@Boghopper1979 Is that one point for every dodgy M.P. then? Nah, that wouldn't be enough I'm sure.
What about the drug sweeps on SNP front bench in the House of Commons revealing signs of coke having been used ?
What is going on with the Tory party? It's one thing after another ... they're not alone, obviously, but I begin to see why parties are going to such huge lengths to ensure the absolute probity of their candidates (often at the cost of local democratic choice). However, it's the crisis you DON'T see coming that puts the torpedo through your hull in the end; Labour found that with Afzhar Ali - though they were apparently warned - prompting me to think that maybe parties should stop being so sensitive about and frightened of gaffes, and even exposure of criminality, and frankly admit that human beings are fallible and you can never be sure there's nothing nasty lurking in the woodshed. In other words - if a candidate or MP turns out to be a wrong 'un, maybe just accept that it could happen to anyone, and stop trying to make capital out of it. Political discourse would be a lot healthier - and I speak as a long-serving party political agent: experienced enough to know that there is no certainty about anything in life and politics, except death, and parties ought to grow up and accept it.
David Kurten Heritage Party We are now in our fourth year since we launched as a party in autumn 2020. This is a vital year for us as there is likely to be a General Election at the end of 2024. We will also be contending local elections in England and the London Assembly election next May.
In the UK, the old political parties continue to work in lockstep together to allow perverse materials into classrooms for Relationships and Sexuality Education, permit open borders with unprecedented levels of both illegal and legal immigration, and make war on motorists with increasingly onerous restrictions on travel for ordinary citizens such as LTNs, 15-minute cities and the ULEZ.
The Heritage Party is the only UK-wide party that will end the climate emergency hoax and lift all restrictions on carbon dioxide emissions. We will ensure that people can continue to buy and use petrol and diesel cars and keep gas boilers in their homes. We will repeal regulations that require homes to have SMART meters and meet impossible new building emissions criteria, designed to force the abandonment of older buildings that are a precious part of our heritage.
We will introduce a Child Protection Bill to protect children from propaganda that attempts to confuse them with gender ideology or groom them into early sexual activity. We will also control our borders by pushing illegal boats back across the Channel and introducing strict caps on student and work visas while ensuring we train enough young British people to do the jobs that need to be done in this country. I Edward say that if anyone votes Lib/Lab/ Con or any other left wing parties they need their head examined. Heritage could, with your help make Britain great again. Anyone who votes labour or tory or any other left wing party need their head examined
It ain’t just the tories they’re all bent and on one fiddle or another . Self serving opportunists one and all

Don't you get jailed for comitting fraud?.
I heard the money was for his Brazilian rent boy.
Who were the " bad " people ? Teflon Tories but their time is up. Police need to investigate.

Damn, and what else is news ..... just REFORM UK...!!!
Tonight Mathew I'm going to be Sniff Richards
Taking the heat of Rayner !!
Did the Tory's figure out what they are accusing her of yet?
No wonder they've been flailing about trying to smear her the last few weeks. They knew this story would break at some point.
Vile
Nice 'N' Sleazy.
Parliament, the judiciary and the media is full of people like this hence the promotion of "trans" and the glorification of people "coming out". I expect Jeremy Hunt will praise his courage within the coming days.
I can't believe there are people still willing to vote for Tories!!! They are like Turkies who vote for Christmas 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
He Eat the Poo Poo 😊
over 200 labour politicians suspended around the country in the past few years..... not a word! How is Angela Raynor doing by the way?
@1:57 🍼😍🍼
All these MP just have to resign for criminals activities! These people need to be sent to jail to send a msg! Absolutely a joke!
what about the 200 plus labour mps , either charged or going to court , for child abuse , some violent , and fraud , and stealing from letter boxes whilst compaining , that is from 2022 to now not very long is it ... those that have been caught . starmer should have faced charges for his part in the covid drinks and curry he had hundreds of miles away from his home to a working mans club in durham , while we could not go out he chose to mix without a mask with strangers not in his working bubble like boris did in his own home but starmer had to break all the rules and we , only for an hour to walk and get air , yet he kept on and on about boris , who did not do half of what he did . but dont you find the more you look into the labour party their not true labour because what person would buy not one council house but another and another and make £46 , 000 profit and then do it again that is not labour , to take a council house whilst living somewhere else from another person that needs a house , you may think conservitives are bad but labour is worse , go and vote lets have some people with guts to say how we feel , and are man enough to do something about it dont sit there on voting day show the country you our british with british values that you want to keep , vote Reform lets have a change . the laws in place for several things including sending them to rowanda , and stoping the boats comming here , and stoping these marches that show hatred for our country our flag , our King and the people in it . the so called lords need to be disbanded they and the civil servants run this country and put it in the state its in now , they have know input in this at all , Rishi should go a head with it all before its too late and starmer gets in with open doors to all , uk know more ..................
